Travel Scooter
Travel scooters are designed to be incredibly mobile. Some travel scooters fold, while others can be disassembled into smaller pieces.
Our lightweight mobility scooters are able to traverse cobblestone roads as well as climb an 8percent slope. The front tires are larger to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models have a hitch mounted at the rear to carry boxes or baskets.
Lightweight
The light-weight structure of travel scooters makes them simple to lift and move. This is why they are ideal for those who need to travel, whether by plane or car. They are easy to fit into the trunk of your car or be checked as baggage on a flight.
Our ultra-lightweight Scooters utilize aluminum that has been treated with heat and then TIG-welded for frames and other parts. This type of welding results in welds that are more durable, cleaner and more attractive than the standard MIG welding used in nearly all other mobility scooters made today. As a result, the frame of our lightest scooter weighs less than half of the weight of the other models. This allows you to transport your scooter over longer distances or on more difficult terrains.
Our scooters are also designed to ensure that the rider's body weight is placed over the drivewheel. This prevents front-wheel-drives scooters to spin on uneven or sloped surfaces. The result is a smoother ride and a significant reduction in the expensive repairs resulting from front-wheel damage.
Another advantage of our ultra-lightweight mobility scooters are their solid rubber tires. They are more durable than pneumatic tires (air) that are found on many scooters, and are easier to maneuver over rough roads or unpaved ones. Solid rubber tires are quieter than pneumatics and don't stick to obstacles.
It is important to take into account the total weight of a mobility scooter including the battery when choosing the best one for your needs. Use our filters at top of page to filter products by specifications, such as "heaviest pieces" which defines the combined weight of chair and battery pack.
Our scooters come with the latest lithium-ion battery technology. It is extremely light and compact. They also feature an impact-resistant case that has a UL 94-5VB flame rating to ensure your safety. These batteries are made of 100 percent Panasonic cells and are constructed to last. The batteries are able to be easily disassembled for transportation or storage.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters fold easily to fit in the trunk of your van, car or SUV. They can even be disassembled into smaller pieces for easier transport. They are great for air travel where IATA luggage regulations for dimensions of the suitcase are in place. You can also purchase a scooter case which will shield your mobility scooter from scratches and moisture while in transit.
You can put your scooter in the garage, basement, or attic when it's not in use. If these spaces aren't accessible then a closet or spare bedroom will do just fine. It's important to choose an area that is dry and protected, out of direct sunlight, to prevent the sun's rays from destroying the rubber and plastic components and potentially causing corrosion.
Depending on the model you choose, the scooter might come with either the basket or box to assist you with your shopping needs. You can also put the luggage hitch to the frame and tow it behind while riding.
They are small and light, which means you can take them everywhere. Even in small electric mobility scooter like San Francisco. You can take them for a stroll through the park or go shopping. They are also ideal for exploring a new city you've always wanted to visit.
It's a great idea to examine the weights of various models when looking for a scooter. This will help you determine which one is best for you. In addition, be sure to take into account the battery's life span and capacity before deciding on the right scooter.
If you are seeking a scooter that is easy to store, look for models that fold or quickly disassemble into smaller pieces. Some scooters fold at the press of a single button, while others require you to remove the seat and manually collapse it.
It's also a good idea to apply an anti-rust spray or corrosion inhibitor on your scooter prior to storage for long periods particularly in areas that are prone to humidity and other environmental factors that may affect the condition of your scooter. It is also important to avoid storing your scooter in extreme temperatures because high temperatures can damage the battery and low temperatures could cause it to melt and freeze.
Simple to Operate
With a travel scooter, you have all the convenience of an ordinary mobility scooter in a compact package. The controls are easy to use, and you can adjust the tiller so that you can place it in the most comfortable position for you. A lot of the models we carry also feature long-lasting batteries and an easy-to-use battery monitor.
We suggest storing your travel scooter in a climate controlled area as extreme temperatures could affect the performance and life of lithium batteries. Keep your scooter close to an electric source for optimal charging.
It is crucial to keep your mobility scooter clean because dust can increase friction between moving parts and end up damaging internal electrical components. If you don't want to store your scooter in a garage or shed, you can get an outdoor storage cover to shield it from rain and sunlight. Some of these covers come with security features such as locks that stop theft.
When you are ready to ride again, make sure you give your scooter a quick once-over before heading out the door. Examine for signs of wear or damage, such as a damaged light, a loose handlebar, or missing tires or controls. This will ensure that your mobility scooter is prepared to go and will continue to provide you with reliable service for many years to come.
We have a wide range of accessories that enable you to carry more luggage on your travel scooter. Our Smart Luggage Kit comes with a carrier system which allows you to attach two smaller suitcases as well as a cabin-sized suitcase to the back of your travel scooter. We also recommend using two-wheel suitcases because they are more compact which means you can save valuable storage space in your interior. Two-wheel suitcases also comply with IATA air travel regulations regarding maximum dimensions for suitcases. Therefore, you can fly with your full scooter load without having to pay extra baggage fees. This is an advantage that makes our travel scooters a great option for vacationers and frequent travelers as well.
Easy to store
Travel scooters can be cut into smaller, compact pieces that can be easily transported in your car. They can easily fit in the trunk of a car, at your side while on a bus or train or even tucked into an airplane for long journeys. These lightweight scooters are 95% assembled and are easy for the user to assemble them once they arrive at their destination.
Some models even come with a convenient carry bag or case that is designed for ease of use and transportation. They come with straps and handles that make it easier to carry the scooter over your shoulder or arm, without straining your neck or back. This is especially useful when you have to move your scooter between public transportation or between various vehicles for local travel.
Most travel scooters come with a seat assembly that is removable and can be stored beneath the chassis or directly in the front of the user's feet when not in use. This makes the scooter smaller and more compact for storage in restricted spaces. It also allows users to access any other features they might need like a front basket or caddy.
Another excellent feature of travel scooters is their shorter turning radius, which helps to navigate narrow spaces like doors in homes and apartments. Some models even have a front wheel suspension which provides additional stability when traveling through rough or uneven terrain.
Maintaining your scooter's cleanliness and safe while in transit is important for your health and safety. Keep it covered by a tarp or a cover at all times. Avoid exposure to extreme conditions, as this will decrease the battery's lifespan and affect the frame and components.
If you are considering purchasing a mobility scooter for travel, make sure you contact your airline to see what their regulations and rules are regarding the use of mobility devices aboard. Many airlines will allow them with a special approval, or in checked luggage, however you might have to show the certification of the manufacturer and other evidence that shows that the batteries are in compliance with the specifications of the manufacturer. Certain airlines also have restrictions regarding the size and type of batteries you can carry on board. It is recommended to verify their guidelines and rules before you depart.
