Featherlight Freedom, Effortless Mobility
For too long, the idea of a “strong wheelchair” also meant a “heavy wheelchair.” This can create a barrier to true independence, making it a struggle to lift the chair into a car or carry it up a step. The Drive Superlight Aluminium Wheelchair is designed to shatter that barrier. By using a robust, modern aluminium frame, we’ve created a wheelchair that is both incredibly strong and exceptionally lightweight. It’s the perfect solution for active, independent users who need a reliable chair that won’t weigh them down.
So Light, You’ll Barely Notice
At the heart of this wheelchair is its ultra-lightweight frame, bringing the total weight to a mere 15kg (33lb). This isn’t just a number on a page; it’s a feature that transforms daily life. It means less strain when lifting the chair into the boot of a car for a day out. It means easier storage at home and less effort for family members or carers who may be assisting. This remarkable lightness removes a significant hurdle, empowering more spontaneous and carefree travel.
Designed for Your Daily Life
This wheelchair is crafted with practical, real-world use in mind. The clever desk-style armrests are shorter at the front, allowing you to position yourself closer to tables and desks at home or work, promoting inclusion and making daily tasks easier. For safer and more convenient transfers, the footrests quickly swing away and detach completely, clearing the space you need to move with confidence. The padded nylon upholstery provides lasting comfort and is simple to wipe clean, ensuring the chair is as easy to maintain as it is to use.
Ready to Go When You Are
True independence means being ready for anything. The Superlight wheelchair folds into a compact form with a simple, intuitive mechanism. For moments when you need to make it even smaller and lighter, the large 24″ self-propel wheels can be removed in seconds with their quick-release functionality. This combination of a lightweight frame, folding action, and removable wheels makes this one of the most convenient and travel-ready wheelchairs on the market.
