Quickie Nitrum Rigid Manual Wheelchair

Instead of several welded parts, we use a reinforced and patented caster mechanism in a single hollow-forged component. The fewest possible elements and no moving parts give you amazing driving performance. Ultra-lightweight yet strong and durable without compromising adjustability.

Caster position is optimized for handling, turning, and maximized propulsion efficiency. Casters may be positioned narrower for more maneuverability or wider for greater stability.

We've designed a better wheel lock in terms of function, strength, and even weight.

• • Redesigned housing controls play and improves durability
• • Enhanced wheel lock engagement
• • Transfer-friendly design
• • Available as direct mount, reducing weight an additional 6 ounces.

The QUICKIE Nitrum uses a specially processed 7020-series aerospace aluminum. Together with the new hollow forged caster link tubes, we minimize the total weight of the wheelchair. Therefore the open frame is easier to handle and transport in cars or other vehicles.

The Freestyle Back is all about freedom of movement. By providing a 360° range of upper body motion, you can freely twist and turn without catching your backrest posts.

Breathable fabric with block-and-tackle tension adjustment is easy to tighten, and its double-loop mechanisms will remain secure.

The forged aluminium backrest bracket and locking mechanism are rigid and solid with virtually no play. Angle-adjustment and folding are separate mechanisms. Easy to adjust.

The standard release-bar provides a simple, quick-release folding mechanism. Just pull the bar upwards to un-lock and fold. Incredibly robust, it won’t loosen over time and can double-lock with sideguards and a low-profile cushion still on your wheelchair.
