Choose Your Frame Type
Open Frame
Lightest Weight, Simplest Design
The lightest adjustable rigid aluminum wheelchair in its class. A minimalistic open frame design makes it easy to propel, transport, and stow.
Simplicity + Strength
Along with its super clean look, the Nitrum is suitable for users up to 275 lbs. and offers the full range of adjustability and options.
Hybrid Frame
Most Rigid, Still Lightweight
The Nitrum Hybrid offers a reinforced front frame without compromising its proven lightweight construction.
The dual tube design is suitable for users up to 300 lbs. and combines extraordinary stability with durable lightweight construction and full adjustability. This leads to an ultra-stiff frame design and an unrivaled rigid ride.
Active Rigid Option
During development of the Nitrum series, we made it our goal to optimize weight savings of each component and to achieve maximum rigidity. Nitrum Active Rigid Frames take this principle to the extreme.
Both chairs are based on the same lightweight construction as Nitrum and Nitrum Hybrid, but are characterized by the fixed welded backrest and axle stems which save even more weight, increase frame stiffness, and reduce moving parts.
A simple formula
Fewer moving parts means:
- Less play
- Less maintenance
- Lower weight

A unique twist to backrest folding.
Just grab the patented Twist-Lock bar with one hand and twist it to release, fold and load the chair into your car. With double-locking, you can use the same bar to lift it. It’ll also lock without removing your sideguards or low-profile cushion.
The standard option is a release bar (push up to fold) for an ergonomic and quick release of the folding mechanism. You can also choose a lightweight version of the backrest and our proprietary, stylish Freestyle® backrest.
ADJUSTABILITY
A perfect fit for EVERY body.
Body positioning is crucial for propulsion efficiency. When your weight is balanced incorrectly, your wheelchair is more difficult to push. That’s why the Nitrum boasts the largest range of sizes and adjustments in its class, so you can achieve your own perfect fit.
