If you are in a wheelchair and want to have more freedom, and enjoy the outdoors, hiking trails, or easily glide down bumpy sidewalks and curbs, then the FreeWheel Wheelchair Attac hment is the answer. This revolutionary adaptive attachment is durable and lightweight (2.3kg) and quickly clamps to the footrest of a rigid-frame wheelchair. The FreeWheel allows you to push over surfaces that would typically be impossible. Folding wheelchair adaptor - The Adaptor connects the two sides and adds strength and rigidity to support the use of the FreeWheel. Once the Adaptor is set up for a wheelchair, it only takes seconds to remove, by unscrewing two knobs on each side. Frame/fork - Made from strong, aircraft quality aluminum. The unique patented design adds strength so that there are no sharp edges to catch on anyone or anything. Clamp - The precisely engineered vise like connection allows users confidentially attach FreeWheel for a secure fit and excellent handling. Wheel - The large front wheel has less resistance than small casters and makes it easier to roll on any surface. Detent - This mechanism keeps the front wheel straight to improve stability and handling. By applying slight pressure, it will release, allowing user quickly and easily turn in any direction. Restrictions- The FreeWheel works on solid rigid-frame footrests that are a maximum of 4¾" off the ground. If the footrest is "angled" (footrest higher in front than in the back) it must be angled no more than 12° for the FreeWheel to clamp securely to users chair. Show more
