Ortomotion Ortoglide CB44 Pavement Mobility Scooter

Our Take

The Ortomotion Ortoglide CB44 is built for all-weather use and visibility. It sits in Class 2, so it runs on pavements rather than roads. A feet-first standing platform also keeps you upright in a supported posture. A full lighting package keeps you safe at dawn, dusk and after dark. In addition, the frame carries riders up to 114 kg.

A single charge covers around 20 miles, so daily errands and longer outings fit comfortably. Moreover, headlights, brake lights and indicators improve safety in low light. Weather-resistant covers protect connectors and displays in the wet. As a result, you can rely on it whatever the weather.

The CB44 weighs 59.9 kg and does not fold or split into parts. Because of that weight, it will not lift into a car boot. Instead, you would move it with a ramp or a tail-lift. For most owners, therefore, it stays local and travels under its own power.

This scooter suits practical, all-season users who ride in low light or wet weather. However, the standing position takes some getting used to and will not suit everyone. Buyers who prefer a seated ride should look at a traditional scooter instead. In short, for safe all-weather standing mobility, the Ortomotion Ortoglide CB44 is a strong choice.

The Ortomotion Ortoglide CB44 covers everyday local runs comfortably, and a couple of others do much the same. The Alulite trades some range for about 15 miles and the Drive Medical Dual Wheel Auto is easier to handle at 49.9kg, while the Drive Medical Mercury Neo 6 carries more, up to 136kg. Any of them would suit much the same use.

The Ortomotion Ortoglide CB44 is a comfortable companion for local, around-town journeys. As ever, the best way to judge a scooter is to try it for yourself. The Find this Product Near Me search finds dealers in your area to compare on price, and Buyer’s Guide runs through what matters.
