cheap electric mobility scooter have been developed to be extremely portable. Some travel scooters fold, while others can be disassembled into smaller pieces.
Our mobility scooters that are lightweight can navigate cobblestone roads and climb up an 8.8% slope. They also come with wider front tires to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models even come with a rear-mounted hitch that can be used to carry boxes or baskets.
Lightweight
The light-weight structure of travel scooters makes them simple to lift and transport. They are ideal for those who need to travel by car or plane. They can be easily stowed in the trunk of a car or checked as baggage on a plane.
Our ultra-lightweight scooters use TIG-welded, heat-treated, aircraft-grade 7005 aluminum for the frames and other components. This type of welding results in welds that are stronger, more durable and more pleasing to the eye than the common MIG welds found in virtually all other mobility scooters manufactured today. The frame of our lightest mobility scooter weighs just half as much as that of the rivals. This means that you can carry your scooter with greater mobility over greater distances and more difficult terrain.
Our scooters are also built so that the rider's body weight is placed over the drivewheel. This reduces the tendency of front-wheel-drives scooters to spin on uneven or sloped surfaces. The result is a more comfortable ride, and a significant decrease in costly repairs caused by front-wheel damage.
Solid rubber tires are an additional benefit of our ultralightweight mobility scooters. They are more durable than the pneumatic (air) tires that are found on most scooters, and are more comfortable to maneuver over rough roads or unpaved ones. The solid rubber is also much quieter than pneumatic tires and does not catch or snag on obstacles.
