Lightweight For Greater Freedom of Movement
Motion Composites HELIO KIDS Carbon Fibre lightweight wheelchair is one of the lightest folding manual wheelchairs for kids on the market. Uniquely a Carbon Fibre wheelchair certified for power add-on devices, including the Benoit Systemes Light Drive Mini². Designed to use high-performance carbon fibre for peak lightness and strength. Each component and accessory was chosen from the flip-back footrests to the forged aluminium axle plates with weight reduction in mind.
A Chair That Grows With Your Child
Kids grow fast, and HELIO Kids is designed to grow right along with them. It only takes a few seconds to increase the seat depth by up to 3 inches (7.6 cm) in infinite increments for greater precision. The footplate height can be adjusted just as quickly and easily so your child is always comfortable.
It Saves Children’s Energy So Their Wheelchairs Can Go Further
A highly agile wheelchair is a definite plus, especially for kids. We only included what was essential for even more efficient propulsion. The moulded cross brace, oval tubing and pivot axles work together while the unique folding system maximises the frame’s stability, saving your child energy daily.
Strong and Robust Enough to Keep Up With Your Child
T700 carbon fibre is ideal for making high-performance wheelchairs due to its incredible sturdiness and stability. Unlike standard two-part frames, HELIO KIDS has a rigid unibody (single) frame, making it much stronger. Kids can be tough on their wheelchairs, but this robust chair was made to last, serving your child well for many years to come.
“Emerson loves her pink chair and how light it is for her and easy to manoeuver. It has many customisation options, and it’s built to accommodate growth. We also love the fact that it is foldable and that the wheels are removeable.”
