Quickie Nitrum Hybrid Lightweight Wheelchair Sunrise

Combines extraordinary stability with a durable lightweight construction and full adjustability. Suitable for users up to 140 kg.

The Nitrum® Hybrid enhances our lightest adjustable aluminium chair with a powerful frame design offering extraordinary stability and a higher user weight up to 140 kg. Raised lower tubes minimise the pack size and improve transportability. All Nitrum wheelchairs are for users who value pushing efficiency and lightweight design. A revolutionary design that minimises propulsion effort whilst maximising movement.

This is innovative engineering at its best. We employ state-of-the-art materials and principles to minimise weight and maximise strength, so you need less energy to propel. The Nitrum Hybrid with a more bold design starts from 8.4 kg.

With fewer stress points due to its elongated sides, our unique oval tubing is stronger than round as it's less likely to flex under pressure. It's also lighter as the shape uses less material.

Sculpted from high-strength 7020 Aluminium, the frame is specially heat-treated using our patented ShapeLoc technology, so the tubing can be significantly thinner and lighter without any sacrifice to its strength.

Frame clamped castor links and cross-tubes can increase weight and cause energy loss through vibration. The NITRUM is hand-welded into one-complete frame, so you get a stiffer, lighter ride.

The forged aluminium backrest bracket is extremely stiff,so it's significantly more energy efficient without sacrificing the adjustability of the backrest angle or height.

Body positioning is crucial for propulsion efficency. When your weight is balanced incorrectly, your wheelchair is more difficult to push. That’s why the Nitrum series offers you the widest range of frame versions (32 in total) in its class - without any sacrifice to weight or rigidity

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 also use the same bar to lift it. It'll also lock without removing your sideguards or low-profile cushion.

Instead of multiple parts welded, the castor-link is one hollow-forged component. Stronger, lighter and completely adjustable, the castor angle and height can be changed to improve handling whilst you're in the wheelchair. The castor link length and angle are also personally-tailored to your wheelchair, for the very-best handling, turning and propulsion efficency.

Mounted on both castor arms and with 3 modes (high, low and blink), the integrated LED's will light-up your night. The power pack provides up-to 4 hours of run time and can be easily detached for recharging or to save you 110 g weight.
