My Review This is the most important part. I spent over 4 months
looking at and trying different mobility scooters. With 3
dealers in my area, I went to them all. Asked loads of question,
looked online and talked to other users. The verdict, buy for
comfort, not your pocket. Since buying the
GoGo I have found far to
many people who told me, "ahh well it was half price the dealer
wanted". But found it was uncomfortable, the seat wouldn't go
far enough back, the "tiller" (handlebar) was painful to use, it
needs new batteries at 100 each, plus dozens of other
complaints. What's the point of spending $1300 / $1500 on something
you won't use?. SO PLEASE TRY take a look at the
Lexis Light. (the
one I really fancied was too painful to use after 8 minutes
trial) FIRST RULE. How far do you want to travel, I wanted to go
places so I went for a twin battery 25 mile one. SECOND RULE,
Pneumatic or solid tyres, mine has solid tyres, no option till
later 2012, but after finding the state of pavements I'm pleased
they are solid. OK the ride may be a little firmer (not painful)
but no worries about punctures. THIRD RULE, GET INSURANCE. Mine
is a class 3, road legal (free road tax) I have insurance for 2
million plus get u home service in case of breakdown. (you never
know) RULE FOUR, Even riding mainly on pavements, shock & bumps
WILL take its toll in time. So when buying used ones, it WILL
have done more miles than stated. Have it checked out (mine has
a total milage on it that I can't alter. Older ones DON'T). RULE
FIVE, Check prices, Online is over 50% cheaper if you have the
money to buy through "Discover Your Mobility" The one I bought, I would buy again as its
only 25.5 inches wide (65cm)so i can get around most shops with
it. I purchased it from Discovermymobility.com, as will be my next
one. I hope this will benefit you.

Bobcat 3 Wheel Compact Scooter Review
The Bobcat 3 Wheel Compact Scooter is a budget mobility scooter
from Pride mobility with the emphasis on lightweight independent
mobility. This scooter disassembles into 4 small lightweight
pieces and is easy to reassemble without any tools and the
lightest piece that makes up this 4 piece assembly is 55 pounds.
The total weight that the scooter can support is 250 pounds and
has great maneuverability due to the extremely tight turning
radius of about 32.2” coupled with the amount of adjustable

Continuing on about the seat there are many options to adjust,
