Travel Scooter
Travel scooters are designed to be incredibly mobile. Some fold, while others disassemble into multiple easy-to-handle pieces.
Our lightweight mobility scooters can climb an incline of 8% and traverse cobblestone streets. The front tires are wider to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models have a rear-mounted hitch for carrying baskets or boxes.
Lightweight
The light-weight structure of travel scooters makes them simple to lift and move. They are perfect for those who need to travel by plane or vehicle. They can be easily stowed in the trunk of a car or checked as baggage on a plane.
Our ultra-lightweight scooters make use of TIG-welded, heat-treated, aircraft-grade 7005 aluminum for the frames and other parts. electric mobility scooters of welding produces stronger, cleaner welds that are more attractive as opposed to the typical MIG welds found in most mobility scooters today. The frame of our lightest mobility scooter weighs half as much as the competition. This means you'll be able to carry your scooter with greater comfort over larger distances and on more challenging terrain.
Additionally our scooters are designed with the rider's weight positioned over the drive wheel. This eliminates the tendency for front-wheel-drives scooters to spin on uneven or sloped surfaces. The result is a much more comfortable ride and a substantial reduction in the costly repairs associated with front-wheel damage.
Solid rubber tires are a further benefit of our ultralightweight mobility scooters. These tires are more durable than pneumatic tires (air) that are found on many scooters, and they are much easier to maneuver on rough or unpaved roads. The solid rubber is also much quieter than pneumatic tires and does not snag or get caught on obstacles.
When choosing the ideal mobility scooter for your needs, it's important to take into consideration the total weight of the scooter when it is fully assembled including battery. Use our filters at the top of page to filter products by specifications, for example "heaviest pieces" which refers to the weight of chair and battery pack.
Our scooters utilize the latest lithium-ion batteries which are extremely compact and lightweight. The scooters also feature an extremely high-impact, flame-rated case with an flame rating of UL944-5VB. These batteries are made of 100 percent Panasonic cells and are designed to last. The batteries can be quickly taken apart for transport or to make storage easier, if required.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters fold easily and can be tucked away in the trunk of your van, car or SUV. Some are even able to be broken into smaller pieces to make transporting them simpler. This makes them suitable for air travel, as IATA luggage restrictions on suitcase dimensions apply. You can also purchase a scooter bag which will shield your mobility scooter from scratches and moisture during transit.
You can put your scooter in the garage, basement or attic when it's not being used. If you do not have access to these areas an extra room or closet can be used. It's crucial to choose a dry and sheltered area away from direct sunlight, to stop the sun's rays from destroying rubber and plastic components, and causing rust.
Depending on which model you pick the scooter you choose may come with an accessory basket or box to help you shop. You can also attach the luggage hitch to the frame and pull it behind you as you ride.
These scooters are small and light, so they can be easily transported everywhere. Even in a bustling city such as San Francisco. You can take them for a walk in the park or shop. They are also ideal to explore a new area you've always wanted to visit.
When shopping for a portable scooter it is a good idea to compare the weight of every model. This will help you determine which one is best for you. When selecting a scooter you should also think about the battery's capacity as well as its lifespan.
If you are looking for a scooter that can be easily stored you should look for models that fold up or disassemble into smaller pieces. Some scooters fold at the push of a button, while others require you to remove the seat manually and fold it.
Before long-term storage of your scooter it is recommended to spray an anti-rust or corrosion inhibitor over it. This is particularly crucial in areas with high humidity. Avoid storing your scooter at extreme temperatures. Temperatures that are too high can harm the battery, while low temperatures could cause it to break down.
Easy to Operate
A travel scooter offers all the advantages of a mobility scooter, but in a more compact package. The controls are simple to use and you can adjust the tiller to place it in the most comfortable position for you. Some of our models come with long-lasting batteries, and an electronic battery monitor.
We suggest that you store your scooter in a location that has a controlled climate, since extreme temperatures can impact the performance and longevity of lithium batteries. Keep your scooter close to a source of power will also ensure optimal charging conditions.
It is essential to keep your mobility scooter clean, as dust can increase the friction between moving parts and damage internal electrical components. The idea of keeping your scooter in a shed or garage is ideal, however if you don't have enough space for this you could consider purchasing an waterproof storage cover to protect your scooter from sun and rain. Some of these covers have security features like locks that stop theft.
Before you leave home Make sure you give your scooter a thorough check when you're ready to ride it again. Check for signs of excessive wear or damage, 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 working condition and will continue to serve you well for many years to come.
We have a wide range of accessories that will enable you to carry more luggage your travel scooter. Our Smart Luggage Kit comes with a carrier system which allows you to connect two smaller suitcases as well as a cabin-sized suitcase to the back of your travel scooter. We also recommend using two-wheel suitcases since they are more compact, saving you valuable storage space in your interior. Furthermore, two-wheeled suitcases meet IATA air-travel guidelines on maximum suitcase dimensions. You can therefore fly with your scooter loaded to the brim without paying additional baggage charges. This is one of the major advantages that makes our travel scooters a great option for frequent travelers as well.
Easy to Store
Travel scooters can be cut into small, portable pieces that can be easily transported in your car. They can be easily stored in the trunk of your car, at your side on a bus or train, or checked in an airplane for long trips. These lightweight scooters come already assembled, making them easy to assemble on arrival at their destination.
Some models come with a handy carrying bag or case that allows for easy transport and use. They come with straps and handles that make it easy to carry the scooter on your shoulder or arm, without straining your neck or back. This is particularly helpful for those who need to move your scooter between public transportation options or between vehicles for local travel.
Most travel scooters have a removable seat that can be stored under the chassis or in front of the feet of the user when the scooter isn't being used. This makes the scooter smaller and more compact for storage in small spaces, and also allows riders to access any additional features they may require such as a front basket or caddy.
Travel scooters are also known for their narrower turning radius. This allows them to maneuver through tight spaces such as the doors of apartments and homes. Some even come with a front suspension which provides additional stability when traversing rough or uneven terrain.
Cleansing your travel scooter and safe on the road is important for your safety and health. Make sure it is covered with a tarp or cover at all times. Avoid the exposure to extreme temperatures which can reduce the battery life and impact the frame and its components.
Also, before purchasing your travel scooter, make sure to check with your airline regarding their specific rules and regulations for bringing mobility scooters aboard. Most airlines allow them with a specific approval, or when they are checked in luggage, but you may require a manufacturer's certificate and documentation which proves that the batteries meet their specifications. Certain airlines also have restrictions on the kind and size of battery that you can bring with you and it is a good idea to read their rules and guidelines before you depart.
