ADVANTAGES OF USING THE SPEED3X RS ELECTRIC ATTACHMENT

Using the wheelchair attachment or of the third drive wheel SPEED3X RS  relieves load off the arms and shoulders of wheelchair users, which are loaded in the same way or even more as the legs of people when walking.

With long-term use of a wheelchair, the load on the arms and shoulders increases, and with age their capacity decreases.

Wheelchair attachment SPEED3X RS provides long-term protection of the arms and shoulder girdle against overload and premature wear. It also reduces or alleviates the consequences of already existing injuries, which are very common with the use of a wheelchair. The electric attachment allows users to effortlessly cover longer distances which they would often not be able to do by manually driving the wheelchair. In such cases, the attachment is often a good alternative to car transport, as the user doesn't have to get in and out of the car, nor does he / she have to put the wheelchair in the car, which is a big effort for most wheelchair users.

In addition to practicality, alleviation of existing injuries and protection of hand and shoulder function, the attachment also has a positive psychological and social impact, as it allows greater mobility for wheelchair users, thereby increasing independence and the feeling of independence, which is very important for well-being. The use of the attachment greatly expands the possibilities of socializing and activity together with walking people, when walking or cycling, as well as on more diverse terrain, such as slopes and unpaved surfaces. This expands the range of possible activities and destinations that are not otherwise available with a hand-powered wheelchair, and which therefore excludes wheelchair users from activities and thus also from socializing, compared to abled bodied people.

The attachment thus enables a more active, social and varied spending of time, as well as the preservation of the functionality of the arms and shoulders, all of which have a beneficial effect on the user and the quality of his life.
