The weight is another aspect to take into consideration when choosing an all-terrain chair. The majority of all-terrain chairs are heavier than a standard model, which can make it difficult to move and propel the chair. This is why it's crucial to choose the right chair with a lightweight but sturdy frame.

It also has a hand-brake system that works like a bicycle's brake system to give the user more stopping power. Seat Unlike conventional wheelchairs that have small castors on the front that are often stuck on uneven surfaces or simply don't have enough grip to get them over, all terrain wheelchairs have large pneumatic bike tyres on the rear that allow for a greater amount of room for adventure and make it easier to maneuver through grass or rocky/muddy areas.

To turn, you simply twist the wrist with your dominant hand (the turning joystick is attached to either lever) which rotates the rear wheel (or the eTrike incorporates an electric motor to drive the front). If you wish to stop the chair, you push back on the brake levers similar to the brake levers on a bicycle, and then apply the brakes. An all-terrain wheelchair is the perfect solution for those who lead an active and adventurous lifestyle but have mobility issues.

A seat slope that is too steep can cause the user's hips flexing to an uncomfortable degree or being forced into an incorrect pelvic tilt. It is important to assess the front seat-to-floor height by sitting in the chair and making sure that the tip of the middle finger lines up with the axle, which indicates the correct alignment and efficient self-propulsion. Frame All terrain wheelchairs can be used on various surfaces, such as sand or mud. These chairs have large wheels at the front that can glide over uneven surfaces without causing discomfort or damage to the occupant. They are designed to be used in a range of environments, such as hiking trails, beaches or even pools.

All terrain wheelchairs were created to help people with disabilities rediscover the joy of adventure. This is accomplished by allowing them to be part of their family and friends on outdoor activities, and in doing so reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation. Conventional wheelchairs face many difficulties when they attempt to travel on uneven or unstable terrain particularly when trying to climb steep slopes. For instance, if a wheelchair is stuck in a depression or beneath an obstruction on the way the user may not be able to free themselves. A wheelchair with small wheels can be a challenge. They are often stuck on kerbs and cobbles. This can be very difficult for the person who uses it. In some instances the occupant may be forced to stop or even get themselves out of the chair. Trekinetic's all-terrain chairs feature a unique dual tube frame that combines two tubes of strength into one. This creates an element that is strong and rigid which makes the chair more efficient in energy transfer. The occupant is able to move forward using the levers on both sides of the chair. This is similar to how bicycles are ridden. To stop, the person simply uses brakes (these can be altered to operate with only one hand, similar to the eTrike model). Our all terrain wheelchairs are also lightweight which makes them easy to move and push. They can also fold easily and fit into a majority of vehicles, making them ideal for those who travel. Tyres Wheelchair tyres are crucial to the performance of any wheelchair and must always be installed correctly. Under or over-inflated tyres will make the wheelchair less stable, which can affect handling corners, stopping, and turning. A properly filled tire distributes the weight of the driver across the tread pattern to provide maximum stability and agility. A low tyre pressure can cause premature wear, particularly on the sides of the tread or in the center of the tyre. Ideally, the tyres should be checked on a regular basis and, if needed, topped up with air. The tyre's pressure is typically written on the tyre, so the process of checking it can be accomplished easily. A chair with pneumatic tyres is more suitable for off-road usage than an ordinary electric or manual chair. Pneumatic tyres are made to withstand bumps and jolts from rough outdoor terrain such as grass and mud. They usually have more tread than the tyres on wheelchairs intended for indoor use. This helps to grip surfaces like dropped kerbs. Pneumatic tyres also weigh less than tyres made of solid rubber, which will allow wheelchairs to be handled more easily by a caregiver. A reputable wheelchair shop will provide advice on the best tyres for your needs and the type of wheelchair you're using. A wheelchair with foam-filled tires is another option. They offer a good balance between comfort and endurance. They are puncture resistant and offer some shock absorption compared to pneumatic tyres but they are not as good as pneumatic tyres when is dealing with the rough terrain outdoors.

A sturdy frame and mountain bike style pneumatic tires will enable the user of the wheelchair to go on more excursions to the countryside or to zoos, tourist attractions or even to visit family and friends. The tyres are large and quick-release to handle even the most rugged terrain. However, the wheelchair can be compacted to be carried in the car's trunk or back seat.
