Pride Victory 10.2 3-Wheel Scooter

About this product

The three wheel Victory 10.2 is the same scooter as the four wheel version with one front wheel instead of two. That single change is the whole decision, and it is worth understanding properly rather than choosing on looks.

What three wheels buys you

A tighter turn. Without a second front wheel there is more room for the steering to swing, so the scooter turns in noticeably less space than its four wheel sibling. That matters in shop aisles, at the end of a hallway, in a lift, or turning around in a kitchen. If the scooter will spend much of its life indoors or in tight retail spaces, three wheels is usually the better answer.

There is also more legroom, because the front end is narrower and there is no second wheel arch to work around. Taller riders often find the three wheeler more comfortable for that reason alone.

What it costs you

Stability on uneven ground. Three wheels have less resistance to tipping when crossing a slope at an angle, dropping off a kerb, or riding a cambered pavement. It is perfectly safe when driven sensibly, but if your routes involve rough verges, steep camber or grass, the four wheel version is the safer choice.

The same underneath

Both versions carry 400 lbs, run to 5.2 mph, and cover up to 13.5 miles on a charge. Both use feather-touch disassembly, a wraparound delta tiller that suits either hand, and 10 inch solid non-scuffing tires that never need inflating. The lighting package covers path, ambient and puddle lighting, there is a USB charging port on the tiller, and storage runs to a large front basket, a hidden compartment and a cup holder.

Ordering

At 139 lbs it comes apart for a car, but the sections are not light. Come and try both the three and four wheel in the showroom before deciding.
