Can I use NDIS or Support at Home funding for the ROVEE R1?
We can provide a quote for self-managed, plan-managed and NDIA-managed NDIS participants, as well as Support at Home (aged care) customers. Funding is subject to your NDIS plan or Support at Home approval. Visit tynor.com.au/pages/ndis to request a quote.
How far can I travel on one charge?
Up to approx. 20km (10Ah) or 40km (20Ah) under ideal conditions. Range is reduced by heavier loads, hills, rough surfaces and cold weather.
Which tyres should I choose?
Pneumatic rear tyres (STD) can offer a softer ride but need regular pressure checks. Airless tyres (PRO and ULTRA) are designed to be puncture resistant and low maintenance, which suits regular outdoor use on footpaths.
