30 LBS PLUS BATTERY

The TravelScoot's frame and complete seat weigh less than 30 pounds combined. Add your choice of lithium-ion battery and the total weight of the scooter ranges from 33-35 lbs.! It's not enough to have a lightweight mobility scooter that's only lightweight when disassembled and broken up into pieces. You need a mobility scooter that is extremely lightweight when fully assembled. There will be many times during the day you need to lift your mobility device while on the go such as lifting it over curbs, walking it up stairs, etc. We've spoken with too many people to know that if your mobility scooter is not convenient, you'll leave it at home, rendering it useless. Not so with the TravelScoot!

Folded dimensions (inches): Length 29 or 34 (w/front wheel), Width 21.5, Height 10.25

22.5 LB FRAME AND MATERIALS

Our scooter frames are designed to be the lightest, strongest, and most portable conceivable. All TravelScoot models are made from TIG-welded, heat-treated, aircraft-grade 7005 aluminum. TIG-welding is much stronger, cleaner, and more aesthetically pleasing than the more common MIG welds found on virtually every other mobility scooter made today. Although TIG welding is more costly due to the high level of skill required, you can be confident that when you buy the lightest folding mobility scooter, you will own the strongest mobility scooter on the market due to its incredible 10:1 strength-to-weight ratio!

FRAME DESIGN AND STRENGTH

The secret to our scooters' strength, in addition to using the best materials and welds, is our one-of-a-kind triangular design. It's quite simple; a triangle is much stronger at sustaining heavy loads than a two-point design since weight is more evenly distributed to the entire area of the scooter frame versus having the entire load supported by nothing but the rear welds on a T-framed scooter. We have many customers weighing over 450 lbs that depend on the TravelScoot daily.This is why our warranty weight limit is the highest you can find among mobility scooters.

5 LB SEAT ASSEMBLY

At just 5 lbs., the TravelScoot seat assembly is easy to handle and can be disassembled quickly for those in need of extra cargo space. Although extremely lightweight, the patented yoke is the key to the TravelScoot's stability and strength as the rider's weight is distributed over two bars instead of one.

- Backrest (1.51 lbs.)
- Yoke (1.27 lbs.)
- Seat (3.22 lbs.)

SEAT OPTIONS

SINGLE-HINGE FOLDING MECHANISM

Arguably the best feature on the TravelScoot is the locking mechanism. With the new folding design, the TravelScoot will collapse with just a single click of the locking pin. To fold, simply remove the seat by disengaging the quick-release clamp then press the locking pin. All this can be done in mere seconds! Combined with its ultra-light weight and hassle-free folding mechanism, you can load the TravelScoot into your vehicle and be on your way in no time flat.

PERFORMANCE AND FEATURES

REAR-WHEEL DRIVE

Our direct-drive hub motor performs substantially better than its competition in two ways. First, it utilizes a rear-wheel-drive system. Due to the rider's weight being positioned over the drive wheel, the tire has a much better purchase on whatever terrain the rider is traveling over. Front-wheel drive will often spin-out when traveling over uneven terrain or inclines. Second, with the hub motor situated inside the left-rear tire, it is protected from costly damage that occurs primarily to the front wheel. Damage to the front wheel may cost you a new motor, controller, wheel, and fork, in addition to the labor. Not so with the TravelScoot!

SOLID RUBBER TIRES

The TravelScoot comes with the upgraded wide front wheel which improves overall performance while traversing uneven or rough terrain. Our wide front wheel will greatly help with navigation through older streets that are not well maintained. If the front wheel gets damaged, don't worry. It can be easily swapped out with the click of a button at a fraction of the cost to repair and replace a front-wheel drive-motor.

Solid rubber tires mean no more flats! No matter the terrain you are traveling over, you'll never have to worry about the tires. TravelScoot's tires are also wider than its competitors to make traveling on rough terrain easier. Traversing grass, hard-packed gravel, and uneven ground is now doable.

Tire sizes

Front 7.87 x 2.95

Left 7.32 x 2.75

Right 7.32 x 2.6

REVERSE FUNCTIONALITY

All current TravelScoot models have forward and reverse. Backup speed is going to be lower for all those tights spots that you may find yourself in such as elevators, dressing rooms, small restrooms, etc. This will provide you with unsurpassed maneuverability.

EASY-TO-USE CONTROLS

The controls are simple to use. You don't need to push multiple buttons to get the speed you want. Just turn the scooter on and engage the twist-grip throttle to accelerate as needed. The speed of the Escape is 4.7 mph by default (can be lowered to 3.2 or raised to 5.2 mph) Whether at the car show, exploring nature trails, or touring the city, you can go the speed you need.

FULLY-ADJUSTABLE SEAT

Everyone has different mobility needs. Some people can't lift their legs over a bar, some can. Some need to straddle the seat, and others just need to sit down and position themselves to get comfortable. Whatever your needs, we have the seat for you. With our adjustable seat, you can easily remove the backrest with a push of a button, swivel the seat, adjust the height of the cushions, and get the right support you need for your back.

ROTATING SEAT

Simply rotate the seat to facilitate getting on and off by releasing an easy-to-use lever clamp. You can adjust the clamp tension to suit your hand strength. Also included with every TravelScoot is an aluminum seat spacer which helps maintain seat height when the clamp is released.

HEIGHT-ADJUSTABLE BACKREST

The compact TravelScoot backrest gives you the support you need where you need it the most. Just use the provided Allen wrench to adjust the backrest cushion to your preferred comfort level, whether you need support mid-back, your lower lumbar region, or anywhere in between.

TERRAIN

The Escape is capable of traveling over most grass, hard-packed gravel, and trails. If you are looking for adventure, the TravelScoot will take you there! Come see our customer gallery and the many adventures that the TravelScoot has taken them by clicking here.
