Brave on a mule travelling about Mobile (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

manoeuvrable

'mobile' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'brave on a mule travelling' is the wordplay.
'travelling' indicates anagramming the letters.
'brave'+'on'+'a'+'mule'='braveonamule'
'braveonamule' anagrammed gives 'MANOEUVRABLE'.

'about' is the link.
