Detailed description
The Drive Medical Flex is designed for straightforward travel and easy storage. It folds down quickly and features a convenient carry handle so you can lift it into a car boot or onto other transport. It weighs 27.25 kg, which keeps it lighter than many travel scooters while still being sturdy enough for everyday use.
Getting comfortable is simple thanks to the height-adjustable tiller and the padded seat and backrest, which give you control over your driving position. The scooter travels at up to 4 mph, suitable for pavements, shopping centres and local routes where a steady, controlled speed is preferred.
Safety on slopes and uneven ground is supported by an anti-roll back system and anti-tip rear wheels, while the four solid puncture-proof tyres mean you do not need to worry about punctures when out and about. The scooter uses an automatic electromagnetic brake system for dependable stopping.
Power comes from a 25.9V 12Ah lithium-ion battery that is described as airline friendly and gives a maximum range of around 13 miles on a full charge, depending on conditions and rider weight. The scooter can fold to a compact size in around 12 seconds, making it easy to stow quickly when you arrive at your destination.
This model is available in Red or Blue, letting you pick the colour you prefer. Folding can be done electronically with the remote control or manually from the tiller, so you can choose the method that suits you best.
