Made to fit this frame
Accessories that fit the Buzzaround EX.
Most of these hang on the accessory bracket behind the seat, which is why they fit the EX and the LX but not the folding CarryOn. Every one is a genuine Golden part.
Charge the U1 packs indoors while the scooter stays in the garage or the car.
Two things worth a phone call first. Golden's own manual says the rear accessory bracket is not fitted to every scooter at the factory, and the basket, walker holder, oxygen holder and cane holders all hang on it. The oxygen, walker and quad cane holders also come in a high back and a stadium seat version.
Send us a photo of the back of your scooter, or call 888-386-6233, and we will confirm the right part before anything ships.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
The GB148 is the 4-wheel version of the Buzzaround EX. Golden also makes a 3-wheel version (GB118) of the same model. The 4-wheel is more stable on uneven outdoor terrain, curb cuts, and gravel, while the 3-wheel has a tighter turning radius. If you're using it mostly outdoors or want maximum stability, choose this 4-wheel GB148.
-
The Buzzaround EX uses two U1 batteries that disconnect wirelessly, so there are no plugs or cables to fiddle with. You lift each pack straight out of the rear well and carry it inside to charge. Each pack weighs 24 lb. It's a major upgrade over older scooters where you had to disconnect cables every time.
-
Yes. The Buzzaround EX disassembles into 6 pieces in 4 quick steps, no tools required. The front section is the heaviest piece at 53 lb, so some people will want a second set of hands when loading it. The battery packs (24 lb each) and the seat (23 lb) lift out separately to keep each piece manageable.
-
It fits through standard doorways. At 22 inches wide, the GB148 passes through interior doorways with room to spare. Keep the 54 inch turning radius in mind though. This is a full size portable scooter, so tight hallway corners and small rooms take more maneuvering than a compact model. If most of your driving is indoors, a tighter turning scooter like the Travel Buggy HELIX is the easier fit.
-
The EX is built for road trips and car travel rather than flying. It uses two U1 sealed lead acid batteries and weighs 161 lb assembled, so it is not the right scooter for air travel. If you fly often, look at the Buzzaround CarryOn, which folds flat and uses a lithium ion battery that Golden markets as airline friendly.
