Jon's Juvo big day out at the Emirates Stadium
We invited Jon Bolding, captain of the England powerchair football team, to enjoy a day out test driving Ottobock’s Juvo B5 mid-wheel-drive powerchair.
Front Wheel Drive (FWD)
This drive type isn't just compact but also means you can easily overcome obstacles such as curbs thanks to its large drive wheels. With its relatively small turning radius and the ability to drive close to objects (such as furniture), the front-wheel drive Juvo is manoeuvrable and ideal for indoor use.
Why front wheel drive?
Compact design with very small turning radius
Drives up close to objects
Good overview in front of the wheelchair
Ideal for indoor and outdoor use and easily navigates curbs
User comfort with good leg positioning
Postural stability
Mid Wheel Drive (MWD)
The all-rounder among the drive types. The mid-wheel drive offers incomparable driving characteristics for all fields of application. The tight turning radius is suitable for indoor use while also providing added stability and safety outdoors. The single-wheel suspension and torsion drive system form the basis for this intuitive drive type and thanks to the direct pivot point, safe handling is possible even with more complex forms of input.
Why mid-wheel drive?
Intuitive movement and driving thanks to central pivot point
Maximum stability against tipping and it is easy to navigate curbs
Optimum weight distribution
Ideal for indoor and outdoor use
User comfort with postural stability
Rear Wheel Drive (RWD)
The rear-wheel drive sets the standard for power wheelchairs due to its versatility. In addition to offering numerous variations in terms of speed and features, the design also permits optimal distribution of forces on various driving surfaces. Thanks to its directional stability, the Juvo with rear-wheel drive is a great choice if you want mobility indoors and also plan to go on regular outdoor excursions.
Why rear-wheel drive?
Excellent directional stability, even at higher speeds
Flexible centre of gravity distribution
Good drive wheel traction when driving up and down slopes
Ideal for indoor and outdoor use
Easily navigate curbs
User comfort with postural stability
