Scooter Saddle

What is a scooter saddle?

As with most two-wheeled vehicles, it is possible to equip your scooter with a saddle. To do this, you can opt for a scooter equipped with a saddle by default or buy one to attach to your vehicle.

This is an accessory that allows the driver to sit while riding. There are many types of seats on the market suitable for all body types to ensure optimal driving comfort.

Why use scooter saddles?

Using a saddle will allow you to enjoy complete comfort when riding an electric scooter. A saddle gives you the opportunity to sit back and relax during your ride. You won't have to get tired of standing, especially if you're riding long distances.

You will also benefit from greater stability which will allow you to drive on narrower roads. The saddles are also an ideal alternative for people with health problems but who still want to ride a scooter without fear of exhaustion.

The saddle also allows you to benefit from a greater level of safety. Indeed, with a saddle, you will be more stable but also more focused on the road which will allow you to maintain greater control over your vehicle. You do not risk losing your balance and falling.

How to choose your scooter saddles?

Before purchasing your electric scooter saddle, you must take into account a certain number of criteria to ensure that the chosen model will completely suit you. Here are our criteria:

Ergonomics

The saddle is an accessory designed to ensure your safety, your balance and above all your comfort. The latter also depends on the capacity of your vehicle to fit in your bag. For this, we recommend that you opt for foldable models that disassemble easily and are light enough to be carried in your backpack. You will therefore be able to walk more easily with it, in the streets or on public transport.

Also be sure to find out how your saddle is attached. Some have been designed to slow down the installation time of the saddle on your electric scooter.

Saddle Components

It is important to opt for a solid and shock-resistant saddle. To do this, you will need to invest in a saddle with very firm padding in sponge or foam for example which will ensure comfort and solidity. Also choose leather or faux leather saddles to ensure that your saddle lasts long enough. There are cheaper models made of plastic, for example, which offer good value for money if you don't want to invest too much in an electric scooter saddle.

The brand of your scooter

Before choosing a saddle you must take into account an essential parameter: the brand of scooter you are using. Indeed, unless you opt for a universal saddle, you must choose a saddle corresponding to the type of vehicle you own. This will allow easier and more efficient attachment as well as assured driving comfort.
