Carbo Life handrims, available across our Küschall active wheelchair range, are the next generation in handrims. Ergonomically engineered to represent the natural autonomy of the hand, ensures optimal transition of power from hand to wheel. The curve handrims provide more control and energy efficiency for you to propel your wheelchair further for longer, leaving more energy to focus on the important activities in your life.  There are two options to choose from:



Curve L

Best suited for individuals with complete hand function. The innovative profile in black anodised aluminium provides a controlled, low-effort grip that helps stabilise the wrist.  The anodised low-friction surface at the sides prevents heat build-up when braking.

Compared to conventional handrims, with CarboLife, hand muscles tire less helping to reduce cramps, relieve pain due to carpal tunnel syndrome creating a relaxed and lasting drive experience. 



Key features and benefits include:

 

• 24” black anodised coating
• 6-tab mounting
• 24mm wide x 31mm high
• Reduces fatigue
• Reduces cramps
• Relaxed and lasting ride experience

GEKKO handrim

The Gekko handrim offers the same great benefits of the Curve L, but in addition it features an integrated rubber strip to provide extra grip and comfort. These are suited for individuals with complete hand function or limited hand strength.



The ergonomics and outstanding grip properties along with its low weight make the GEKKO a unique, revolutionary handrim.



It has a robust replaceable rubber strip, which is fully integrated into the profile, to further enhance the exceptional handling quality of the handrim creating unrivalled drive comfort. In addition, the anodised low-friction surface at the sides prevents heat build-up when braking.
