Travel Scooter
Travel scooters are designed to be extremely lightweight. Some fold, while others are broken down into smaller pieces.
Our lightweight mobility scooters are able to navigate cobblestone roads and climb up an 8.8% slope. The front tires are wider to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models also include a rear-mounted hitch for carrying baskets or boxes.
Lightweight
The light-weight structure of travel scooters makes them easy to carry and lift. This is why they're ideal for anyone who needs to travel, whether by plane or car. They can easily fit in the trunk of your vehicle or be checked as baggage on an airplane.
Our ultra-lightweight scooters utilize TIG-welded, heat-treated, aircraft-grade 7005 aluminum for the frames and other components. This type of welding produces welds that are more durable, cleaner and more attractive than the standard MIG welds found in virtually all other mobility scooters made today. As a result, the frame of our lightest scooter weighs less than half of the weight of the competition. This means you'll be able to carry your scooter with more ease over longer distances and more difficult terrain.
Our scooters are also built so that the user's body weight is placed over the drivewheel. This prevents the tendency of front-wheel drive scooters to spin around on uneven surfaces 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 an additional advantage of our ultralightweight mobility scooters. These tires are much more durable than pneumatic (air) tires that are found on the majority of scooters, and are more comfortable to maneuver over rough roads or unpaved ones. Solid rubber tires are quieter than pneumatics, and they don't stick to obstacles.
It is crucial to consider the weight of the entire mobility scooter, including the battery, when choosing the best one for your needs. You can do this by using our filters at the top of the page. You can filter by product specifications such as "heaviest piece" which specifies the combined weight of the battery pack and the chair.
Our scooters utilize the latest lithium-ion batteries which are extremely compact and light. The scooters also have a high-impact, flame-rated case with a UL944-5VB flame rating. They are constructed of 100% Panasonic cells and are constructed to last. The batteries can be easily disassembled for storage or transport.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters can 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 suitable for air travel, where IATA luggage restrictions on suitcase dimensions apply. You can purchase a scooter case which will shield your mobility scooter from moisture and scratches while in transit.
When not in use When not in use, you can store your scooter in your garage or basement. If these areas aren't available an attic or closet bedroom will do just fine. Pick a dry, shaded spot, away from direct sunlight. This will prevent the sun's UV rays damaging rubber and plastic components, and possibly causing corrosion.
Depending on which model you choose, your scooter may include the option of a basket or box to make shopping easier. You can also attach the luggage hitch to the frame and pull it behind you while riding.
They are small and light, meaning they can be easily transported anywhere. Even in a crowded city like San Francisco. They can be used for an easy stroll in the park, or spend an afternoon shopping or exploring the new place you've always wanted to visit.
It's a good idea examine the weights of various models when you are shopping for a scooter. This will help you decide which one is the best fit for you. When you are choosing a scooter, you must also take into consideration the battery's capacity and life span.
Look for scooters that fold or easily disassembled into smaller parts. Some scooters fold with the push of a single button, while other require that you remove the seat manually and fold it.
It's also recommended to apply an anti-rust spray or corrosion inhibitor to your scooter prior to storage for long periods particularly in areas that are susceptible to humidity and other environmental factors that can influence the condition of your scooter. It is also important to avoid storing your scooter in extreme temperatures because high temperatures can harm the battery and low temperatures could cause it to break down and freeze.
Simple to operate
With a travel scooter, you get all the comforts of an ordinary mobility scooter in a compact. The controls are simple to operate and you can adjust the tiller so that you can place it in the most comfortable position for you. Some of our models include long-lasting batteries and a battery monitor.
We recommend that you store your scooter in a climate-controlled location because extreme temperatures can alter the performance and longevity of lithium batteries. Keep your scooter near an electrical source to ensure that it is charged properly.
Make sure your mobility scooter is clean. Dust can cause friction between moving parts, which could cause damage to internal electrical components. If you don't wish to store your scooter in the garage or shed, you can buy an outdoor storage cover that will protect it from sunlight and rain. Some of these covers include security features such as locks to deter theft.
Before you leave your home, give your scooter a thorough inspection before you set out to ride it again. Check for signs of excessive wear or damage, such as a damaged light, a loose handlebar, or tires or controls that are not in good condition. This can help ensure that your mobility scooter is in good condition to go and will continue to provide you with reliable service for years to come.
We have a wide range of accessories that allow you to carry more luggage with your travel scooter. Our Smart Luggage Kit includes a carrier system that allows you to attach a cabin-sized suitcase to the front of your scooter and two smaller suitcases to its back. We also recommend using two-wheel suitcases as they are more compact and can save you valuable interior storage space. Additionally, two-wheel suitcases meet IATA air-travel regulations regarding maximum suitcase dimensions. Therefore, you can travel with your full scooter load without having to pay additional baggage charges. This is an advantage that makes our travel scooters an excellent option for frequent travelers as well.
Easy to Store
Travel scooters break down into light and portable pieces that are easy to transport in your vehicle. They can easily fit into the trunk of a vehicle, at your side while on a bus or train or even in an airplane for long journeys. These lightweight scooters are with a 95% assembly and are easy for the user to put them together them once they arrive at their destination.
Some models come with a convenient carrying bag or case for ease of transport and use.

Travel scooters are also renowned for their smaller turning radius. This allows them to navigate through tight spaces, such as the entrances of apartments and homes. Some models of travel scooters come with a front-wheel suspension to provide extra stability on uneven terrain.
It is crucial for your safety and health that you keep your scooter clean, dry and secure when you are on the move. Make sure it is covered with a tarp or cover at all times. Avoid the exposure to extreme temperatures that could affect the battery's life and harm the frame and components.
Lastly, when purchasing your travel scooter, be sure to check with your airline regarding their specific rules and regulations for bringing mobility scooters aboard. Most airlines will allow them to be check ed in baggage, or with a special approval. However, you could be required to provide the manufacturer's certification and documents that prove that the batteries conform to their specifications. Certain airlines also have restrictions regarding the size and the type of battery you can bring on board. It is best to check their guidelines and rules prior to you fly.
