Using the design principals of
the highly successful Quickie Ti Titanium, the Quickie GT™ enters the
market as one of the lightest aluminum chairs in the world. A basic 16 X
16 chair with 24" rear spoke-wheels weighs a mere 20.5 lbs. This
unparalleled low weight, combined with multiple patent-pending on-chair
adjustment systems, provides an UltraLight chair with the flexibility to
meet a wide variety of user needs and wishes.
Extremely UltraLight Aluminum Frame
The Quickie GT has a 20.5 lbs. total chair weight (16 X 16 std.
config - see order form). The frame transport-weight for the same
configuration is 12.3 lbs. This is one of the lowest frame-weights
in the world. Throw it on a scale next to any comparably sized
aluminum model and see for yourself.
Open-Frame Design
The Quickie GT's "L" shaped mono-frame design is perfect for
transporting in and out of vehicles. The optional folding
push-handles and the standard folding backrest combined with the "L"
frame-shape makes the Quickie GT frame easier to move across the
driver's seat than most non-folding and folding aluminum-frame
chairs.
Easy-To-Adjust Folding Backrest
The adjustable folding-backrest on the Quickie GT provides one of
the broadest adjustment ranges in the industry: 28º total in 4º
increments. Along with this wide range is a patent-pending spline
adjustment-system that requires only loosening one bolt per side to
make backrest-angle adjustments. These adjustments can even be made
with the user in the chair.
Front
and Rear Optional-Suspension
The Quickie GT features optional front Frog-Leg® and rear Quickie
custom elastomer style suspension systems. These two systems can be
purchased separately or in combination to provide the ultimate
smooth ride. Throw in the mountain-wheel option and 6" wide front
caster-wheels and the chair is ready for an off-road adventure.
The two
adjustable front caster-housing systems feature our patented
interlocking-spline design. These housings provide 8º of forward and
8º of rearward adjustment. They can also be adjusted by simply
loosening a screw in top of the housing. This type of flexibility
provides a multitude of caster, fork, and rear-wheel combinations
that are not available on models featuring fixed caster-housings.
The Quickie GT
frame can be modified five different ways: seat width, seat depth,
front-frame angle (85 º or 75 º), frame inset (0", 1", or 2"), and
seat angle (up to 16 º on some configurations). This group of
choices gives users the ability to customize the chair frame to fit
their individual needs.
The Quickie
Xtender power-assist is another great chair option. The Xtender
provides the perfect transition for users who prefer manual chairs
but need some assistance when moving uphill or traveling long
distances.
Each of the
Quickie GT axle systems: Standard, Amputee and Suspension, are
supported by an infinite center-of-gravity adjustment within a 3.5"
range. This frame design lets users find the perfect
center-of-gravity point for maximum chair performance.
For users who
prefer forward offset solid backrest, the Quickie GT features a
unique optional offset backrest adjustment-system. This frame option
maintains a constant seat-depth even when a solid backrest mounts 1"
or 2" in front of the backposts.
Other unique
features found on the Quickie GT include: travel wheels, for use in
narrow plane, train, and bus aisle ways; caster pin-locks, for use
anywhere it is important to keep the front frame locked in a forward
position; and grade-aids, for use on steep hills.
