Differences between the Easy Go and a mobility scooter

There are some major differences between the Easy Go and a mobility scooter. One big difference, for example, is the way of giving gas. On a mobility scooter you give gas by squeezing a lever. On the Easy Go with a thumb throttle or hand throttle (optional). Another difference is the way the vehicle comes to a stop. On a mobility scooter this is by releasing a lever and on the scooter bike this is by operating the hand brake(s), just like on a bicycle.

Customer experience scooter bike Easy Go - Astrid van der Plank
I am Astrid van der Plank (44) and I own the Easy Go scooter bike since July 2018. I use a scooter bike because I have Spinocerebellar Ataxia type 28 (SCA28). SCA28 is a rare chronic neurological disease that, among other things, causes balance and coordination problems. When I could no longer cycle on a bike with two wheels, because I fell continuously, I started looking at alternatives. I tried several Van Raam bikes, but nowadays I am happy to use my scooter bike Easy Go.

Customer experience scooter bike Easy Go - Ankie van den Bosch
When they discovered I have Multiple Sclerosis* in 2000, I already had an e-bike for several years. Because my strength and energy continued to decrease, cycling became unsafe and I became insecure. It became difficult to get out of the car, to get away at a traffic light or to brake. And all this began to demand a lot of effort in traffic. I got scared when the wind was very strong. I avoided bridges and dunes.
