Description
The Permobil TiLite CR1 Manual Wheelchair features a handcrafted carbon fibre frame with an aerodynamic profile and foam-filled core to maximise rigidity while keeping weight to a minimum. Its dual-angled front frame allows individuals to position themselves closer to surfaces for easier transfers, and improves manoeuvrability in tight spaces by rotating the castors back in space.
The integrated fold-down backrest is supported by custom-profiled side guards that maintain structural integrity while reducing overall weight. The TiLite CR1 features attention to every design detail – including carbon fibre castor wheels, precision bearings and titanium trim reinforcements.
This award-winning wheelchair has received local and international recognition for excellence in assistive technology design, including ‘Best New Product’ at the 2024 ATSA Awards and gold medals from the A’ Design and MUSE Design Awards.
