We found this walking stick in Gatlinburg, and my husband has used it many times. Looks slick too.
The Igloo Marine Backpack Cooler fits nicely on the back of the Triad 750 CSX. It keeps food and drinks cold when you go out to have a picnic.
It is essential that you have the Triad tool bag close at all times. Whether you need to adjust the brakes or make other minor adjustments, don't go out without it. This
Ibera Bicycle Top Tube Phone Bag is the perfect item that can be used on the scooter to keep the tools with you at all times.
It was recommended to me by Jeff from Tri Electric Scooters, one of the great authorized distributors of Triad products. Jeff and Missy, who run Tri Electric Scooters, are from Georgia. If you are down south, GO visit them!
Anyhow, the bag fits the necessary tools, and the belt makes it easy to put in multiple places on the scooter. When we went to Gatlinburg, we bought a cool walking stick down there so hubby could leave the scooter and walk around in a store if the aisles were too small. (Actually, he used the stick to play mini golf at Cooter's.) The bag doubled as a walking stick holder as you can see by the picture.
Depending on the seat you purchase, you can also put it on the floor of the CSX or other places.
The tall mirror that comes with the Triad didn't do a good job of seeing what is coming up behind for my husband. His own body got in the way. We have trails in our town where we take the scooter and bikers use the trails. It is wide enough for my husband and I to go side by side, but when a biker comes up, I need to get behind him. Bikes are quiet. He looked and looked and finally came up with this solution. The tall mirror might work for you if you are short, but it didn't work for him.
He couoldn't see folks coming up behind him with the standard mirror.
Works just like the side mirror on your car.
We initially purchased the Triad CSX with their standard seat with the back. My husband found it uncomfortable for long rides, so Jeff stepped in again with this recommendation. Sure to become a standard line, Jeff is from Tri Electric Scooters, one of the great authorized distributors of Triad products. Jeff and Missy, who run Tri Electric Scooters, are from Georgia. If you are down south, GO visit them!
One of the bonuses of this seat is that it still has a back, but the back isn't as long as the standard one that comes with the scooter. If you have a tight space to get it into, then it might fit with the lower back without having to take the seat off. As of Septemeber 2017, my husband still has the Subaru Crosstrek, and he still has to take the seat off to get it into his car.
We are still on the search for the ultimate seat though. So if you have recommendations, please post your comments below!
The simple hose clamp can be a handy tool if you have to dissassemble and reassemble your scooter for transport. If you put the hose clamp on the seat pole at your preferred seat height, you will always get the perfect seat height with no effort. My husband, until we find a permanent solution, takes his scooter to work every week in his Subaru Crosstrek. This helps him immensely!
We picked it up for less than $2 at Home Depot, but you can also purchase it from Amazon.
Every time you put the seat down, it goes exactly where it should. No fuss.
We had breakfast in downtown Gatlinburg, and we found this handmade walking stick in a little store that was closing. I wanted my husband to have something that he could lean on if we had to get into a place where the scooter couldn't go. My husband can also walk short distances so many times we left the scooter at the front of the restaurant and he walked to our seats. Even though he can walk short distances, he has balance problems. My husband says he doesn't mind falling down but he doesn't like falling down in front of people. He also doesn't want people to think that he is drunk when he isn't. He never wanted to use a cane, but this fit into the atmosphere of the town. He uses it back in New England now too.
I searched on Amazon for something similar and found this. It comes in different heights so be sure to check out all the options. Please let me know if you try it how you like it. Also, if you could comment on if you took something like this on an airplane, comment too. We just put ours in the car.
As always, please check with your doctor or health provider if something like this is right for you.
Works in close quarters too if you place it correctly.
