Travel Scooter
Travel scooters have been developed to be extremely lightweight. Some fold, while others are disassembled into smaller pieces.
Our lightweight mobility scooters can ascend an incline of 8% and navigate cobblestone streets. They also have larger front tires for better performance on rough terrain. Some models even have a rear-mounted hitch to carry boxes or baskets.
Lightweight
The light-weight structure of travel scooters makes them easy to carry and lift. They are ideal for those who need to travel by car or plane. They can be easily stowed in the trunk of a vehicle or checked as baggage on a plane.
Our ultra-lightweight Scooters use TIG-welded 7005 aircraft-grade aluminum that has been heat-treated for the frames and other parts. This type of welding produces welds that are more durable, cleaner and more attractive than the typical MIG welding used in nearly every other mobility scooter made today. This means that the frame of our lightweight scooter weighs less than half of the weight of the competition. This means you can carry your scooter with more mobility over greater distances and more difficult terrain.
Our scooters are also built so that the user's weight is placed on the drivewheel. This reduces the tendency of front-wheel drive scooters to spin out on inclines or uneven surfaces. The result is a smoother ride and a significant reduction in the costly repairs associated with front-wheel damage.
Another advantage of our ultra-lightweight mobility scooters is their rubber tires that are solid. They are more durable than pneumatic tires (air) used on the majority of scooters, and they are much easier to maneuver on rough roads or unpaved ones. Rubber tires that are solid are quieter than pneumatics, and they don't stick to obstacles.
It is crucial to take into account the total weight of a mobility scooter including the battery when deciding on the best one for your requirements. Use our filters at the top of the page to sort products by specifications, such as "heaviest pieces" which defines the combined weight of the chair and battery pack.
Our scooters utilize the modern lithium-ion batteries, which are extremely compact and lightweight. They also have an impact-resistant case that has a UL 94-5VB flame rating to ensure your safety. The batteries are made from 100% Panasonic cells and are constructed to last for a long time. The batteries are able to be quickly removed to transport them or make storage easier, if required.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters can be folded into a compact size to fit inside the trunk of your SUV or car. Some of them even break down into smaller pieces for easier transport. This makes them perfect for air travel, as IATA luggage restrictions on suitcase dimensions apply. You can also purchase an exclusive scooter case to help protect your mobility scooter's folding mechanism from scuffs and moisture during transport.
You can put your scooter in the garage, basement or attic when it's not being used. If you don't have access to these areas, a spare room or closet can be used. It is important to select an area that is dry and protected away from direct sunlight, to stop the sun's rays from destroying the rubber and plastic components and possibly cause corrosion.
Depending on the model that you select, the scooter may come with either the basket or box to help you with your shopping needs. You can also connect an accessory for luggage to the frame and tow it behind when you ride.
These scooters are compact and light, which means you can easily take them anywhere. Even in a busy city such as San Francisco. They can be used for an easy stroll in the park, go for time shopping, or discover a new destination that you've always wanted.
It's a good idea compare the weights of different models when shopping for a scooter. This will help you decide which one is suitable for you. When you are choosing a scooter, you should also think about the battery's capacity and lifespan.
If you are looking for a scooter which can be easily stored you should look for models that fold up or disassemble into smaller pieces. Some fold electronically with the press of a button, while others require you to take off the seat and manually fold the unit manually.
In the event of long-term storage for your scooter it is a good idea for you to spray an anti-rust or corrosion inhibitor over it. This is particularly crucial in areas with high humidity. You should also avoid storing your scooter in extreme temperatures, because high temperatures can harm the battery, while low temperatures could cause it to freeze and break down.
Simple to operate
A travel scooter has all the advantages of a mobility scooter, but in a more compact package. The controls are simple to use and you can adjust your tiller to the position that is most comfortable for you. Many of the models we carry have long-lasting batteries, as well as a convenient battery monitor.
We recommend that you store your travel scooter in a climate-controlled area, as extreme temperatures can affect the performance and life of lithium batteries. Keeping your scooter close to a power source will aid in maintaining optimal charging conditions.
Make sure your mobility scooter is clean. Dust can cause friction between moving parts, which can cause damage to internal electrical components. If you don't want to keep your scooter in the garage or shed, you can buy a waterproof storage cover to shield it from the sun and rain. Some of these covers have security features like locks to deter theft.
If you are ready to ride again, make sure you give your scooter a thorough inspection before heading out the door. Check for signs of excessive wear or deterioration, such as a broken light, a loose handlebar, or tires or controls that are not in good condition. This will ensure that your mobility device is in good condition and will provide you with a long life span of years.
We have a range of accessories that will enable you to carry more luggage your travel scooter. Our Smart Luggage Kit comes with an accessory system that allows you to attach two smaller suitcases as well as a cabin-sized case to the back of your travel scooter. We also recommend using two-wheeled suitcases since they are smaller which means you can save precious interior storage space. Furthermore, two-wheeled suitcases are compliant with IATA air-travel regulations regarding the maximum dimensions of a suitcase. This means that you can travel with your full scooter load without having to pay extra baggage charges. Our travel scooters are an excellent option for vacationers as well as frequent travellers.
Easy to store
Travel scooters can be broken down into smaller, portable pieces that can be easily transported in your car. They can be conveniently stored in the trunk of your car, at your side on a bus or train or even checked into an airplane for long journeys. These scooters that are lightweight are already assembled which makes them simple for users to assemble upon arrival at their destination.
Some models come with a handy carrying bag or case that allows for ease of transport and use. The bags are fitted with handles and straps, which allow users to carry the scooter by hand on their shoulders or arms without straining their back or neck. This is especially helpful for those who need to move your scooter between public transportation modes or between vehicles for local transport.
Most travel scooters have a removable seat that can be stored under the chassis or in front of the user’s feet when the scooter isn't being used. electric mobility makes the scooter smaller and easier for storage in restricted spaces. It also allows riders to access any additional features they may require, like a front basket or caddy.
Another excellent feature of travel scooters is their smaller turning radius, which helps them navigate tight areas like the doors of apartments and homes. Some travel scooters feature an front-wheel suspension that provides extra stability when riding on uneven terrain.
Maintaining your scooter's cleanliness and safe during transit is vital for your safety and health. Cover it by a tarp or a cover at all times. Avoid exposing it to extreme conditions which can reduce the battery life and harm the frame and other components.
Lastly, when purchasing your travel scooter, be certain to inquire with your airline regarding their specific rules and regulations for bringing mobility scooters ontoboard. Most airlines will allow them to be carried in checked baggage or with special approval. However, you might be required to present the manufacturer's certificate and other documents that prove that the batteries conform to the specifications of the manufacturer. Some carriers also have limitations on the type and size of battery that you are allowed to bring and it is a good idea to read the rules and guidelines prior to when you depart.
