PAWS by Rehasense is the ideal power add-on for manual wheelchairs. It combines ergonomics and functionality with appealing design to transform manual wheelchairs into an exciting vehicle.
Drive to work, go shopping, and discover new places. PAWS is a great alternative to the car and allows the user to enjoy life independently.
There are three PAWS models available:
The City comes with a 12”and 14” wheel and has a short wheelbase and small turning circle that is ideal for use indoors or outdoors on smooth roads.
The Cruiser has a 16” wheel and is suitable for use on medium to more challenging terrain.
The Tourer has a 20” wheel which is available with two tire widths – a 2” all-purpose tire and a 4” fat tire for rougher terrain.
The power add-on for urban environments
PAWS City may be ordered with either a 12” or 14” front wheel and is designed primarily for city travelling. Choose 12” for the smoother roads or 14” for rougher terrains. With a 1m turning circle, it is great indoors as well. PAWS City likes hard ground and even surfaces but can also cope with uneven pavement and curbs.
The power add-on for a cruisy ride
PAWS Cruiser is a powerful and versatile add-on drive for manual wheelchairs, whether being used in the city or on a forest path. The big 16” drive wheel eats up the bumps for a really cruisy ride.
The power add-on for off-road adventures
PAWS Tourer is designed to help the user go where other wheelchairs and add-on drives stop. This power add-on has the longest wheelbase of all PAWS models, so while the big wheel overcomes roots and uneven terrain, it also makes a smooth ride while touring. PAWS Tourer is the true off-road stager. With a 20” wheel and 4” fat tire, it will easily go places that would be difficult for other models. Designed primarily for off-road purposes, it is not afraid of sand, gravel, stones.
That’s why we offer clients the opportunity to visit our locations and get a true sense of any given product. Motion isn’t a place. It’s a partnership, and a promise: we work with you to turn our products into possibilities.
In certain cases, a client may choose to provide payment upfront, in full, before funding has been approved. That means Motion can proceed with ordering their equipment. But, don’t forget: most funders will only pay the amount approved after the date of approval. If the client asks Motion to order the equipment before receiving funding approval, the client will be responsible for paying the full amount of the equipment to Motion if the application isn’t approved.
Remember: a client may choose to bridge the gap between application and delivery of their final equipment by making the most of Motion’s rental equipment and repair service offerings.
Please speak to a Motion representative for complete details.
