Travel Scooter
Travel scooters have been developed to be extremely portable. Some fold down, while others break into multiple pieces that are easy to handle.
Our lightweight mobility scooters are able to navigate cobblestone roads as well as climb an 8.8% slope. The front tires are larger for better performance in rough terrain. Some models come with a hitch that is mounted in the rear to carry boxes or baskets.
Lightweight
Travel scooters are lightweight and easy to carry. They are perfect for those who have to travel by plane or vehicle. They can be easily stored 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 frames and other components. This type of welding produces stronger, cleaner welds that are more attractive in comparison to the standard MIG welding used in many mobility scooters today. In the end, the frame of our lightweight scooter weighs less than half as much as the competition. This means you'll be able to carry your scooter with greater mobility over greater distances and tougher terrain.
Additionally, our scooters are designed with the user's weight placed over the drive wheel. This prevents the tendency of front-wheel-drive scooters to spin around on uneven surfaces or inclines. This results in a smoother ride, and a significant reduction in costly repairs due to front-wheel damage.
Solid rubber tires are an additional benefit of our ultralightweight mobility scooters. These tires are far more durable than the pneumatic (air) tires on many scooters and are easier to maneuver over rough or unpaved roads. Rubber tires that are solid are quieter than pneumatics and don't stick to obstacles.
It is essential to consider the total weight of a mobility scooter including the battery when selecting the right one for your requirements. Use small electric mobility scooter at top of page to filter products according to specifications, like "heaviest pieces" which defines the combined weight of chair and battery pack.
Our scooters are equipped with the most advanced lithium-ion battery technology that is extremely compact and light. They also come with a high-impact case that has a UL 94-5VB flame rating to ensure your safety. They are built to last and made entirely of Panasonic cells. The batteries are able to be easily disassembled for storage or transport.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters fold up to fit into the trunk of your SUV or car. Some of them even break down into smaller pieces to make it easier to transport. They are perfect for air travel where IATA luggage regulations for dimensions of suitcases are in effect. You can also purchase a scooter case which will shield your mobility scooter from scratches and moisture while in transit.
You can put your scooter in the garage, basement or attic when it's not being used. If none of these options are available to you, a closet or spare bedroom should work just fine. Choose a dry, sheltered spot, away from direct sunlight. This will prevent the sun's UV rays damaging plastic and rubber components, and possibly causing rust.
Based on the model you choose, the scooter could come with a basket or box to assist you with your shopping needs. You can also attach a luggage hitch to the frame and tow it behind when you ride.
The light and compact nature of these scooters ensures that you can take them anywhere you go, even in a busy city like San Francisco. You can take them for a stroll in the park or to shop. They are also great for exploring a new place that you've always wanted to see.
It's a great idea to compare the weights of different models when shopping for the best scooter. This will help you determine which scooter is best for you. When choosing a scooter, you should also consider the battery's capacity and lifespan.
If you are looking for a scooter that is easy to store you should look for models that fold up or disassemble into a number of smaller parts. Some fold electronically with the press of a button, whereas others require you to disengage the seat and manually fold the unit.
Before long-term storage of your scooter, it's recommended to spray an anti-rust or corrosion inhibitor over it. This is particularly crucial in areas with high humidity. It is also recommended to not store your scooter in extreme temperatures, as high temps can damage the battery, while low temperatures can cause it to freeze and break down.
Easy to operate
A travel scooter offers all the advantages of a mobility scooter, however, it's a smaller package. The controls are easy to operate and you can adjust the tiller to place it in the most comfortable position for you. Some of our models also come with long-lasting batteries, and an electronic battery monitor.
We suggest storing your travel scooter in a climate-controlled location because extreme temperatures can alter the performance and longevity of lithium batteries. Maintaining your scooter close to a source of power will also help maintain optimal charging conditions.
Clean your mobility scooter. Dust can cause friction between moving parts, which can damage internal electrical components. The idea of keeping your scooter in a garage or shed is ideal, but if you don't have the space you could consider purchasing a waterproof storage cover to protect your scooter from rain and sunlight. Some of these covers incorporate security enhancements like locks to stop theft.
Before you leave home Make sure you give your scooter a once-over when you're ready to ride it again. Check for signs of excessive wear or deterioration, such as a damaged light, a loose 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 wide range of accessories that enable you to carry more luggage your travel scooter. Our Smart Luggage Kit comes with an accessory 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 because they are more compact which means you can save valuable storage space in your interior. Furthermore, two-wheeled suitcases comply with IATA air-travel regulations regarding the maximum dimensions of a suitcase. Therefore, you can fly with your scooter loaded to the brim without paying additional baggage fees. This is a major advantage that makes our travel scooters a great alternative for frequent and vacation travelers as well.
Easy to store
Travel scooters break down into light and portable pieces that are easy to transport in your vehicle. They are able to be easily tucked away in the trunk of a vehicle, at your side on trains or buses or even in an airplane for long trips. These lightweight scooters are with a 95% assembly making it simple for the user to assemble them once they reach their destination.
Some models come with a case or bag for ease of transportation and use. The bags are fitted with handles and straps which make it easier for users to hold the scooter with one hand on their shoulders or arms without straining their back or neck. This is especially useful for those who need to move your scooter between public transportation modes or between vehicles for local transportation.
Most travel scooters have an adjustable seat that can be stored underneath the chassis or in the front of the feet of the user when not in use. This allows the scooter to be stored in smaller spaces and is more compact. It also allows riders access to additional features, including a front caddy or basket.
Another excellent feature of travel scooters is their shorter turning radius, which can help to navigate narrow areas like the doors of homes and apartments. Some even come with a front wheel suspension which provides additional stability when traveling through rough or uneven terrain.
Cleansing your travel scooter and safe on the road is essential for your health and safety. Make sure it is covered with a cover or tarp at all times. Avoid exposure to extreme conditions which can decrease the battery's lifespan and harm the frame and other components.
