The Motion Composites Helio A7 is a manual folding wheelchair with a 7005 T6 aluminum alloy frame. The frame is a rigid, one-piece unibody design. Most folding chairs use a two-piece frame, which adds weight and calls for more maintenance. The 7000 series aluminum makes the frame more rigid, which supports push efficiency.
A symmetrical hydroformed cross brace reduces torsion and distributes energy better through the frame. A forged vertical axle plate allows precise rear wheel adjustment, offers multiple center of gravity settings, and adds lateral stability. The Ultrarigid folding system uses high-precision tolerances and oversized pivot axles. An Evolve Caster Housing is embedded inside the frame for durability and easy, precise adjustment.
Seat-to-floor height adjusts in 1/4 inch increments, from 12" to 20.5". Motion Composites Newton armrests, casters, rear wheels, and handrim accessories are available for this chair.
