This system is killer! I had avoided brakes altogether on my chair like the plague for years, after smashing my thumbs repeatedly on the old school “push-to-lock” versions. And the “scissor” locks are just awkward to get to.
For over 15 years now, I have been using the Supracor Stimulite line of cushions on my wheelchairs and I figured it was high time I let you all in on my little secret weapon..
The newest thing to come from the great folks at Supracor is the Stimulite Tension Adjustable Back. Using the same great honeycomb cushion material already in their cushions and heaps of other products, they can now take care even of more of your seating needs.
These tires are the most versatile I have ever seen! They go great through the snow, grass, dirt, gravel, or any other nasty thing you can throw at them. Snow doesn't even stick to them, one tap and it all falls right off!
The Kenda Koncept (K191) is the company's answer to a hi-performance tire for sports and everyday use, the "Iron CAP" construction has a list of protective material under the tread that runs from bead to bead adding strength to these tires. The Iron CAP tires claim to be 90% more puncture resistant and I sure put them to the test.
Recently, I was sent a pair of the new Kenda Konstrictor tires for review. These tires rock, hands down. The dual compound wears really well. The smooth crown gives you a great rolling surface on hard surfaces like wood, tile and concrete and even helps reduce vibration into your body. The slight amount of tread towards the outer edges of the tire gives you just a bit of added help in those dirt and grassy areas that we all get ourselves in.
If you are looking for a great sports wheel, look no further than the Spinergy SLX (Sport Light Extreme). I have had a few pair of the 18-spoke version and I absolutely love these wheels. With the choice of 18- and 24-spoke wheels you can choose just how rugged you want to go with minimal weight difference.
Over the last many years, I have gone through a few pairs of Spinergy wheels and loved each and every one of them. I have a new favorite now in the 12-Spoke LX (Light Extreme). It has a thinner hub and is quite a bit lighter than SLX (Sport Light Extreme), yet is still just as long lasting and rugged as the SLX.
I have had my Spinergy SLX (Sport Light Extreme) Wheels with the optional R10 hub and beefy 5/8" axles for a little over a year now and I cannot say enough good about them.
