GRIT Freedom Chair

The GRIT Freedom chair is an innovative off-road option for active wheelchair users. We think it’s pretty cool because it’s like a mountain bike crossed with a wheelchair and suitable for a range of different terrains and activities.

The patented lever system is designed to maximise energy expenditure so that you can go further and for longer.

Description

Features

  • Four different models available – 3.0 being an all-rounder and GRIT’s most popular option; the Pro model which uses premium components and is for those who take both their sporting accolades and their aesthetics seriously; the Spartan model, designed to withstand the most robust conditions; and the Junior model which is designed for kids and features an additional push-bar for when they need a little bit of extra help
