Travel Scooter
Travel scooters have been developed to be extremely lightweight. Some fold, while others disassemble into several pieces that are easy to handle.
Our mobility scooters that are lightweight can climb an incline of 8% and travel over cobblestone roads. They also come with wider front tires to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models also include a rear-mounted hitch for carrying baskets or boxes.
Lightweight
Travel scooters are light and easy to move. This is why they are ideal for anyone who needs to travel, whether by plane or by car. They can be easily stowed in the trunk of a vehicle or checked as baggage on a plane.
Our ultra-lightweight Scooters utilize heat-treated 7005 aircraft-grade aluminum TIG-welded for the frames and other components. This type of welding produces welds that are more durable, cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing than the common MIG welds found in virtually every other mobility scooter made today. As a result, the frame of our lightest scooter weighs less than half the weight of its competitors. This lets you carry your scooter over longer distances or over more difficult terrain.
Our scooters are also constructed so that the rider's body weight is positioned over the drivewheel. This prevents the tendency of front-wheel drive scooters to spin on uneven surfaces or inclines. This results in a smoother ride, and a significant reduction in the cost of repairs caused by front-wheel damage.
Solid rubber tires are another benefit of our ultralight mobility scooters. They 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. Rubber tires that are solid are quieter than pneumatics and do not catch on obstacles.
