Our Elite model knee scooters are the only knee scooters for hire in NZ that are constructed with steering rods on the front wheels — like a car has. This provides a more secure and safer ride — absorbing many of the bumps you encounter as you move around.
Most other knee scooters for hire in NZ have a front wheel assembly system built like a child's toy tricycle — the wheels are directly connected to the steering wheel. This means the scooter is much more unstable on bumps and changes of surfaces (even when moving from lino to carpet in the house).
Smooth, steady steering. Independent front wheels on steering rods keep the scooter tracking straight and soak up bumps, so the handlebars stay in your hands instead of trying to escape. Brakes that actually brake. Linear cable brakes are less likely to stretch, fray and snap, so when you squeeze, it stops.
Tall? Our knee scooters are built for you. If you’re over 5'10" (178cm), the handlebars on some knee scooters don’t rise high enough to keep your back straight, which can make it easier to pitch forward over the bars if you hit an unexpected bump.
Our handlebars extend higher than on the other knee scooters we’ve compared against, so you can stay upright, stable and in control.
