Travel Scooter
Travel scooters have been designed to be extremely portable. Some travel scooters fold while others can be disassembled into smaller pieces.
Our lightweight mobility scooters can climb an 8% incline and traverse cobblestone streets. The front tires are wider to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models have an attached hitch at the rear for carrying boxes or baskets.
Lightweight
Travel scooters are lightweight and easy to move. This is why they're ideal for anyone who has to travel, whether via plane or by car. They are easy to fit into the trunk of your vehicle or be checked as baggage on a flight.
Our ultra-lightweight Scooters make use of heat-treated 7005 aircraft-grade aluminum TIG-welded for frames and other parts. This type of welding results in stronger, more durable welds that are more attractive in comparison to the standard MIG welds found in most mobility scooters today. The frame of our lightest mobility scooter weighs half as much as the competitors. This means you'll be able to transport your scooter with greater mobility over greater distances and tougher terrain.
In addition, our scooters are designed with the user's weight placed over the drive wheel. This eliminates the tendency for front-wheel drive scooters to spin over uneven or inclines surfaces. The result is a more smooth ride, and a significant reduction in the cost of repairs resulting from front-wheel damage.
Solid rubber tires are an additional benefit of our ultralightweight mobility scooters. These tires are much more durable than the pneumatic (air) tires found on most scooters and are much easier to maneuver over rough or unpaved roads. The solid rubber is much quieter than pneumatic tires, and it doesn't catch or snag on obstacles.
When choosing the ideal mobility scooter for your needs, it's crucial to consider the weight of the scooter once it is fully assembled including battery. Use our filters at the top of page to filter products according to specifications, like "heaviest pieces" which refers to the weight of the chair and battery pack.
Our scooters use the very modern lithium-ion batteries that are extremely compact and light. They also have a high-impact case with a UL 94-5VB flame rating to ensure your safety. They are constructed of 100% Panasonic cells and are constructed to last for a long time. The batteries are able to be quickly removed to transport them or facilitate storage when needed.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters fold up easily and can be tucked away in the trunk of your van, car or SUV. They can also be broken into smaller pieces, making moving them much easier. This makes them suitable for air travel, where IATA luggage restrictions on the dimensions of suitcases are in place. You can also buy a scooter case that is specifically designed to shield your mobility scooter's folding mechanism from scratches and moisture during transport.
When not in use When not in use, you can put your scooter away in your garage or basement. If none of these options are available to you then a closet or spare bedroom will do just fine. Choose a dry, sheltered location, away from direct sunlight. This will prevent the UV rays of the sun from damaging plastic and rubber components, and possibly creating corrosion.
Depending on the model you select, the scooter may come with either a basket or box to help you with your shopping requirements. You can also put the luggage hitch to the frame and tow it behind you while riding.
The light and compact nature of these scooters mean they can be taken anywhere you go even in a crowded city like San Francisco. They can be used to take an easy stroll in the park, spend time shopping, or discover an area you've always wanted to go to.
It's a great idea to look at the weights of different models when looking for the best scooter. This will help you determine which one is suitable for you. When you are choosing a scooter, you should also think about the battery's capacity and lifespan.
Find scooters that can be folded or easily disassembled into smaller pieces. Some scooters fold with the push of a button, while others require that you remove the seat and then manually fold it.
Before long-term storage of your scooter it is an excellent idea to spray an anti-rust or corrosion inhibitor on it. This is especially important in areas prone to humidity. It is also important to avoid storing your scooter in extreme temperatures, because high temperatures can damage its battery and low temps can cause it to melt and freeze.
Simple to Operate
A travel scooter has all the advantages of a mobility scooter, but in a smaller package. The controls are simple to use, and you can adjust the tiller to place it in the most comfortable position for you. Certain models come with long-lasting batteries, and a battery monitor.
We suggest storing your scooter in a climate-controlled location, as extreme temperatures can alter the performance and longevity of lithium batteries. Keep your scooter close to a source of power can also help maintain optimal charging conditions.
It is important to keep your mobility scooter clean because dust can increase friction between moving parts and potentially end up damaging internal electrical components. If you don't wish to store your scooter in the garage or shed, you can get a waterproof storage cover to shield it from sunlight and rain. Some of these covers even incorporate security enhancements like locks to deter theft.
Before you leave the house, give your scooter a thorough check when you're ready to ride it again. Check for signs of excessive wear and tear or damage like a slack handlebar, damaged lights, or even missing controls or tires. This will help ensure that your mobility scooter is ready to go and will continue to provide you with reliable service for many years to come.
We have a range of accessories that allow you to carry more luggage on your travel scooter. Our Smart Luggage Kit comes with the ability to carry a carrier system that allows you to attach two smaller suitcases and an oversized cabin case to the back of your travel scooter. We also recommend using two-wheel suitcases since they are more compact, saving you precious interior storage space. In addition, two-wheel suitcases meet IATA air-travel guidelines on the maximum dimensions of suitcases. This means you can fly with your scooter loaded with all the gear you need without having to pay extra baggage fees. This is a major advantage that makes our travel scooters a great alternative for frequent and vacation travelers alike.
Easy to store
electric mobility can be dismantled into smaller, compact pieces for easy transport in your car. They are able to be easily tucked away in the trunk of a vehicle, at your side on a bus or train, or checked into an airplane for long trips. These lightweight scooters are fully assembled, making it easy for the user to assemble them once they arrive at their destination.
Some models come with a handy carrying bag or case that allows for ease of transport and use. These bags have straps and handles that allow you to carry the scooter over your shoulder or arm, without straining your back or neck. This is particularly helpful if you need to transfer your scooter between public transportation or between vehicles for local transport.
Most travel scooters come with a seat assembly that is removable and can be stored beneath the chassis or in the front of the user's feet when not in use. This allows the scooter to be stored in small spaces and is more compact. It also gives riders access to additional features, such as an in-front caddy or basket.
Travel scooters are also renowned for their smaller turning radius. This allows them to maneuver through tight spaces, like the doors of apartments and homes. Some models even have front wheel suspensions that provides extra stability when traveling through uneven or rough terrain.
It is crucial to your safety and health that you keep your scooter safe, dry, and clean during your travels. Cover it with a cover or tarp at all times. Avoid exposing it to extreme conditions that could affect the battery's life and harm the frame and components.
When purchasing a mobility scooter for travel, make sure you check with your airline to see what their regulations and rules apply to bringing mobility devices onboard. Most airlines allow them with a specific approval, or in checked luggage, however you might have to show the manufacturer's certificate and documentation that proves that the batteries comply with their specifications. Some airlines have restrictions on the type and size of battery you are allowed to bring It is recommended to research their guidelines and rules before you depart.
