Travel Scooter
Travel scooters are designed to be incredibly transportable. Some fold, while others are disassembled into smaller pieces.
Our lightweight mobility scooters can ascend an 8% incline and traverse cobblestone streets. They also come with wider front tires to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models have a hitch mounted at the rear for carrying boxes or baskets.
Lightweight
The lightweight structure of travel scooters makes them simple to carry and lift. This is why they are perfect for those who need to travel by plane or car. They can easily fit into the trunk of your vehicle or be loaded as check ed baggage on the flight.
Our ultra-lightweight Scooters utilize heat-treated 7005 aircraft-grade aluminum TIG-welded for the frames and other components. This type of welding creates stronger, cleaner welds and are more attractive as opposed to the typical MIG welds that are commonly found in mobility scooters today. The frame of our lightest mobility scooter weighs half as much as the rivals. This means you can transport your scooter with greater comfort over larger distances and on more challenging terrain.
Additionally, our scooters are designed with the rider's weight placed over the drive wheel. This eliminates the tendency of front-wheel-drive scooters to spin out on uneven or inclines. The result is a more smooth ride, and a significant reduction in the costly repairs resulting from front-wheel damage.
Solid rubber tires are another advantage of our ultralightweight mobility scooters. These tires are much more durable than pneumatic (air) tires that are found on most scooters and are much easier to maneuver over rough roads and unpaved roads. The solid rubber is also much quieter than pneumatic tires and doesn't snag or get caught on obstacles.
It is essential to take into account the weight of the entire mobility scooter including the battery when deciding on the best one for your requirements. Use our filters at the top of page to filter products by specifications, such as "heaviest pieces" which specifies combined weight of chair and battery pack.
Our scooters use the very latest lithium-ion batteries which are extremely compact and lightweight. They also feature a high-impact case with a UL 94-5VB flame rating to ensure your safety. These batteries are made of 100% Panasonic cells and are built to last. The batteries can be easily disassembled to transport them or facilitate storage should it be required.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters fold up to fit in the trunk of your car or SUV. Some of them even break down into smaller pieces to make it easier to transport. This makes them ideal for travel on planes, where IATA luggage restrictions on the dimensions of suitcases are in place. You can also purchase a scooter case that is specifically designed to shield your folding mobility scooter from moisture and scratches during transport.
When not in use, you can easily put your scooter away in your garage, basement or attic. If none of these options are accessible, a closet or spare bedroom should work just fine. It is important to select a dry and sheltered area away from direct sunlight, to stop the sun's rays from destroying plastic and rubber components and causing rust.
Depending on the model that you choose, the scooter could come with either the basket or box to aid you in your shopping requirements. You can also connect an accessory for luggage to the frame, and tow it behind when you ride.
These scooters are compact and light, meaning you can take them everywhere. Even in a crowded city like San Francisco. You can take them for a stroll through the park or to shop. They are also great for exploring a new place that you have always wanted to visit.
When looking for a scooter that can be used on the go it is a good idea to compare the weight of every model. This will help you determine which one is the best for you. Additionally, you need to take into account the battery's life span and capacity before deciding on the right scooter.
Look for scooters that fold or easily disassembled into smaller pieces. Some scooters fold at the press of a single button, while others require you to take off the seat manually and fold it.
It's also recommended to apply an anti-rust spray or corrosion inhibitor to your scooter before long-term storage, especially in areas susceptible to humidity and other environmental factors that could affect the condition of your scooter. You should also avoid storing your scooter in extreme temperatures, because high temperatures can harm the battery, while low temperatures could cause it to freeze and 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 operate, and you can adjust the tiller to put it in the most comfortable position for you. Some of our models also include batteries that last for a long time, and an electronic battery monitor.
We recommend that you store your travel scooter in a place that has a controlled climate, since extreme temperatures may affect the performance and lifespan of lithium batteries. Keep your scooter close to an electrical source for optimal charging.
It is essential to keep your mobility scooter clean since dust can increase the friction between moving parts and could end up damaging internal electrical components. Keeping your scooter in a shed or garage is ideal, but if you don't have the space then you should consider investing in a waterproof storage cover to protect your scooter from sunlight and rain. Some of these covers include security features such as locks that deter theft.
If you are ready to ride again, make sure to give your scooter a quick once-over before you leave the house. Look for signs of excessive wear and tear or deterioration, such as a loose handlebar, broken lights, or even missing controls or tires. This will ensure that your mobility device is in good order and will continue to serve you well for many years.
If you want to carry more luggage on your travel scooter, we offer several accessories to assist you in doing just that. Our Smart Luggage Kit includes a carrier system that allows you to attach a cabin-sized suitcase the front of your scooter, and two smaller suitcases to its back. We also recommend two-wheel suitcases, as they are compact and will save you storage space. Two-wheel luggage also meets IATA air travel regulations regarding the maximum dimensions of a suitcase. Therefore, you can fly with your full scooter load without having to pay extra baggage charges. This is an advantage that makes our travel scooters a great option for vacationers and frequent travelers alike.
Easy to Store
Travel scooters break into lightweight and portable pieces that are easy to transport in your vehicle. They can be easily stored in the trunk of your vehicle, or by your side when traveling by train or bus or even checked into an airplane for long flights. These lightweight scooters are also 90% pre-assembled and are easy to assemble on arrival at their destination.
Some models come with bags for carrying or a case that is designed for ease of use and transport. The bags are fitted with straps and handles, which make it easier for users to hold the scooter with their hands on their shoulders or arms without straining their neck or back. This is particularly helpful for those who need to move your scooter between public transportation or between different vehicles for local transport.
Almost all travel scooters come with a seat assembly that is removable and can be stored underneath the chassis or directly in the front of the feet of the user when not in use. This makes the scooter smaller and easier to fit into restricted spaces. It also allows riders to access any additional features they may require, like a front basket or caddy.
Another great feature of most travel scooters is their shorter turning radius, which can help them navigate tight spaces like doors in homes and apartments. Some even come with a front suspension that gives extra stability when traveling through rough or uneven terrain.
Maintaining your scooter's cleanliness and safe while in transit is important to ensure your health and safety. Make sure it is covered by a tarp or a cover at all times. Avoid exposure to extreme conditions that could affect the battery's life and harm the frame and components.
If you are considering purchasing an electric scooter for travel, be sure to check with your airline to find out what their rules and regulations apply to bringing mobility devices aboard. The majority of airlines allow them with special approval, or when they are checked in luggage, but you may need to present the manufacturer's certificate or other documentation that proves that the batteries meet the specifications of the manufacturer. Certain airlines also have restrictions on the size and type of batteries you can carry on board. It is best to read their guidelines and rules prior to when you depart.
