Description
The All-Terrain Manual Wheelchair
Rules were made to be broken! Push through the boundaries, access all terrains with the revolutionary, ultra-lightweight Trekinetic K2 manual wheelchair.
Take your manual Trekinetic K2 wheelchair to the beach or to the snow, take in the scenery along rain-forest trails, tackle bumps and uneven surfaces or simply enjoy outdoor activities with friends – the options are limitless!
3 Wheels Are Better Than 4
Did you know that a three-sided structure is stronger than a four-sided structure? Trekinetic’s 3-wheel design provides a superior force distribution of the user’s weight compared with a 4-wheel design, making it much stronger and more stable across uneven surfaces.
The All Terrain Wheelchair
Placing two big 24″ wheels at the front of the wheelchair allows the Trekinetic K2 to handle almost any terrain you throw at it be it off-road, on-road or around town.
Bumps, cracks and uneven surfaces are handled with ease.
The Trekinetic K2 is also suited to indoor use too. A 1-meter turning circle makes it very maneuverable around tighter spaces be it in the home, office or at the shops.
Ultra Lightweight
The multi-award winning Trekinetic K2 is a lightweight, all terrain manual wheelchair like no other.
Utilising cutting edge Formula 1 technology, the K2 was designed as an everyday manual chair that pushes the limits of what a wheelchair should be capable of.
Built in the UK from start to finish, this is one of the most advanced wheelchairs on the planet.
A Seat With A Difference
Conventional wheelchair seats force your backside into a square shape because of their right angle construction. This becomes a problem when you’re traveling downhill, your position in the seat changes and you could tip out of the chair.
Trekinetic have overcome this with the use of a patented nitrogen gas shock absorber that allows the seat to recline backwards or forwards depending on the angle of the surface.
The rear shock absorber also ensures a smooth ride every time by soaking up uncomfortable surfaces such as bumps, cracks, lumps and cobblestones.
Adjustable Front Wheels
Engineered for versatility, the patented Varicam system allows you to adjust the angle to widen the wheel base depending on the terrain.
For outdoor, a wider wheel base provides increased off-road stability. For indoor wheelchair use, a narrower wheel base is more practical.
Changing the angle of the wheels is quick and can be done by simply turning a bar located under the seat. 0-16 degrees in 10 seconds. Zero tools required.
Dynamic Braking System
When it comes to braking, the Trekinetic K2 has a unique dynamic braking system that allows you to slow, stop or even turn the chair without so much as touching the wheels.
It can also be used as a parking brake for when you want to get in or out of the chair.
Compact & Lightweight
The K2 was designed to fold down and fit into a small vehicle with minimal effort.
With a simple click of a button, the front wheels can be removed (each front wheel weighs 3.3kg). The rear castor folds down behind the seat.
Attendant Mode
The Trekinetic K2 has an attendant mode function that allows a carer to take full control of the wheelchair including brakes which are located on the rear handlebars.
Ask us about additional features for attendant operation. We also accommodate children with a special seat insert and raised footplate.
Little Kids Right Through To Big Kids
Little Kids Right Through To Big Kids
Trekinetic understand that wheelchair users come in all shapes and sizes – especially growing kids!
Instead of building a completely separate wheelchair, Trekinetic have made it possible for children to own a standard K2 manual or GTE powerchair with the use of a few clever additions.
The adjustable footrest and Hyperforma lining (padded seat) attach to the standard wheelchair model, allowing adjustments and tweaks to be made to accommodate children as young as 5 as they grow. Simply remove these additions when they’re no longer required.
The wheelchair is still super light, still not requiring a wheelchair accessible vehicle, and of course, still as effective off-road as on-road.
