  • “Not A Wheelchair” Off-Road Electric Wheelchair

    Posted by Community Member on March 4, 2021 at 11:00 am

    I watched a pretty awesome video this morning about a YouTuber trying out a wheelchair that was designed to go off-roading. As a manual wheelchair user, he gives a full review and takes it for a spin.

    Given my very limited mobility, this isn’t something I’d be able to use. But what a cool concept. It seems to create a lot of freedom for those able to use it. What do you think?

    Love it! I have the strength and agility to use it and have watched the journey as Zach had perfected it.

    That said, I have no place to store it.

    I do see this as a great tool to enable someone who needs to use a wheelchair full time to be outside, perhaps on a less accessible trail with nature around.

    Although there are other offroad chairs, this is much faster than most and is also much lighter.
