A Picture Is Worth A 1000 Words
Simplicity and reliability - Are partners. one goes with the
other. A picture is worth a thousand words. With the hood up
(simple hinge with quick release ), you can see the whole power
unit. Notice the battery pack which consists of 2 batteries placed
to fit under the riders feet. The motor and control mechanisms are
shown by the rear wheel. The ZIP has a frame that has been
powder coated and baked at high tempature to protect it from the
elements. The motor is 1 horsepower, and the drive belt has teeth
so that it wont slip. The ZIP will carry over 350 pounds. the
controls are the most simple and reliable on the market.
The ZIP - is a clean functional
design. sit or stand, your choice
because the seat is removable. The
seat is quite adequate however ther
is the option of a much larger more
comfortable seat if you wish. Built
low to the ground makes it easy to
get on or off and to easily control it
from a sitting or standind riding
position. Wheels are 9" diameter for
stability and 3.5" wide providing
excellent traction with minimum rolling .
resistence. The ZIP also has an automatic internal battery charger
which will fully charge its battery pack within 6 hours.
Portability - The ZIP is a delightfully portable scooter. The length is 40" and it folds up into a package that is 12.3" high, so it fits into very tight places such as a Car trunk, Van, RV, Boat, |
Airplane, ETC. The fold up takes only seconds, a few turns of a quick
release hand bolt as is found on racing bicycle axels. The weight of
the unit is 68 pounds. To make it even lighter, unplug and lift out the
removable battery pack, (another 5 second task). Now you have two
packs, the scooter weighs 40 pounds and the battery pack weighs 28
- very managable weights and sizes. Portability comes in handy when
going to an event that has parking shortages. simpley park your car
where parking is available, remove the ZIP, unfold and ride to your
destination. You will find yourself going to many places that you now avoid.
