FreeRider FR168-4S II Bariatric 4-Wheel Scooter — 460 lb Capacity
Product Code: FR168
The FreeRider FR168-4S II is a heavy-duty 4-wheel scooter for larger riders who want a comfortable ride. It's rated for riders up to 460 lbs. Its 28"-wide frame and four 10" flat-free tires stay steady on sidewalks, parking lots, and uneven pavement. Front and rear suspension absorbs bumps and cracks. The 20" swivel captain's seat has flip-up armrests and three height positions, so getting on and off is easier. The seat turns a full 360° and locks in place. You also get a delta tiller you can drive with one hand, a full lighting package with turn signals, front and rear bumpers, and waterproof control buttons. Top speed is 6 mph, and two battery sizes are available so you can match the scooter to how far you travel.

Full-Size Footprint
At 28" wide, this is a full-size scooter. It's sized for stability and room, not for tight indoor spaces. Before you order, measure the doorways you'll use. Many interior doors are 30"–32", but older homes and bathrooms are often narrower. Without batteries it weighs 146.7 lbs, and 214.9 lbs with them, so it isn't meant to be lifted into a car trunk. Most owners keep it in a garage or at ground level, or move it with a vehicle lift or ramp.
Built for Comfort

Wheelchair Measuring Guide
Wheelchair Measurements:
- Hip Width:
Use this to figure seat width if it is the widest point. - Widest Point:
Measure the widest area across the lower extremities if different from the hip width. This may influence seat width or arm style. - Chest Width:
Measure the widest point of the thorax just below the armpit. This measurement may influence system width or back width. - Heel to Knee:
Use this for legrest extensions and seat height. - SRP to Knee (Seat Reference Point to Knee):
This will determine the seat depth. - Elbow to SRP (Elbow to Seat Reference Point):
Measure this width with the arm in a 90-degree angle at the elbow and the shoulder in a neutral position. - Shoulder Height:
This will determine the height and the style of the back panel or the start for a custom back. - Head Height:
This will help determine the proper headrest height.
