Product Basics

The Golden Liteway is a truly innovative scooter. It provides the maneuverability of a 3-wheel scooter, and the stability of a 4-wheel scooter with its dual front wheels placed in the center. Another great feature of this scooter is its tubular frame. This provides a rigidity and durability not often found in a scooter of its kind, while keeping the weight to a minimum so it’s easy to transport. The Liteway is a great hybrid between a full size 3-wheel scooter and a 3-wheel travel model.

Transportation is a breeze with the Liteway. Simply remove the seat, fold the tiller down, lift up on the battery pack’s handle and it automatically unlocks and slides right out. The tubular frame makes it easy to grab and lift into the trunk of your car. Another great thing about the Liteway is that its freewheel mode allows you to lift up on the front end of the scooter and wheel it to wherever you need to go. Then when you’re ready re-position the tiller, replace the seat, and drop the battery pack into place. It automatically locks in, and you’re all set.

The Liteway also includes a unique under-the-seat basket. It has plenty of room for your personal items, and it’s held into place by magnets. There’s also plenty of leg room because you can place your feet next to the front tiller, unlike many scooters which have a large shroud around the front wheel which limits foot space. So with plenty of room for you and your things, the Liteway from Golden Technologies is a great value!

Reviewer: Robert L. from Moore, OK (caregiver)
End User Desc: my wife is 68 years young and suffers from emphasymia and small cell lung cancer

Strengths: everything in the design makes it simple to dissasemble and assemble and i especially like the way the battery slides in and out for easy charging.

Weaknesses: the steering was a little sensitive at first , compared to the larger scooters my wife would use in the department stores, it just takes a little getting use to, and she loves it now.

Gives me freedom with ease of operation.

Reviewer: Hazel M. from San Dimas, CA
End User Desc: I am 58 years old. I have had 3 back surgeries and I need both of my knees replaced. I cannot stand for more than 10 minutes and I cannot walk very

Strengths: It's easy to disassemble and very light weight. I really like the foot and leg room it has which none of the other inexpensive scooters had to offer.

Weaknesses: We take the scooter apart and put it into the back of my Suburban. The seat flops around as I'm driving. I would like to find a way to secure the seat without having to leave it on the scooter.

Excellent Tradeoff Between Strength & Portability

Reviewer: Nicholas K. from Waterford, NY (caregiver)
End User Desc: 84; 260 lbs; Congestive Heart Failure leaves her puffed after walking a short distance, a replaced knee, and Degenerative Joint in the spine

Strengths: Unlike other travel scooters, the one piece tubular steel frame gives enormous strength & stability. The "jockey (dual) wheel" in the front gives four wheel stability with three wheel turning radius. The shipped seat is really about 17" x 17", not 15" x 15"

Weaknesses: It's painted steel, not molded plastic, so it can scratch more easily. It takes up a bit more room than scooters that can break into more parts, but there is never a challenge with reassembly.
