Travel Scooter
Travel scooters have been developed to be extremely lightweight. Some travel scooters fold while others are disassembled into smaller pieces.
Our mobility scooters that are lightweight are able to navigate cobblestone roads and climb an 8.8% slope. The front tires are larger to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models have an attached hitch in the rear to carry baskets or boxes.
Lightweight
Travel scooters are lightweight and easy to move. They are ideal for those who have to travel by plane or car. They can easily be tucked away in the trunk of a vehicle or checked as baggage on planes.
Our ultra-lightweight scooters utilize TIG-welded, heated-treated, aircraft-grade 7005 aluminum for the frames and other components. eco-friendly scooters of welding produces welds that are stronger, cleaner and more pleasing to the eye than the typical MIG welds found in virtually every other mobility scooter made today. The frame of our lightest mobility scooter weighs just half as much as that of the competition. This means you can transport your scooter with greater mobility over greater distances and more difficult terrain.
In addition our scooters are designed with the rider's weight positioned over the drive wheel. This eliminates the tendency for front-wheel-driven scooters to spin on uneven or sloped surfaces. The result is a smoother ride, and a significant reduction in costly repairs caused by front-wheel damage.
Solid rubber tires are an additional advantage of our ultralightweight mobility scooters. These tires are far more durable than pneumatic (air) tires that are found on the majority of scooters and are easier to maneuver over rough roads or unpaved ones. The solid rubber is also a lot more quiet than pneumatic tires and does not snag or get caught on obstacles.
When you select the right mobility scooter for your needs, it is crucial to consider the total weight of the scooter once it is assembled, including battery. Use our filters at the top of the page to sort products by specifications, such as "heaviest pieces" which refers to the weight of chair and battery pack.
Our scooters are powered by the modern 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 designed to last and are made of 100% Panasonic cells. The batteries are able to be quickly removed for transportation or to simplify storage, should it be required.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters can be folded up to fit in the trunk of your car or SUV. They can also be broken into smaller pieces, making transportation easier. They are perfect for travel on planes where IATA luggage regulations for suitcase dimensions apply. You can also purchase a scooter case which will shield your folding mobility wheelchair from scratches and moisture during transit.
When you're not using it When not in use, you can store your scooter in your garage, basement or attic. If these spaces aren't available to you an attic or closet bedroom could be a good alternative. Pick a dry, shaded spot, away from direct sunlight. This will stop the sun's UV rays damaging rubber and plastic components, and possibly causing rust.
Depending on which model you pick, your scooter may include an accessory basket or box to make shopping easier. You can also put the luggage hitch on the frame and tow it behind while riding.
The small and light weight of these scooters means you can carry them everywhere you go even in a bustling city like San Francisco. You can take them for a walk in the park or shop. They are also great to explore a new area that you've always wanted to see.
When shopping for a scooter that can be used on the go it's an excellent idea to check the weight of each model. This will help you determine which one is the best fit for you. When choosing a scooter, you should also think about the battery's capacity and life span.
Look for scooters that fold or easily disassembled into smaller pieces. Some can fold electronically with the push of a button, while others require you to take off the seat and manually collapse the unit.
It's also an excellent idea to apply an anti-rust spray or corrosion inhibitor on your scooter prior to storage for long periods, especially in areas that are prone to humidity and other environmental factors that may influence the condition of your scooter. Avoid storing your scooter in extreme temperatures. Temperatures that are too high can harm the battery, and low temperatures could cause it to break down.
Simple to Operate
With a travel scooter, you get all the comforts of an ordinary mobility scooter in a compact package. The controls are simple to operate and you can adjust your tiller to a position that is most comfortable for you. Some of our models also come with long-lasting batteries, and an electronic battery monitor.
We suggest that you store your scooter in a place that has an environment that is controlled, as extreme temperatures can affect the performance and longevity of lithium batteries. Keep your scooter close to an electrical source to ensure that it is charged properly.
Make sure your mobility scooter is clean. Dust can cause friction between moving parts, and this could cause damage to 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 an waterproof storage cover to keep your scooter safe from rain and sunlight. Some of these covers have security features like locks to deter theft.
Before you leave home Give your scooter a thorough inspection before you're ready to take it again. Check for signs of wear or deterioration such as a damaged light, a bent handlebar or tires or controls that are not in good condition. This will ensure that your mobility device is in good condition and will serve you well for many years.
We offer a variety of accessories that will enable you to carry more luggage on your travel scooter. Our Smart Luggage Kit comes with a carrier system which allows you to attach two smaller suitcases and an oversized cabin case to the back of your travel scooter. We also recommend two-wheel suitcases because they are small and save you valuable storage space. Two-wheel suitcases also meet IATA air travel regulations for maximum dimensions for suitcases. You can therefore fly with your scooter loaded with all the gear you need without having to pay additional baggage charges. Our travel scooters are a fantastic choice for both vacationers and frequent travelers.
Easy to store
Travel scooters can be broken down into small, portable pieces for easy transportation in your car. 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 trips. These lightweight scooters come already assembled, making them easy to assemble on arrival at their destination.
Some models come with a case or bag for ease of transport and use. The bags come with straps and handles that make it easy to carry the scooter on your arm or shoulder without straining your back or neck. This is particularly useful when you have to move your scooter from one mode of transportation to another, or if you are planning to travel around the city.
The majority of travel scooters come with an adjustable seat that can be put under the chassis or in front of the feet of the user when the scooter is not being used. This allows the scooter to be stored in smaller spaces and is more compact. It also gives riders access to any additional features, like an in-front caddy or basket.
Travel scooters are also known for their smaller turning radius. This allows them to maneuver through tight spaces, such as the entrances of homes and apartments. Some even feature front wheel suspensions that provides extra stability when driving over uneven or rough terrain.
It is crucial for your safety and health that you keep your travel scooter safe, dry, and clean during your travels. Make sure it is covered by a tarp or a cover at all times. Avoid the exposure to extreme temperatures, as this will reduce the battery life and harm the frame and other components.
Also, before purchasing your travel scooter, make sure to check with your airline regarding their specific rules and regulations for bringing mobility scooters onboard. Many airlines will allow them with a special approval, or in checked luggage, however you might require a certification of the manufacturer and other evidence that shows that the batteries are in compliance with their specifications. Some airlines have restrictions regarding the size and type of battery you are allowed to bring on board. It is recommended to check their guidelines and rules before you depart.
