Wheelchairs

When we sat down to create the Move, we began with our usual accept-no-compromises goal — to build the lightest, most efficient wheelchair in its category. Period. That’s how we created the Move. It offers the design ingenuity you’d expect from Motion Composites. And it adds something new — accessibility. We’re now proud to bring Motion Composites superb quality to the standard wheelchair category.

When it comes to lightweight performance, Motion Composites is unrivaled. Take the Helio A7, for example. Our engineers’ cutting edge design, paired with the outstanding properties of 7000 series aluminum, have produced a standard configuration Helio A7 that weighs up to 5 lbs. (2.2 kg) less than any other wheelchair in its category. That’s top of the class.

Look closely. From frame to materials to componentry, every detail of the Helio C2 is optimized to help you go farther. We’ve ratcheted up performance and brought down weight so you actually expend less energy to propel the Helio C2. Result? You gain in mobility while reducing the risk
 of chronic shoulder and joint injuries.

The Helio C2’s innovative engineering begins with its symmetrical crossbrace and one-piece side frame. This reduces weight and distributes forces equally throughout the frame for superior energy transfer and propulsion efficiency. And, with a vertical axle plate to shave even more grams and decrease wheel flex, you gain further dividends in energy efficiency.

So whether you’re pushing it forward or lifting it into a car trunk, the Helio C2 means more freedom. Like we said, it’s what a folding wheelchair should be.
