The user has problems using the manual brake mounted on the front wheel of the wheelchair.
With ski poles in his/her hands, it is extra difficult to grip around the brake lever at high speed.
There is a risk of the ski poles getting into the wheels or under the chair, which can cause damage to the user and equipment.
Solution
SmartBrake 1×1 kit: 1 brake unit mounted as a rim brake on the front wheel. 1 brake trigger mounted in ski pole. The user can choose which hand he/she wants to brake with.
User value
The user can easily control the brake with light pressure on the trigger in the ski pole. The poles can be held in a natural position from the body / chair.
The easy braking limits the need for shifting body position in the chair and user can focus on keeping the right speed and direction on the chair. The focus can be on the future at all times, for increased traffic safety.
At the same time, it provides better conditions for a good training effect.
