The upper port is for the use of bike racks only and it will support all of them made to my knowledge. The lower port is by far the best port for the wheel chair rack as it is much stronger. I have used mine for over 15 years with no problems at all. Great Product. Be sure to also get their tightener which will stop all movement side to side and up and down as it prevents all rattling and movement. No more tilted racks or rattles.

I believe it is the batteries (we have regular, not lithium ion batteries) or the "chassis" part. Both pieces are approximately 25 or so pounds apiece. The entire scooter weighs something like 65 or 70 lbs.

I think it would work perfectly fine with a scooter, it's light weight and should strap down easily. Thanks

I have used it for up to 250 lbs successfully. Very solid chair but does have a large footprint. Make sure it will fit your space requirements.

The scooter weighs over 90LB, so no shoulder carry unless you are actually the Hulk. I use a chain coil bike lock around the front hub.

I haven't read what the stated weight is for the carrier. I use it for my 10-pound cat. I've found that, when I carry it one-handed by the handle, the bottom seems to sag down (there are many hinged panels for folding flat, so they get pulled down). I carry it with my right hand on the handle, and my left hand supporting the bottom. It just feels more secure and steadier for the cat. I don't mind doing this, as he loves this carrier so much, I keep it out in the living room with the door off when we are going somewhere... it's his home! (He can also sit up in it without his head touching the top, which is a bonus.) In summary, if you don't mind supporting the bottom, your pet could probably go up to 20 pounds in this thing.

I am not sure what the recommended weight limit is. My son is only 8. I know my husband has ridden on the scooter but not for long intervals. I am sure it would work but over time the motor may give out sooner.

You would need the following carrier with ramp for your scooter.Tow Tuff TTF-284860SCR Universal Steel Carrier with Ramp, 60-Inch

Not sure, but it is more than a transport chair - I have 2 transport chairs for my son and bought this because it converts. The foot rests are substantial - more than a transport chair. My guess is that its 20 pounds without the big wheels. Even with the big wheels on it collapses and folds well and fits into the trunk once the foot rests are removed. The big wheels makes it much easier to push for extended time and over uneven ground. If your main goal is light weight, I would stick to the traditional transport chair.

Thank you for your email, the weight capacity on the scooter is only 100lbs. We do have several options of scooters to accommodate. If you have any further questions please contact us anytime.

Actual weight ? But is heavy for a transport wheelchair. It seems as heavy as a reg. wheelchair and not suited for putting inside your car. Also one handle has broken off and I had to use duck tape. The seat belt never clicked shut and is now broken. Their customer service sucks !

I have a Triumph Street 675, its 400 pounds. I would not put more than that much weight on my carrier. As it is it shakes allot. I would not take it on long trips now.

I bought mine, thinking I would ride it around the campsite while on vacation, turns out, it's too heavy for that, however, there is slide in hitch carriers for handicap scooters that have a loading ramp included, seems to me ,it might make loading easier. Gene W.

I'm 6'1", 165lbs, I commute 1-2 miles every day on mine to my office with no issues. I will tell you that it requires a fair bit of maintenance; oiling, screw tightening, cleaning, etc. More expensive scooters probably will last longer.

I weigh 110 LBS but my son visits me often and he plays around on it and he weighs 180 LBS and has the dog (at 70 LBS ) on his lap.I have had no problem with this scooter, I love it, I truly do enjoy it.

I have no way to measure the weight of the carrier, but I can put put it on my Prius without any problems. I would guesstimate 30 to 35 lbs.

I love this U.S.A. made Basket, they would surly handle you dog ok, but it might not be easy to attach to you scooter, unless you lived in Rockport Tx. then might be able to talk me in to attaching it for you for free. :). If you want look at the Wald web page, & look over what they have. http://www.waldsports.com/ Best to you Adios
