Travel Scooter
Travel scooters have been designed to be extremely mobile. Some travel scooters fold while others can be disassembled into smaller pieces.
Our mobility scooters that are lightweight can navigate cobblestone roads and climb an 8.8% slope. They also have wider front tires to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models also include a rear-mounted hitch for bringing boxes or baskets.
Lightweight
Travel scooters are light and easy to carry. They are ideal for those who have to travel by plane or car. They can be easily stored in the trunk of a car or checked as baggage on planes.
Our ultra-lightweight Scooters utilize TIG-welded 7005 aircraft-grade aluminum that has been heat-treated for the frames and other parts. This type of welding creates stronger, more durable welds that are more appealing aesthetically compared to the common MIG welding used in many mobility scooters today. The frame of our lightest mobility scooter weighs just half as much as that of the rivals. This allows you to carry your scooter over longer distances and on more difficult terrain.
Additionally, our scooters are designed with the rider's weight placed over the drive wheel. This prevents front-wheel-driven scooters to spin on uneven or sloped surfaces. This results in a smoother ride, and a significant reduction in costly repairs caused by damage to the front wheel.
Solid rubber tires are an additional benefit of our ultralight mobility scooters. They are more durable than pneumatic tires (air) found on most scooters, and are much easier to maneuver on rough or unpaved roads. Solid rubber tires are quieter than pneumatics and don't stick to obstacles.
It is crucial to consider the total weight of a mobility scooter, including the battery, when selecting the right one for your requirements. Use our filters at top of the 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, which are extremely compact and lightweight. The scooters also have an extremely high-impact, flame-rated case with an UL944-5VB flame rating. These batteries are made of 100% Panasonic cells and are constructed to last for a long time. The batteries can be easily removed to transport them or simplify storage, when needed.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters fold up to fit in the trunk of your SUV or car. Some even disassemble into several smaller pieces for easier transport. They are perfect for air travel where IATA luggage regulations on dimensions of suitcases are in effect. You can also get an exclusive scooter case to shield your folding mobility scooter from scratches and moisture while in transit.
When you're not using it When not in use, you can keep your scooter in your garage or basement. If these spaces aren't available then a closet or spare bedroom should work just fine. It is important to select an area that is dry and shaded, out of direct sunlight to avoid the sun's rays from destroying rubber and plastic components, and possibly creating rust.
Depending on the model you pick, your scooter may include a box or basket to make shopping easier. You can also connect a luggage hitch to the frame, and tow it behind you when riding.
These scooters are compact and light, meaning you can easily take them anywhere. Even in a crowded city such as San Francisco. They can be used for an enjoyable stroll through the park, go for an afternoon shopping or exploring a new destination that you've always wanted to visit.
It's a good idea to look at the weights of different models when you are shopping for scooters. This will help you decide which one is the best for you. Additionally, you need to consider the battery's lifespan and capacity when choosing a scooter.
Find scooters that fold or disassembled easily into smaller parts. Some scooters fold at the push of a single button, whereas others require that you remove the seat and then manually fold it.
In the event of long-term storage for your scooter, it's a good idea for you to spray an anti-rust or corrosion inhibitor on it. This is especially important in areas prone to humidity. Avoid storing your scooter in extreme temperatures. Extreme temperatures can cause damage to the battery, while low temperatures can cause it break down.
Simple to Operate
With a travel scooter, you can enjoy all the features of a regular mobility scooter in a compact. The controls are simple to operate, and you can adjust the tiller so that you can place it in the most comfortable position for you. Certain models include long-lasting batteries and an electronic battery monitor.
We suggest storing your travel scooter in a climate-controlled area because extreme temperatures can alter the performance and longevity of lithium batteries. Maintaining your scooter in close proximity to a source of power will also ensure optimal charging conditions.
It is essential to keep your mobility scooter clean, since dust can increase the friction between moving parts and could damage internal electrical components. If you don't wish to store your scooter in the garage or shed, you can buy a waterproof storage cover that protects it from sunlight and rain. Some of these covers have security features such as locks that deter theft.
If you're ready to ride again, make sure you give your scooter a quick check before heading out the door. Check for signs of excessive wear or deterioration such as a broken light, a sagging handlebar, or missing controls or tires. This will ensure that your mobility device is in good working condition and will serve you well for many years.
We have a range of accessories that allow you to carry more luggage on your travel scooter. Our Smart Luggage Kit includes a carrier system that lets you attach a cabin-sized suitcase to the front of your scooter and two smaller suitcases to its back. We also recommend using two-wheeled suitcases because they are smaller, saving you valuable interior storage space. Furthermore, two-wheeled suitcases comply with IATA air-travel regulations on the maximum dimensions of a suitcase. This means that you can travel with your full scooter, without paying extra baggage charges. This is one of the major advantages that makes our travel scooters an excellent option for frequent travelers alike.
Easy to store
Travel scooters can be dismantled into smaller, portable pieces for easy transport in your car. They can be easily stored in the trunk of your car, by your side when traveling by train or bus, or checked in an airplane for long journeys. These scooters that are lightweight are already assembled which makes them simple to assemble on arrival at their destination.
Some models even come with an easy-to-carry bag or case that is designed 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 neck or back. This is especially helpful when you have to move your scooter between public transportation options or between different vehicles for local transport.
Almost all travel scooters have an adjustable seat that can be stored underneath the chassis or directly in the front of the feet of the user when not in use. This allows the scooter to be stored in small areas and is smaller. It also gives riders access to additional features, like a front caddy or basket.
Travel scooters are also known for their narrower turning radius. This allows them to maneuver through tight spaces, such as the doors of homes and apartments. Some travel scooters feature an front-wheel suspension that provides extra stability on uneven terrain.
It is essential to your safety and health that you keep your travel scooter clean, dry and secure when you are on the move. Make sure to keep it covered or tarp-covered at all times, and avoid exposing it to extreme weather conditions since this can decrease its battery's life and impact the condition of the frame and components.
When you purchase your travel scooter, be sure to inquire with your airline about their specific guidelines and rules for bringing mobility scooters aboard. smart mobility devices will allow them to be checked in baggage or with special approval. However, you might be required to provide the manufacturer's certification as well as documents that prove that the batteries conform to their specifications. Some carriers also have restrictions on the type and size of battery that you can bring with you, so it is recommended to research their rules and guidelines before you fly.
