A WHEELCHAIR THAT FITS YOU NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND For people who use a wheelchair every day, fit isn't a luxury it's the difference between feeling well at the end of an afternoon and feeling sore. The Lynx K5 was designed around this idea. The seat depth adjusts between 16 and 18 inches so the cushion supports your full thigh without pressuring the back of your knees, the seat-to-floor height adjusts between 17. 5 and 19. 5 inches so foot-propellers can plant their feet flat, and taller users get more knee clearance, the arm height adjusts from 28. 5 to 31. 1 inches so your elbows rest at the right angle, and the back height adjusts so your shoulder blades clear the backrest, or are supported by it your choice. Even the caregiver push handles adjust, between 35. 5 and 37. 5 inches, so whoever is pushing isn't hunched over. At 28. 5 lbs, this chair is among the lightest in the K0005 ultralight class light enough to lift solo into a sedan, easy enough to push for an active daily user. The flip-back arms are an upgrade over standard detachable arms they fold straight back without needing to come off, which makes table access and side transfers faster and cleaner. A great fit for People who use a wheelchair every day, not just occasionally when the chair has to fit you precisely, not just generally Self-propellers who want a chair that's actually light enough to push for hours without the chair itself doing the tiring Insurance plans that approve the K0005 ultra-lightweight wheelchair classification this is the right product code Users with a hip width of 14"16" and an inseam that doesn't quite match a standard 16" seat depth Caregivers of different heights sharing the chair the adjustable handle height saves their backs Anyone whose previous wheelchair felt too snug, too tall, too short, or just slightly off most often that's a fit problem, not a personal one KEY FEATURES What you'll noticeacross a day of use Feature What it really means for you Six adjustments built in Seat depth, seat height, arm height, back height, handle height, axle position You can dial the chair in to fit your body and re-dial it as your needs change over the years. Most wheelchairs offer maybe one or two adjustments. The Lynx offers six. Just 28. 5 lbs Aluminum K0005 ultra-lightweight frame Among the lightest manual wheelchairs available. Self-propellers feel the difference immediately less of your energy goes into moving the chair itself, more goes into moving you. Adjustable seat depth 16"18" Rare in this category If your thighs are long, set the seat to 18" your knees aren't pressed against the front edge. If shorter, set it to 16" less material in the way. Almost no chairs in this price range offer this. Dual-axle seat height 17. 5"19. 5" Hemi-level or standard Drop the seat to 17. 5" for foot-propelling feet flat on the floor or raise it to 19. 5" for taller users and more knee clearance. The dual axle makes the switch a quick tool-free job. Flip-back, height-adjustable desk arms Padded, with custom-fit elbow height Flip-back arms are smoother than detachable arms they fold backward in place instead of having to come all the way off. Set the height once to match where your elbows naturally rest, and the chair feels noticeably better all day. Swing-away footrests with heel loops Pivot clean for transfers One smooth motion swings them out of your way for standing up. Heel loops hold your feet in proper position while rolling. Removable entirely when you need maximum clearance or for travel. Quick-release axles 24" rear wheels pop off in seconds When you need to load the chair into a car or store it tight, press the axle button and the wheel slides off in your hand. Reverses just as fast. Especially useful for sedan trunks or under-seat storage on planes. Treaded tires precision sealed bearings 24" rear wheels, 7" front casters The treaded tires grip better on sidewalks, rain-wet pavement, and indoor-outdoor carpet than smooth urethane. Sealed precision bearings roll smooth without any maintenance for years. Anti-tippers included standard Rear stability bars, pre-installed Extra security going up ramps and over thresholds. Many lightweight chairs charge separately for anti-tippers these come with the Lynx as standard equipment. Chart pocket on backrest Quietly useful A small but appreciated feature keep doctor's paperwork, your insurance card, appointment notes, or a book within arm's reach during appointments and outings.
