Travel Scooter
Travel scooters are designed to be incredibly transportable. Some fold down, while others break into several pieces that are easy to handle.
Our lightweight mobility scooters can ascend an 8% incline and travel over cobblestone roads. They also have wider front tires for better performance on rough terrain. Some models include a rear-mounted hitch to carry boxes or baskets.
Lightweight
The light-weight structure of travel scooters makes them simple to carry and lift. They are ideal for those who have to travel by plane or vehicle. They can easily be tucked away in the trunk of a car or checked as baggage on a plane.
Our ultra-lightweight Scooters use aluminum that has been treated with heat and then TIG-welded for frames and other parts. This type of welding produces stronger, cleaner welds that are more attractive as opposed to the typical MIG welding used in many mobility scooters today. As a result, the frame of our lightest scooter weighs just half the weight of its other models. This allows you to transport your scooter over longer distances or over more difficult terrains.
Our scooters are also designed so that the user's body weight is placed over the drivewheel. This reduces the tendency of front-wheel drive scooters to spin over uneven or sloped surfaces. The result is a more smooth ride, and a significant reduction in the expensive repairs associated with front-wheel damage.
Solid rubber tires are another benefit of our ultralightweight mobility scooters. These tires are more durable than pneumatic tires (air) used on the majority of scooters, and they are easier to maneuver over rough or unpaved roads. Solid rubber tires are quieter than pneumatics, and they don't stick to obstacles.
