Like the choice of all black and how you dyed the fabric to match! I am selecting my first rigid chair, and your advice to get an adjustable chair is good, then can buy lighter one in due time when right set of measurements is determined. If one has a progressive condition or still growing body, some adjustability may be needed to accommodate.
Thank you so much for sharing! I really loved hearing about your chair. I'm getting my first chair very soon. The handles will be the same as yours. I just really wanted to say thank you!
Nice video. It's good that you try different things and settings for/of your chair. So many people just take what PT issues and never touch it! I mod everything, it works for me exactly as intended.
I've got Revolution Pluses on my chair, too. I found the Right Run tyres lacked grip on gradients. My Quickie Neon is my first privately-owned wheelchair after over 40 years of pushing National Health Service "crates". This is the first chair I've felt really proud to use.
awesome man, pretty much got the same set up, except Ive got a roho which I love. Totally believe that its not until you get in the chair for a bit know what you like, thats when you tweak it. One other thing that ive found helpful is that I got some grip tape and put it on the foot rest as it keeps your feet from bouncing around.
Yeah! Honeycomb cushions are the best! I had a Jay 2 and a Roho, and I had maintenance issues with both. Also never have had one problem with pressure sores with the honeycomb cushion.
@sweets08816 They were an option offered by TiLite and I'm glad I went with them. Since the handles fold down, it also makes it easier the wheel myself because they are not constantly in my armpits.
I have two different Roho cushions, one that has like an air lock that allows the air to be like higher in one area. I love them. I also have a Roho low profile cushion, but my therapist doesnt like them, she says its not as good for your rear. I find I slide on it more anyway. I should be getting my Ti Lite this week and Im REALLY EXCITED. I also am looking for a place to get tested on the menox hand controls. Im real lucky I saw yours because I am WAY NOT comfortable with the push/rock..
You mentioned your j2 cushion- In my experience they perform much better than an air filled Roho cushion. After suffering a few years of slow air leaks with Roho style cushions I switched to the gel filled J2 which I've been using for 9-10 years. The gel does eventually deteriorate but it seems to take about 6-7 years & when you compare that to a multi-celled Roho, with plenty of seams where leaks start, the gel filled cushions give you more value. I had a Roho that leaked right out of the box.
You should look into getting the ride cushion man. I injured my back 3 months ago and figuring out my chair setup now. They let me try a ride and it realy helps with your posture and overall body support.
@d72466fly Thanks for the feedback!! That's reassuring. Is it made my Supracor? I'm looking into their "Classic" cushion. I demo'd their "Contour" and it was too thick to get under my countertops...then I tried the "Slimline" and it was too thin in the butt area. Hopefully the Classic is juuuuust right.
@silvertip185 I checked out that Icon wheelchair...very interesting design. You will have to let me know what you think of it once you see in in person. I would like to go to the Abilities expo sometime too to check out all the stuff out there.
@TheKkronikK Actually, I tried one and really liked it. I was also pressure mapped on it and it was the best one I tried...but I know they are really expensive. I am still gonna look more into it. Thanks for the reminder!
Were the flip down handles an option or did you after market those? That is the best idea - I hate being treated like a toddler in a stroller by well meaning people, but I have not gotten strong enough to push myself around for that long, or to get up steep inclines so I need the handles sometimes. I appreciate the video- you gave me some good ideas for how to tweak my chair.
@silvertip185 Yea, I just saw in online in pictures. I know the feeling of wanting your chair when you go somewhere. I feel the same when I ride my motorcycle and don't have my chair when I'm 100 miles from home.
that I was tested on. I emailed the company owner about the closet place to test, and even though it would be a pain to get there, a big part of me hopes the closest place is in Ohio : )
@krisreckner Good to hear Kris! I think you will like the ZRa MUCH better than that thing you've been rolling on. It should make a huge difference. Also, I hope you get to start driving soon...I would go nuts if I had a car I couldn't drive! Good to hear from you brother.
Can you make a Video of u transferring from the sofa to the chair and also how do you do you grocery shopping as I have only been paralysed for half a year and shopping is done for me
Thank you guys I've now decided on a ti lite chair not sure witch one yet so many of them! I have a quickie now but I've gotten bigger from the 1st time I got it
I have use a Colours Razorblade... but as far as cushions go I HIGHLY recommend the Ride Designs Ride Forward cushion. It's their only off the shelf cushion but I had major problems with any other design. Also there's no gel to bust or air pockets to go flat. I don't have flip down push handles but mine are removable for the same reasont hat I don't like others to push me without permission
Standard TiLite ground clearance is 2", but as I am waiting on my ZRa, I am planning to make it a little higher for general clearance. You still have to wheelie up a curb.
