Welcome to a new era in mobility scooters, brought to you by Velobike. We’re thrilled to introduce the latest addition to our product line – solid tyres for Veleco mobility scooters and any similar scooters. Say goodbye to punctures, inconsistent air pressure, and frequent maintenance. Get ready for a revolution in your riding experience!
What is solid tyre?
Solid tyres, also known as puncture-proof, flat-free or airless tyres, are a game-changer for mobility scooters. Instead of being filled with air, solid tyres are made from a dense, durable material that is resistant to punctures and flats. They are constructed using layers of rubber wrapped around a metal frame or wheel structure, custom-made to fit a specific vehicle.
This means no more worrying about getting a flat tyre while you’re out and about. Solid tyres offer enhanced reliability and peace of mind. They are an excellent choice for those seeking a low-maintenance and hassle-free solution for their mobility scooter. Mobility scooter users prize airless tyres for their:
- exceptional stability,
- cost-effectiveness,
- resistance to punctures,
- low maintenance requirements, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications under challenging conditions.

Ordering a scooter with solid tyres is incredibly simple and intuitive. All it takes is one click to select this option when choosing the scooter model.

Cost-effectiveness of solid tyres – your long-term savings
Upfront cost vs. long-term value
While the initial cost of solid tyres might be higher than traditional tyres, the long-term savings are undeniable. The extended lifespan and reduced maintenance needs of airless tyres mean you spend less over time on your scooter’s upkeep. Sometimes just a single visit in the vulcaniser may cost you the amount of the whole puncture-proof tyres set.
Reduced need for replacements
The durability of solid tyres diminishes the frequency of replacements. This not only saves your money but also the time and hassle involved in changing tyres, making them a cost-effective choice for a rider.
Which models are solid tyres compatible with?
Veleco airless tyres are designed to be compatible with a wide range of mobility scooter models, not only the ones in our range. They are compatible with Veleco vehicles or any similar mobility scooters. and When it comes to Veleco scooters, the puncture-proof tyres are compatible with every mobility scooter on our offer, i. e. with FASTER, except ZT16 as well as mopeds and electric-powered wheelchair COSMO.
Are solid tyres the future?
With Veleco puncture-proof tyres, you’re not just choosing convenience; you’re embracing the pinnacle of modern mobility technology. Whether you’re riding through city streets, country roads, or rugged terrains, these tyres offer a dependable and exhilarating experience.
I would like to fit airless tyres to my Van os Galaxy 2 Mobility Scooter. I am a bit of an adventurer and like to travel off road on gravel tracks. There are plenty in my area of East Dorset, especially the Castleman Trailway.
Are you able to advise me of the cost please.
Hi, thank you for reaching out to us regarding this matter, I completely understand what you’re looking for. Generally, we can recommend the sets we have in our offer, I’ll attach the links ; ) However, we cannot guarantee that such a set (because they are specifically designed for each scooter produced by Veleco) – will fit a scooter from a completely different manufacturer. Here – we don’t want to mislead you, it seems to me that it would be best to check the specifications of the current tires and possibly contact VELECO directly, I’ll also provide their @ for direct contact ([email protected])
