Product Features

Lightweight for greater freedom of movement

HELIO KIDS is one of the lightest folding manual wheelchairs for kids on the market. We use high-performance carbon fiber for peak lightness and strength. From the flip-back footrests to the forged aluminum axle plates, each component and accessory was chosen 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.

Saves their energy do they can go further

A highly agile wheelchair is an undeniable plus, especially for kids. We only included what was essential for even more efficient propulsion. The molded cross brace, oval tubing and pivot axles work together while the unique folding system maximizes the frames stability, saving your child energy on a daily basis.

Strong enough to keep up with your child

T700 carbon fiber is an ideal material 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, which makes it much stronger. Kids can be tough on their wheelchairs, but this chair was made to last, serving your child well for many years to come.

Kids can be tough on their wheelchairs! Helio Kids can take the punishment because it's manufactured using cutting edge carbon fibre technology that provides unrivalled strength and durability, yet it is incredibly lightweight. With its superior fatigue resistance, extreme temperature tolerances and exceptional durability, carbon fibre is one of the strongest yet lightest materials on earth. Thats why its the ultimate wheelchair material, making the Helio Kids the lightest folding paediatric wheelchair anywhere. Everybody benefits from an easier to propel kids wheelchair. The Symmetrical Molded Crossbrace, oval shaped tubes and oversized pivot axles work in concert, while the unique Ultrarigid Folding System maximizes frame rigidity and responsiveness. The Helio Kids is made to grow right along with them. The adjustable back means the seat depth can be increased up to 3 (7.6 cm) in infinite increments for greater precision. Plus, you can adjust and modify the footplate height in seconds. Even an ultra-lightweight carbon fibre frame can get weighed down without the right components. Thats why every single accessory, bolt and bracket of the Helio Kids is designed with weight reduction in mind. Lightness is a priority, from the forged aluminium axle plate to the functional swing-in, swing-out front rigging.