I got my black/orange ZRA delivered on Halloween actually, go figure, and really really like it. Im actually working with Spinergy and ordering almost $300 in custom only-ones-ever-made orange spokes and when I get them and have them installed Ill make a video. They only have orange for the LX, but I wanted to go with the SPOX because of the way I designed the look of the rims and chair, I knew I wanted the look with more rather than less spokes.
@blackpearlv6 i think my cushion is a supracor. My friend let me use a demo for a while, & it worked out pretty well. Please please please don't disregard a skin breakdown on your backside. A honeycomb has made my pressure sore occurrence become almost zero. i let a pressure sore go & it has limited my lifestyle activities quite a bit. Be Active ... Be careful :)
You know, I'm not in a wheelchair, but I have a friend with spina bifida. He has a different type of wheelchair I believe. I forgot which brand, but I was hoping to do that wheelchair for a day challenge. how much do rental chairs cost? What kinds do they let you rent out?
over the next 12 months i'll be in the market for a new chair, got a quickie neon swing away at the moment, just having a look around now, its like buying a car!! I was born with a disability, spina bifida, so you would think i would be an expert at choosing a new chair by now, nope!, lol. I used to get mine free from the National Health service (im in england), its only the last few years ive been buying better ones than those they provide. in some ways it was easier when all we had was what i call the tanks, or 'airport' type chairs lol. dont get me wrong, i love that we have so much choice now but it just gets so confusing!
I love that the handles fold down. I'm looking at getting the Tilite Aero R chair with a j3 back rest too. Just wondering if you know if the handles are a standard feature for all Tilite chairs or just the ZRa? Thanks
I was able to get the folding handles on my Aero Z so I'm sure you could get them on the Aero R. Also you should check out the Varilite Icon Mid Back rest, it has an adjustable air/foam hybrid cushion. I love mine, its great for support and gives a lot of added stability if you have a high injury (I'm a C7-T1) They also offer low back and high back. Good luck with your new chair! :)
Thanks for sharing!!! I really wanted that type of handle for that exact reason but the company and pt therapist I ordered my chair through said those handles started to wear out after awhile and that they would just be annoying. I'm wondering if yours did that? I have a TiLite AeroT.
Hi Great video. I'm thinking of getting a tilite as I've heard they so much lighter. Did you have your chair custom made? As the problem I have in a non custom made is the big gap either side of my legs and yours seem to fit you really well what size is your chair Cheers Sean
How does that bag attach under the chair? I have a quickie 2 but am looking for something that I can easily remove when getting in and out of a car. Does it just loop around the leg rest tubing?
Yes, the loop has been cut to the length of just a short piece of strap and clamps between the seat sling and tubing. I just use the bolts securing the sling to hold it down. I haven't had any issues.
Hi. Do you ever find that having a low footrest affects how well you can pop up curbs? I always have to have the footrest fairly high so it doesn't catch on stuff on the ground.
You wouldn't need that bag if you had yourself some fly ABILITY JEANS!! The only Fashionable Accessible Jeans for wheelchair users. ENDLESS ABILITY ENTERPRISES

What seat to floor height should I get...? I will use jay ion cushion and my knee bend to heel is 16". I am 5' 7" and weigh 160.... Please helpppp....?
I'm really not sure but I suggest keeping it as low as possible. This makes getting under things like tables and sinks much easier than if your chair is super tall. If I were you I would not order a chair alone. Look for a good physical therapist that understands wheelchair fitment to help you decide what measurements to choose.
Hai im from Indonesia i need wheelchair..where i can get like this.. Do you have wheelchair second. Sorry I can't speak English. But always watching you
Yes, I upgraded to the non adjustable version of this chair called the TiLite ZR. I kept many of the same dimensions but having the adjustable version first allowed me to play with different seat angles.(aka "Dump") My new chair has a plastic foot plate with curved sides which eliminates the need for a calf strap and keeps my feet in place. I also have a carbon fiber backrest which is really light. I sit on a ROHO Hybrid Elite cushion and really like it. Check out this video. I have since had the chair powdercoated black because I wasn't liking the silver. czcams.com/video/iJMGbglujeo/video.html
Knock on wood but the only pressure sore I’ve had so far developed when I was an inpatient from sitting in a hospital bed. Luckily, it cleared up when I got out and became more active at home. I’m very paranoid about getting them so I try my best to be aware of what I’m sitting on and for how long.
+Paralyzed Living Now you have had this chair for 5 years or close to it, would you recommend this chair or brand? It looks like putting the brakes on would be a bit of an awe-quid angle?
i paralized 9 years in i hear you say u didnt think u were goin with air couishion man for ur own sakk throw the jay in garbace they form to u n u are settin on very little cushion roho is only way to go u will have pressure spots if u dont esp if ur at work in chair all day but chairs pretty cool the roho take gettin use to but getvpressure mapped n you will see y i say this any us vetter than jay tho

@Kelsey1029 I think the frame (with solid backrest) weight 15 pounds. The full weight of the chair with the cushion is about 35 pounds.
