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 TravelScoot, 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 lightweight 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.)

LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES

Made of 100% Panasonic cells, housed in either an aluminum case or high-impact Sabic C6600 case with a UL 94-5VB flame rating. These batteries are tough, built to last, and will certainly go the distance. Click here to learn more!

DIMENSIONS

Folded dimensions (inches): Length 29 or 34 (w/front wheel), Width 21.5, Height 10.25. The dimensions of the lightweight TravelScoot mobility scooter are spacious enough to ensure a comfortable ride but compact enough to fit cruise ship doors. It can be folded up for easy carry while keeping everything together; perfect for just about any trip. With a mobility scooter as light and compact as the TravelScoot, airport baggage handlers will love you! Note: Both the Escape and Cruiser share the same dimensions. Although the wheel and motor size differ, the frame is the same.

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.

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.

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.

The Escape

Posted by Tom on 18th Oct 2024

My wife has used the scooter for a couple of shopping trips and loves it. I love it for the fact that it is truly portable and light weight. Looking forward to taking it with us on our cruises instead of having to rent one that barely fits in our cabin. Overall, the scooter is well designed and the workmanship is excellent.

Got stopped 3 times on first day

Posted by Nancy Faire on 16th Sep 2024

I was very hesitant to get a mobility device because of the stigma of it all. However, when I went to Home Depot when doing the 3-day trial, I got stopped three times by people wanting to know where I got the scooter from. This is going to save my life. It's so lightweight and strong. I can actually lift this into my vehicle and do whatever I want now. I asked Kevin for more cards because I know I'll need them.

A Godsend!

Posted by B. Dwarika on 4th Sep 2024

I cannot sufficiently thank your company for creating this scooter . It has been a daily companion in recent years . I live on an acre of space and a second acre with a community with training programs . This level of involvement with my community and the fulfillment of my goal at this stage of my life would not have been possible without this light weight scooter. It is next to my bed. I use it from the moment I wake up till I go to bed. It may be odd to say to you but I thank and bless you all at TravelScoot for the quality of life I can still maintain while I am so challenged with knee pains . Thank you for putting this product on the market and truly much appreciation for the support you have always offered when I have reached out to you .

The Escape

Posted by Marcia Hansen on 4th Sep 2024

Love the Escape! My daughter has an older model and we knew it would be lightweight, foldable, and go just about everywhere. The heartier front tire is great for off-roading onto nature trails and going on tours on vacations. I'm tall and Kevin helped customize for my long legs. Note, luggage and baskets aren't usable in front with my long legs, but can be used in back and below, no problem!

I can lift it out of my SUV

Posted by Heather Pinkerton on 20th Aug 2024

I am an 80-year-old female with arthritic hands and CHF but can still lift my scooter into the trunk of our SUV it has a flat deck so it’s easy to roll out as well. I just lower the handlebar and remove the backrest, nothing else. Wouldn’t be able to leave home without the Escape as my heart condition gets me extremely out of breath.

Nothing else compares

Posted by Richard W. on 20th Aug 2024

I love my TravelScoot. Bought it with $100 3-day trial. I rode it around the house for about a minute. The real test was lifting it into my station wagon. Removed the seat/harp, battery, and front wheel just to be on the safe side. No problem for this 79yo male with foot drop after 4 back surgeries. Last surgery was a 9-level fusion with a couple of rods holding me together. So when I tell you this is the only one to buy, it is. We’re not getting any younger or stronger.

Travelscoot Escape

Posted by Thom Hanson on 12th Aug 2024

To say I was impressed is no where near enough. This little critter took me thru the grocery store and check stand right on out across the parking lot. It will do it with plenty of speed and agility. I then went to the department store and able to do the same thing. The battery that comes with it still shows that it is full of power. After running around you just unplug the battery, remove the seat and fold down the handlebars to fit it back in the car. Because of the Texas heat, I bring the battery in the house, my scoot stays in the back of the car ready for the next run. Easy lite weight for lifting in and out. It is the real dream machine.

A hit on the cruise ships

Posted by KATHERINE KEISER on 31st Jul 2024

We just got back from Alaska on a cruise and this little scooter was so popular! It doesn't look like your average mobility scooter and is so compact and light. The crew told me that the I didn't get a room for a scooter and that I wasn't allowed to take the scooter inside my room. Then I folded it and lifted it myself (I'm 89 years old). They looked very surprised and had no issues with me taking the TravelScoot in my room. I had so many people asking me questions about the scooter and let people lift and try it out. I'm so happy with this purchase. It's the perfect scooter for me.

Lightweight and easy for air travel

Posted by Jamie on 25th Jul 2024

The Escape is a perfect experience for air travel. You ride it down the jetway and to the side of the plane, remove the battery, lower the handlebars, and walk on the plane. I no longer need to rely on wheel chair services at the airport and the luggage handlers appreciate how lightweight it is.

LONG LASTING

Posted by Sheila W. on 18th Jul 2024

I was one of the first people to purchase a TravelScoot back in 2004. That belt-drive scooter was absolutely amazing and it got me through 20 years of hard use. I've since "upgraded" to the new Escape model and love how I can go on any cruise ship now without worrying about the new door policies many of the cruise companies have implemented. The Escape is dimensionally smaller than the Deluxe but much easier to get on and off and is lighter than the previous model. I also like how my feet aren't so far up on the footrests as before. I didn't really fold it before but it's nice to know that if I need to, it folds much easier than any other scooter I've tried.
