Investing in an Economy Wheelchair comes with various challenges. Quality, comfort, reliability, servicing, and availability of spares, all play a vital role…. but affordability has prevented access to these vital factors for so many, until now.
Introducing the RB1 Economy Wheelchair!
The RB1 Wheelchair provides an excellently balanced solution to your wheelchair purchasing woes. Made in South Africa, from mild steel, according to the strictest quality standards, ensuring strength, quality, and durability, all whilst keeping the comfort levels up, and the costs low.
Available in a 45cm width and standard, fixed maintenance-free mag wheels with solid tires. The RB1 also has removable armrests and footrests for your convenience. Designed for indoor use.
Easy Folding Economy Wheelchair
The RB1 Economy Wheelchair can be folded easily by lifting the seat upwards. The chair becomes compact for easy loading into a vehicle or for storing away.
Large Front Castors
The RB1 has two 8″ x 1″ castors. The larger size castor wheel allows the user to navigate uneven surfaces easily, without too much extra rolling resistance.
Quick-Release, Height Adjustable Footrests
The footrests on the RB1 Economy Wheelchair can be removed easily by pressing the black clip on the footrest towards the middle of the chair. This clip releases the footrest and it can be swang outwards and removed. To put the footrest back on, place it onto the two metal guides and swing it towards the middle of the chair until you hear a ‘click’.
Comfortable Sports Armrests
The armrests have soft foam tubes on their surface. This provides a more streamlined design and comfort, whilst allowing the user better access to the rear wheels, without the armrest pads getting in the way. These armrests are easily removable by pressing in a click and pulling them upwards.
