The StrongBack technology provides an evolution of the standard wheelchair design. An ergonomic lumbar support is integrated into the frame of the wheelchair, improving the seat angle & offering a curved supportive backrest. The seat angle aligns the pelvis for proper ergonomic posture, prevents slipping & slouching forwards. The seating surface moulds around the body so that circulation is improved & pressure reduced without the need for bulky & expensive posture support cushions.The wheelchair has also been designed with the carer in mind, folding in a matter of seconds & requiring minimal storage space. The backrest folds completely flat against the frame, as do the footrests which easily fold & lock out of harm's way, no need to detach as per traditional wheelchair design. The push handles are spaced wide apart to offer the correct stance for maximum control when pushing. Puncture proof tyres & attendant controlled brakes finish off the impressive specification. Lightweight aluminium construction at just 11.3kgs means it can be lifted & transported without back or muscle strain.The Twin Wheel Duo Powerpack attaches to the StongBack Wheelchair literally in seconds. Once fitted you will never need to push the chair again. Simply walk behind with your thumb on the control and let the Powerpack do all the work for you. The Duo model was introduced for those who require that extra traction, if you live in a hilly area or need to tackle slippery slopes or gravel driveways, this is the model for you! The Duo is fitted as standard with a reverse function, operated by a simple switch on the hand control, allowing that extra versatility and functionality.The Duo is the most technically advanced carer controlled wheelchair power pack on the market. With speeds up to 4mph with up to 18 stone on board and a range of up to 10 miles per charge, there is more than enough capacity for most days out.Also available with a powerpack.
