If youre even slightly interested in buying a scooter or just curious about what the culture of entry-level level riding is all about then I highly recommend checking this place out! As soon as you drive up in the parking lot you can just feel this place is a good kind of different! The atmosphere in the shop has a warm nostalgic setting straight from the 60s and 70s, and that certainly isnt a knock to its roots! To my surprise, the experience truly started the moment I took a step through the front door! For me, hearing the familiar vinyl rock music playing in the background and seeing those shiny new bikes (and some used) was creating that perfect riding ambiance and offered me an instant cathartic feeling to the already inviting atmosphere! It was then extremely easy for me to realize that this lifestyle is more deeply apart of me than what I had ever known before... And certainly from that moment on, you too will feel right at home! Seth was an amazing salesman who was clearly very deeply rooted into the riding culture! I feel that his involvement within the riding community absolutely enhanced my overall experience at Metro Scooter! He was extremely knowledgeable about all of the products within the store and he was easily able to answer all of my novice riding questions and even the more technical/mechanical questions about the scooters! I will say this, becoming a part of this particular riding culture is undeniably and extremely humbling. However the best part of this experience, in my opinion, is that its absolutely a necessary step in finding out who you are as a rider (entry-level or experienced) and how deeply connected you may already be into the riding culture itself! Happy scootin, Ill see you on the road! -Jason

There arent a lot of options when it comes to scooter dealers in Cincinnati, but I guarantee if there were youd still be coming to Metro. When I first decided I wanted a scooter; I went to them just to check out the Stella and browse. Visually, the store has a mod vintage style that I personally love, and it fits Metro perfectly. The only thing better than the store, is the people youll find inside. Seth, Parker, and Daves knowledge of every scooter they have on the floor is impressive to say the least. If you have questions, youll get a sincere honest and very specific answer from them. If youre unsure about whether or not its for you, just walk in and talk to anyone there. These guys are scooter enthusiasts, and its hard not to feel the same after talking to them. Its apparent that they really pride themselves on being reliable dealers who can you can count on for your routine maintenance and/or repair. Theyre not going to sell you a scooter that they know isnt high quality, so dont expect them to have a large selection of brands. Just know that if you decide to buy from them that they will do whatever it takes to make sure that you absolutely love your scooter. After purchasing my scooter from them I know I would never go anywhere else. Ask any scooterist around town, they all know and love the guys at Metro, and with good reason.

I called in to inquire about a belt for my scooter. Not only was I cut off mid sentence and told to hold, the employee was extremely rude. After I finally spoke with someone, I asked about help finding the belt part or dimensions of the belt on my scooter. After about 10 seconds of "googling it for me" he told me to try a moped website (that is unrelated to scooters) . He then told me belts do not come with "dimensions" just parts numbers. Which is incorrect as after I called another shop I was finally able to find the part that I need. Employees also decided to tell me "Ive been doing this for 11 years, so I know what Im talking about". Apparently not. I dont recommend calling these people for help. As you are just going to be told you dont know what your talking about and that your wrong.

If you are thinking about buying a scooter, start at Metro Scooter because you dont need to shop anywhere else. We were looking for a scooter to use while camping. We met Seth who showed us a number of options and sold us a Genuine Buddy. Seths knowledgeable, straight-forward, honest approach convinced us that this scooter would be perfect for us. When we picked up the scooter, Seth had another Buddy that would make for a matching pair. We had a couple of days to think it over and were so pleased with the first sale that we ended up with 2 scooters. Seth advised us on the best scooter hauler and showed us how to load and tie down the scooter. He gave us tips on starting, stopping, kickstands and covers. Thanks and watch for us on the roads!

This is THE PLACE to go for scooters in Cincinnati. Very helpful, friendly, and provide tons of info for folks like me who are new to the world of two-wheel motorized travel. Far less expensive, time-consuming and a heck of alot more fun than riding on the Metro bus. My friend made a mistake of buying a cheap used knock-off brand scooter off craigslist as his first experience - wasted alota time and energy to get it to run and was very unreliable. Scooters are an unbeatable alternative to driving a car. - wish I had known about them 5 years ago.

Metro Scooter is THE place to go if youre looking for a scooter!! I was very undecided about what I wanted and Seth was happy to email back and forth with me on a friday evening explaining what they had in stock and talking about scooters in general. I had a motorcycle and we discussed the benefits of a scooter vs a motorcycle. When I stopped in on Saturday everyone was so friendly and helpful, I ended up buying a Vespa and I absolutely love it!!! You simply cant go wrong shopping here!!!

I recently purchased a scooter from Metro Scooter. I love my scooter, what a joy to ride. Mitchell explained alot to me about the scooters, Seth taught me how to operate one. The selections and services are excellent! If you are in the market for a fun and enjoyable ride, please stop by and see Metro Scooter. They also offer maintenance services for their products. Prices are reasonable, staff is definitely knowledgeable and service cant be beaten. Kudos to Metro Scooter!!!

Never owned a scooter or motorcycle before I came to Metro. Seth was amazing, knowing everything about every scooter out there, which really helped me select what would be best. Ive made 2 purchases there since 2006, and have been nothing short of totally satisfied with the products + exceptional customer service.

Bought a sweet red Stella Auto 125 from Metro in August 2014. Parker was great to deal with -- he was very patient in answering all of my questions and even gave me honest advice on a used Vespa I was considering. There was no sales pressure at all. I really cant recommend them highly enough!
