Mountain Scooter fun bike

The GAMS is a portable Mountain Scooter intended to be used in the mountains.

For all those hikers/climbers who do not like to walk downhill it is a comfortable but sporty descending aid.
And those who already use a climbing aid to get up the mountain can simply enjoy the fun of 'GAMSing'.

Mountain Scooter Backpack

The carrier is an adapted backpack that allows you to stow the Mountain Scooter GAMS quickly, completely and safely, to take it easily up the mountain.

The second feature of the Mountain Scooter Carrier – the integrated back protector – hopefully is not brought into action all too often.
Additionally, the combined system of GAMS and carrier can serve as a stable and attractive seat.

The pack has been developed over a period of 2 years and has been implemented with the support of the Munich-based company EVOC. The special feature of EVOC is the integrated but removable back protector. The two-part construction of the carrier allows the use without the backpack part as well.  In case you don’t want to take any belongings you can just leave the „backpack-part“ at home.
 
All those GAMS Mountain Scooter users who prefer to have storage space simply fix it on top of the folded package. The individual pockets are accessible at all times and the net is protecting the GAMS and also its user against getting caught by tree branches or the chairlift.

Due to the system of various tension bands the weight of the GAMS can be arranged evenly and the center of gravity is close to the body. That is the reason why the total weight of the GAMS is perceived as minimal.
