Our ultra-lightweight Scooters make use of TIG-welded 7005 aircraft-grade aluminum that has been heat-treated for frames and other parts. This type of welding results in stronger, cleaner welds and are more attractive compared to the common MIG welds found in most mobility scooters today. The frame of our lightest mobility scooter weighs just half as much as the competitors. This lets you carry your scooter over longer distances and on more difficult terrain.

In addition our scooters are constructed with the rider's weight positioned over the drive wheel. This prevents front-wheel-drives scooters to spin on uneven or inclines surfaces. The result is a more comfortable ride, and a significant decrease in costly repairs due to front-wheel damage.

Solid rubber tires are a further benefit of our ultralightweight mobility scooters. They are more durable than pneumatic (air) tires on many scooters, and are more comfortable to navigate on rough roads or unpaved ones. Solid rubber tires are quieter than pneumatics and don't catch on obstacles.
