A lightweight paediatric tilt in space wheelchair for smaller users, designed to grow with the child. Fully adjustable and easy for one person to fold and lift, it's built for families who need a chair that keeps up with everyday life, not just the home.
Overview
Cub is a durable, foldable, all-terrain paediatric wheelchair with tilt and recline, designed to expand as the child grows. It combines the convenience of a stroller with the support of a wheelchair, with a split-unit aluminium frame that's lightweight and easy to lift, folding quickly for transport in a car boot or as airline baggage.
Everyday family life: a hip adjustment range of 19 to 36.5cm means Cub serves small children through to early teens, reducing how often the chair needs replacing as the child grows.
Adventures out and about: an optional All Terrain Accessory installs without tools, so families can take Cub over rough ground, trails and parks, not just indoors.
Conditions we see most often include cerebral palsy, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, developmental delay affecting mobility, genetic conditions affecting postural control, and acquired brain injury. This list isn't exhaustive, get in touch if yours isn't listed.
