B5 B6

Front-wheel drive: This drive type, in addition to its compactness, provides good climbing ability over obstacles such as curbs. With a small turning radius and the ability to approach objects closely, the front-wheel-drive B5/B6 demonstrates agility and is well-suited for indoor use. Transfers are made easy with the great access zone in front of the chair. Rear-wheel drive: Those who choose rear-wheel drive have outdoor excursions in mind, in addition to maneuvering indoors. Thanks to its directional stability and good performance at higher speeds, the rear-wheel-drive B5/B6 is the perfect partner for outdoor use. The design of the rear-wheel-drive B5/B6 allows the best chair overview. Mid-wheel drive: This agile all-around talent among drive systems offers unparalleled driving characteristics for all applications. The tight turning radius is well-suited for indoor spaces. Individual wheel suspension and the Torsion-Drive system form the basis for this intuitive drive type.

Alternative input devices are available when standard joysticks do not offer optimal use. For example, our mini-joystick can be operated with minimal effort and can be specifically adjusted to your needs and abilities. Your choice of input device may be mounted on a powered swing away arm, to be used as chin, lip or dental control. But that's not all. We are happy to offer you more additional input options to drive your wheelchair, adjust seating features and control your environment. Speak to your rehab specialist about a trial to find the suitable solution for your personal requirements.

During downhill rides and strong braking activities, such as when turning off the control, the anti-tipper ensure that the wheelchair does not tip forward. To maintain the climbing ability of your front-wheel-drive, for example, when overcoming curbs, the flexible anti-tip castors automatically fold back when they encounter an obstacle.
