Our Take
The Freerider FR1 City is a Class 3 four-wheel scooter. It runs at up to 8 mph, so it is road-legal as well as usable on the pavement at reduced speed. It carries riders up to 160 kg. Freerider publish no range figure for the FR1 City, so ask the dealer what the fitted 50Ah batteries will cover. It is a rigid road scooter that does not dismantle, weighing around 103.6 kg in one piece, so it is designed to stay at home with a ramp or hoist rather than travel by car. The Freerider FR1 City suits riders who want road-legal 8 mph travel on a full-size frame.The Freerider FR1 City is at its best on everyday local trips, and it isn’t the only scooter that suits that kind of use. The Invacare Leo is lighter at 83kg, while the Roma Medical Torino is very similar on paper.
For getting about the neighbourhood, the Freerider FR1 City does the job without fuss. Numbers only tell you so much, so do try before you buy where you can. To compare prices near you, try the Find this Product Near Me search, and Buyer’s Guide is worth a look for the key things to check.
