Pro scooter sizing
Pro scooter size for a 6'0" rider
A 6'0" rider fits a pro scooter about 36 to 39 in tall from the ground to the top of the bars, which is roughly 24.5 to 27.5 in of bar on a standard 110 to 120 mm wheel setup. Park and trick riders sit at the low end; street riders and anyone still growing can go to the high end, since bars can be cut but never extended.

Questions riders ask
What size pro scooter for a 6'0" rider?
About 36 to 39 in total height, measured from the ground to the top of the bars, so the bars land between hip and waist. Listings usually quote bar height alone; add about 11.5 in for the fork, deck and wheel to get total height. For a 6'0" rider that is a bar of roughly 24.5 to 27.5 in.
Should pro scooter bars be at the hips or the waist?
Between the two. Lower bars (near the hips) make bar spins and tailwhips easier and suit park riding; higher bars (near the waist) are more comfortable for cruising and street riding and leave room to grow. If the scooter is a gift for a growing rider, choose the high end and cut the bars down later if needed.
How wide should pro scooter bars be?
Roughly shoulder width. For a 6'0" rider that usually means 22 to 24 in. Wider bars give more leverage for big tricks; narrower bars are easier for smaller riders to control. Like height, width can be trimmed but not added.
