Progeo Ego Folding Wheelchair (PR17930)

https://ilcaustralia.org.au/products/17930

A lightweight folding "hybrid frame" wheelchair designed for active users. It is designed with a special strap that can be pulled to fold the chair closed, after which the backrest can also be folded to further reduce the transport size. The wheelchair frame is made of elliptical aluminium alloy or carbon fibre tubing. It is available in a number of seat sizes and can be customised with a large number of options and accessories. A special custom-welded version can also be ordered with less adjustability but also less weight.
