A:Answer Hi Janice! Thanks for reaching out to us here at Jetson! Based off of the information you've provided, we believe that the Ryder scooter would be the perfect e-scooter for you! It has a very large foot base, so if you want to ride while standing, you can! However, if you're wanting to sit while riding, the Ryder also provides you with that option! This will ensure less wear on your knees, but also allow you the convenience of getting around with ease! We hope this helps.
