How have options changed?
Recently extra mobility options have become available due to an increase use of two-wheel mobility products.
The current choices are:

Traditional three or four-wheel Mobility Scooters.

With increased availability, electric bikes are now being used as an alternative to electric
mobility scooters. With more models available and the prices decreasing over the last few
years. They provide an alternative to riding a bike, since you can equalize the exercise to meet your level of fitness or weather conditions such as wind.
