ABOUT THE APEX C - Carbon rigid wheelchair
LIVE BOLDLY WITHOUT LIMITS
The APEX Carbon wheelchair by Motion Composites belongs to a new era of rigid wheelchairs. A balanced blend of technology and design, it is the ultimate in lightness, durability, flexibility and style. An high-end technology and all the advantages of carbon fiber in a modern-looking, fully adjustable chair.
Made of the industry’s most advanced materials, the APEX Carbon wheelchair is truly state-of-the-art. The use of carbon fiber makes it incredibly light, while the cantilever frame provides optimal comfort by absorbing shocks and vibrations. A transport weight of 9.8 lbs ensuring agile transportation and movement for well-being at all times.
The rigidizing bar unique to the APEX model maximizes stability while preserving reactivity. This sturdiness reduces lateral movement and offers optimal propulsion for greater mobility.
While technology and function are important, so are design and aesthetics. Each detail of the APEX Carbon chair was carefully considered and thoughtfully designed to create a head-turning chair that challenges all wheelchair stereotypes.
Carbon fiber has the unique quality of being one of the strongest, yet lightest materials on earth. It also has superior fatigue resistance and can withstand extreme temperatures. This ensures exceptional durability for a chair that will serve you for many years to come.
APEX Carbon wheelchair offers a number of settings for a completely customized experience. Fully modular, the back angle, seat-to-floor height and rear wheel positions can all be adjusted for your comfort. Laser-etched markings make it easier to adjust key components and specify exact positioning.

about me :)
Twenty two years ago I suffered a spinal cord injury on a cold dark November night. It was diagnosed I had a T-12 incomplete compressional fracture. Since day one of my accident I have had and continue to have an enormous amount of support from my family, friends and community. Once becoming completely independent, bound to a wheelchair I always enjoyed giving back. Whether it was visiting schools, community organizations public speaking, demonstrating sports, visiting newly injured spinal cord patients, helping with non-profit organizations helping people is what I love to do. That is why I decided to start ParaLife TV. In today's world as we all know public gatherings, in my neck of the woods anyway have been basically shut down. ParaLife TV is a way for me to continue to help. Through CZcams I am able show people day to day experiences, how I have adapted to life in a wheelchair and share what our community has to offer.
What is paraplegia? Paralysis of the lower half of your body, including both legs, is called paraplegia. Paralysis of the arms and legs is quadriplegia. Most paralysis is due to strokes or injuries such as spinal cord injury or a broken neck.
Can paralyzed people walk again? Many factors play a role in regaining the ability to walk after a spinal cord injury. Fortunately, it is possible for many SCI survivors. There is potential to walk again after SCI because the spinal cord has the ability to reorganize itself and make adaptive changes called neuroplasticity
What is Incomplete paraplegia? Incomplete paraplegia is an outcome of spinal cord injury that describes paralysis, and potentially loss of sensation, of the lower body. Because undamaged neural pathways exist when the injury is incomplete, it may be possible for individuals to recover weakened functions through intensive rehabilitation
What is Complete paralysis mean? Complete paralysis is when you can't move or control your paralyzed muscles at all. You also may not be able to feel anything in those muscles. Partial or incomplete paralysis is when you still have some feeling in, and possibly control over, your paralyzed muscles. This is sometimes called paresis.

I’m partial to the orange and red colors for this chair.
I'm kind of partial to the orange as well. The chair I'm sitting in during the video (my old chair) has orange accent colors. Thank for the feedback!
Hi, new friend watching here, from frexcyjoy
Thank you and welcome! I appreciate you being here. Cheers!
Great honest review brother. I like the orange 🧡🧡
I appreciate it thanks you. I do like the orange. My last chair (one I'm sitting on during the video) has orange accent colors. Thanks for the input!
Hello
I never realized how much wear and tear goes on that chair!!
When you said you could drive through snow I was thinking a 4x4 chair !! So my pick of colour would be blue.
Beautiful cat!!
God bless !
Thank you Calico Dawn. Blue has been a popular choice. Cheers!
AGod bless keep going watching here from Frexcyjoy Lazada
Thanks for coming!
Sending support and love from Frexcyjoy
Right back at ya!
I mean I'm probably going with fuchsia, but that's cuz it matches my old hair colour that I miss (had to stop because money) so a bunch of my clothes already would look good with that colour 😁
I'm looking at either this one or the Helio, I just want to see stuff in person before I make a choice... But it will be pink. Even though I say I might consider just going with black so it for sure goes with everything, especially cosplay things, even the 1st visit with one of the vendors she was like, you give the pink vibes 😅
But hey, I might be biased.
Honestly, my brain is practical - go with what you think looks good with the clothes you wear.
Also your cat is adorable.
Thanks for the feedback! Awesome. My favorite is the bright green lol but I do want to change things up a bit. Have you been able to get your hands on a chair yet to try?
You rock brother. You're not handicapped really at all. You're as mobile as can be. I think stick with the green. I guess everything can be fixed like a restoration? Do you have to buy these, or do you get aid? I'm sharing this out my friend. Hope it helps you. Good luck👍👍26
Hi Bobby! Thanks for sharing the video. I really appreciate that. I must say green is my Favorite... but I am going change it up! The company sells the kits separately if needed. I have to purchase the kits. There about $50 a kit Canadian plus shipping. So not too bad.
Hey Shane ☺ Skkksksk
Good day Scully! I'm falling asleep!! lol
Done dikit idol pa balik po slmat
Good review. How much? Not the base price of the chair. What was your final cost after spec'ing it out?
Hi there. Thanks for watching! The final price for the complete chair, upgraded spinergy rims, sideguards, cushion, back rest and under pouch was $5,300 and change. For a lightweight carbon fiber chair that is a very good price. The TiLite I'm sitting in during the video cost me $5,600 seven years ago. I hope this helps!
@@paralifetv-youreverydaywhe8314 Thanks for your reply. I recently got my first chair. It's a Quickie Nitrum made out of aluminum. After adding my options, it came to $4,800. So yeah, $5,300 for CF is a very good price. I was still pretty surprised at what these chairs cost. I guess they don't sell enough of them to take advantage of economies of scale.
@@jaxgator24 Those are nice chairs as well. I had a Quickie Ti years ago. It was even lighter than the Apex. I still have the frame .. I always wanted to convert it into a XC Sit Ski ... Oh and the cost was in Canadian $$
Why don't you wrap the areas you transfer with helicopter tape? It would have saved a lot of wear. I pick none of the above. I think you should go with titanium-coloured accents because they won't show the wear and tear. Shane, you have to remember, the chair is an extension of us...you wouldn't go around all torn and ripped looking...why should your chair?
So happens about 3-4 months ago I went total titanium! Much easier to maintain and wipe down. Someday I may change it up again. :)
@@paralifetv-youreverydaywhe8314 good on you!!!
