WOW WOW WOW really is all I can say about this new Apex Rapid travel boot scooter from Pride, this scooter has only been out for a couple of months but the feedback I have received and heard has been very high standards indeed and the Apex Rapid has certainly made an impact. It has full suspension all round which works with so much delight you really have to try it to believe what I am saying. The Apex Rapid also comes with 18Ah batteries which will deliver a range around 8-10 miles on a charge, It comes with solid tyres but with the superb suspension you wont even notice them, the solid tyres also allow you to never worry about puctures while you're out on you're scooter. The Apex Rapid has a front curb light, Delta shaped handle bars which many people find far more comfortable to use than a standard T-Bar handlebar and also features high level charging socket so there is no need to bend down to far to plug it in.
The Apex Rapid is a 4MPH scooter but to me feels a little slower than that, but still by far the best boot scooter on the market at present that features all round suspension.
Charging
When charging your scooter you should be aiming to charge it for around 8-10 hours (overnight is a good time) always remember to charge the scooter after every time you use it. If you will not be using you're scooter for a period of time in winter for example we strongly recommend you charge you're scooter at least once a week to keep the battery's topped up, this can help prolong the life of you're batterys
Servicing
Currently servicing is not required in the UK on Mobility Scooters however we always recommend that you try to get your scooter serviced once a year the same as you would do with a car, this can help make sure everything is running smoothly and possibly alert you if anything may need repair or replacement this can be done at most local Mobility Shops, should cost around £50.00-£75.00 and take just a few hours to complete.
Insurance
Insurance on mobility scooters is not required by law, however we feel it is worthwhile to insure any scooter for peace of mind. Not only can you cover yourself if you're scooter is lost stolen or damaged, but many policies come with Public Liability also should you be involved in an incident with a third party.
Many insurance companies also offer a Recovery/Breakdown service as well as Extended Warranties.
Pricing Guide
We have researched this scooter both in many UK showrooms and online and have found this scooter will retail in store for between £900 and £1300.
The scooter can be found online for anywhere between £850 and £1300.
