Used Monarch Mobility Genie
The Monarch Genie is a light folding boot scooter with a magnesium frame. You fold it by hand. It goes up to 4 mph and up to 9 miles on a charge (Monarch's figure), and weighs 19 kg with its battery. Most of Monarch's pages give its maximum user weight as 19 stone, but one says 18 stone, so we give 18 st (114 kg) to be safe.
