Description
The Golden Buzzaround XLS HD GB121B-SHZ is a three-wheel travel scooter rated 325 lb (147 kg), with comfort spring suspension and a 37.5 in (953 mm) turn.
What does it do and how does it work?
- A 50 A controller gives a top speed of 4 mph (6.4 km/h).
- Two 12 Ah batteries give up to 9 mi (14.5 km) at 200 lb; the 22 Ah XR option raises it to 18 mi (29 km).
- Solid low-profile tires (7.5 front, 8 rear), 4 in (102 mm) deck clearance and comfort spring suspension with hand-adjustable rear preload.
- An angle-adjustable LED headlight, USB port, phone holder and cup holder are standard.
- The wraparound delta tiller has finger and thumb controls; the stadium seat is 17 by 14.5 in with three height positions.
- It disassembles in four steps into five pieces; the front half weighs 35 lb (16 kg).
Who is it for, and who should choose something else?
- A rider up to 325 lb (147 kg) who wants a take-apart scooter.
- The 37.5 in (953 mm) turn suits tight aisles and small rooms.
- The four-wheel GB124A-SHZ has a 44 in turn.
- For postural support, ask your therapist about a power wheelchair.
Will it fit?
- Length 41 in (1041 mm), width 20 in (508 mm) and turning radius 37.5 in (953 mm).
- The seat is 17 by 14.5 in (432 by 368 mm) and sits 22.25 to 23.75 in (565 to 603 mm) high.
- It weighs 100 lb (45 kg); the front half is 35 lb and the rear half 28 lb.
- Measure the doorway and car opening; a free home assessment checks both.
Using it day to day
- Release the frame, lift off the seat and basket, and separate the halves; no tools are needed.
- Charge for 6 to 8 hours after use, and 12 hours the first time.
- The freewheel lever lets you push it on level ground; never use it while seated or on a slope.
- The seat has three height positions, and the tiller angle adjusts for the rider.
What does it work with, and what are its limits?
- The 325 lb (147 kg) capacity includes the rider and anything carried.
- The maximum incline is 6 degrees; never take a curb over 4 in (102 mm) or back over one.
- Use AGM or gel batteries only, and replace both together.
- The airline must approve it, and range falls with weight and terrain.
Which version should I choose?
- This three-wheel model for the tightest turn; the four-wheel GB124A-SHZ for outdoor stability.
- The 12 Ah pair for shorter trips, or the 22 Ah XR option for 18 mi.
- Red and blue are standard; optional shrouds come in six more colours.
How does it compare?
The four-wheel GB124A-SHZ adds outdoor stability but turns in 44 in. The travel scooter range lists other take-apart models.
