The rigid frame wheelchair communicates a positive, energetic zest for life and offers the young user maximum stability and adaptability. The curved front frame with its wide arms combines vigorous dynamics with therapeutically expedient elements and visible robustness. The numerous adjustment options are harmoniously integrated to create a playful overall picture. The device was developed on the basis of infantile body and growth data to adapt to children’s needs in the best possible way. Requirements of the therapists have been taken into account as well as the wishes of parents and accompanying persons. Details such as the brake lever integrated in the side frame and the wide footboard demonstrate that the functionality of the wheelchair is particularly suitable for children.
