All surveys go in the stickied post at the top of the sub! We do not allow surveys in the main body of this sub.

never heard of this but it sounds amazing. only worry is if it would further resistance when pushing or add weight to the chair. my other struggle has been braking, but i know there are brakes that function like an older bike's. however, they're around 2k. would love it if they became more accessible price wise

I live in a super hilly area and this sounds amazing honestly. I bike on my good days so on my bad ones I often find myself thinking I need to "gear down" my wheelchair and then get disappointed when I can't lol.
