Journey So Lite C2 Ultra Lightweight Wheelchair
When choosing a wheelchair, its good to weigh your options . . . Introducing the So Lite Wheelchairjust 16.5 poundsSince their inception in the 17th century, self-propelled wheelchairs have frequently faced criticism for their weight, bulkiness, and lack of comfort, which complicates transportation and maneuverability in confined areas. Nevertheless, they have been essential for enhancing mobility for individuals who depend on them. This context makes the introduction of the groundbreaking So Lite Wheelchair particularly significant. It addresses the persistent challenges linked to conventional wheelchair designs, significantly improving safety, comfort, and user convenience. With a weight of merely 16½ pounds when the quick-release back wheels are detached, this wheelchair is remarkably lightweight and easy to manage.
The So Lite Wheelchair stands out with its sleek design and thinner wheels, making it more streamlined than its predecessors. Constructed from military-grade magnesium, it combines strength with a lightweight frame, offering the perfect balance between a transport chair and a robust wheelchair. This reduced weight allows for improved maneuverability and control, whether the user is navigating independently or being assisted. Seniors and their caregivers can now enjoy a wheelchair that is both feature-rich and easy to transport, merging functionality with convenience after centuries of compromise.
Safety features of the So Lite Wheelchair include a dual braking system with manual locks, front brakes to prevent unwanted movement, and anti-tipping rear wheels for enhanced stability. Users will appreciate the flat-free tires that eliminate maintenance concerns. One first-time user expressed their delight, stating, I could easily do the smoothest 360° turn, right in place. Additionally, the chair is designed for convenience and comfort, featuring flip-back arms for easy access to tables and desks, as well as removable padded cushions for quick cleaning

Measure this width with the arm in a 90 degree angle at the elbow and the shoulder in a neutral position. - Shoulder Height:
