Luna Lite Lightweight Wheelchair – Transit & Self Propel
Luna Lite Lightweight Wheelchair – Transit & Self Propel
Lightweight, folding and designed for comfortable everyday mobility.
The Luna Lite Wheelchair combines a lightweight aluminium frame with excellent durability, comfortable seating and a practical folding design. Available in both Transit and Self Propel versions, the Luna Lite is an excellent choice for regular everyday use as well as transportation and days out.
The Transit model weighs 11.3kg, while the Self Propel model weighs just 9.3kg. Both wheelchairs fold widthways and feature a folding backrest, detachable footrests and quick-release rear wheels, helping reduce their size for transportation and storage.
A particularly useful feature is the innovative flip-back armrest design. With a simple release of the retaining tab, each armrest can pivot backwards and out of the way, helping make transfers into and out of the wheelchair easier and more comfortable.
Why Choose the Luna Lite Wheelchair?
The Luna Lite has been designed to combine low weight with the comfort and practical features required from an everyday wheelchair.
Its aluminium construction keeps the wheelchair easy to handle, while the folding frame, folding backrest, detachable footrests and quick-release rear wheels help make transportation and storage considerably easier.
Breathable nylon upholstery, cushioned armrests and adjustable leg rests provide everyday comfort, while responsive attendant brakes and adjustable anti-tippers provide additional reassurance during use.
Lightweight Aluminium Frame
The durable aluminium frame keeps weight to a minimum without compromising everyday practicality. The Transit model weighs 11.3kg, while the Self Propel model weighs only 9.3kg.
Compact Folding Design
Both Luna Lite wheelchairs fold widthways to just 36cm. A folding backrest and detachable footrests further reduce the overall size, making the wheelchair easier to store and transport.
Quick-Release Rear Wheels
Quick-release rear wheels allow the wheels to be removed when required, further reducing the wheelchair's footprint for transportation and helping make the individual components easier to handle.
Flip-Back Armrests for Easier Transfers
With a simple release of the retaining tab, the front of each armrest unlocks and the armrest can pivot backwards and out of the way. This provides additional space and can make transferring into and out of the wheelchair easier and more comfortable.
Breathable & Comfortable Seating
Breathable nylon padding on the seat and backrest encourages airflow while providing comfortable support, making the Luna Lite suitable for regular and everyday use.
Cushioned Armrests
Firmly cushioned armrests provide additional support and comfort while seated, while retaining the convenient flip-back function when transferring.
Attendant Brakes
Shaped, textured push handles are positioned at a fixed height of 92cm. Responsive locking brakes on both handlebars provide the attendant with straightforward control of the wheelchair.
Adjustable Anti-Tippers
Both models are supplied with adjustable anti-tippers that can be installed prior to use, providing an additional safety measure to help reduce the risk of the wheelchair tipping backwards if it becomes unbalanced.
Choose Between Transit & Self Propel
The Luna Lite is available in two versions, allowing you to select the wheelchair that best suits how it will be used.
