mamaofami Posted January 19, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Just got my Travel Scoot and am wondering if I got the right size. They gave me the junior scoot since I am under 5 feet. Does anyone have a picture of themselves on their Travel Scoot. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLM77 Posted January 19, 2011 #2 Share Posted January 19, 2011 This link will take you to "Elizabeth's Travelscoot" blog: http://mytravelscoot.blogspot.com/search?q=junior I searched on junior in the upper left corner and discovered a picture of a 5'2" lady on hers. It is the second post dated October 6, 2010. I am 5' 7" and the full size is perfect for me. The following link: http://mytravelscoot.blogspot.com/search?q=denise will show you a picture of a petite (4' 11") lady on her full-sized Travelscoot.

mamaofami Posted January 19, 2011 Author #3 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Thank you so much. That really helped me. I know if my hands were stretched out I wouldn't be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EileenN Posted January 20, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Is it possible to shop for a travelscoot for a best price? Or is the pricing standard. Always looking for a bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katisdale Posted January 20, 2011 #5 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I think the price is standard unless you are buying a second hand unit which may show up on one of the sites like craig's list or e-bay. If you want a new one (or don't want to wait until a used one shows up) there is only one supplier. As far as being short, I have the opposite problem as I am quite tall - over 6 ft - and was worried mine would be too low to the ground. There is an extender that comes with it which I definitely needed. The handles are adjustable so they can be at the height you find most comfortable. There are no arm rests. I really like mine.

xxoocruiser Posted January 20, 2011 #6 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Is it possible to shop for a travelscoot for a best price? Or is the pricing standard. Always looking for a bargain. There are some online retailers that are selling the Travelscoot but their prices are considerably higher than buying the scooter direct from the manufacturer. There is a company called Scoot Anywhere http://www.scootanywhere.com/ that now rents the travelscoot , you might consider contacting them to see if sell their used scooters . Otherwise for a better price you need to buy it on the secondary market. Since it's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nieciez Posted January 22, 2011 #7 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I am 4'11" and I've had a full sized Travelscoot for 18 months. I have the seat at the lowest position but I do raise the handle bars. I had a hard time deciding between the Jr and the full sized but went with the full as I was afraid the center of gravity on the narrower Jr would be an issue with my 245 weight. It works GREAT for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
