Francis our product specialist had the pleasure of providing Michelle with our new all terrain wheelchair package. The package includes the Excel G Explorer wheelchair, and is supplied with a Freewheel, folding chair adaptor and compatible shims.
The family purchased the kit as they wanted to propel over terrain that their normal wheelchair found problematic. In the amazing weather Michelle and her family were able to visit the Mussenden Temple, travelling over grass, muck and stone lanes with ease.
The wheelchair package is perfect for those looking to travel over rougher terrain
It can fit into almost any car boot making long drives no hassle. The backrest angle has also been adjusted to give the user a more natural seating position, providing perfect precision lumbar support. To make the attendant experience more comfortable the chair has height adjustable handles, this makes pushing easier for the attendant. The chair not only looks great but offers great control.
The large wheel provides less resistance and allows your chair to roll over almost any surface with ease. It weights under 2.3kg, making it extremely lightweight and transportable.
The frontwheel attaches to the footrest of your wheelchair. Once attached, the FreeWheel lifts the front castors off the ground allowing you to tackle terrain that would normally be impossible for small castors.
If you want to fit the Freewheel to a different folding frame wheelchair, you will need to order the Freewheel folding wheelchair adaptor. Freewheel fits to a wide range of rigid frame chair footrests with Fixed single piece footrests without need for additional parts. Freewheel will not work with rigid frame chairs with flip up one-piece footplates. Standard wheelchair frames have a distance of 120 mm/ 4.75″ from the top of the footrest to the floor. If your chair has a greater distance, a custom frame is required A custom frame is required if any of the following conditions apply
