Quickie Nitrum
Elevate your ride to a whole new level! The QUICKIE Nitrum is engineered to efficiently convert your energy into motion, allowing you to propel with the least amount of effort.
QUICKIE's decades of experience developing high-end manual wheelchairs coupled with feedback from wheelchair users drove the design of the Nitrum. For active users who are looking for unmatched driving performance, innovative details, and a large variety of options, the Nitrum creates the perfect match for fit and performance.
User-Inspired Innovations
The first integrated LEDs with removable battery.
Mounted on both caster arms, the Nitrum's integrated LEDs 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 reduce the overall weight of the chair. How's that for bright?
- Composite housing is water- and shock-proof
- Four LEDs per side light up the area around the caster wheels
- Three modes: high, low, and blink
- Control box is mounted inconspicuously on the calf strap and includes a detachable and rechargeable lithium-ion battery
Active Rigid Option
During development of the Nitrum series, we made it our goal to optimize weight savings of each component and to achieve maximum rigidity. Nitrum Active Rigid Frames take this principle to the extreme.
Both chairs are based on the same lightweight construction as Nitrum and Nitrum Hybrid, but are characterized by the fixed welded backrest and axle stems which save even more weight, increase frame stiffness, and reduce moving parts.
Precision Control
Patented, adjustable caster system
Instead of several welded parts, we use a reinforced and patented caster mechanism in a single hollow-forged component. The fewest possible elements and no moving parts give you amazing driving performance. Ultra-lightweight yet strong and durable without compromising adjustability.
Caster position is optimized for handling, turning, and maximized propulsion efficiency. Casters may be positioned narrower for more maneuverability or wider for greater stability.
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 use the same bar to lift it. It'll also lock without removing your sideguards or low-profile cushion.
The standard option is a release bar (push up to fold) for an ergonomic and quick release of the folding mechanism. You can also choose a lightweight version of the backrest and our proprietary, stylish Freestyle® backrest.
A perfect fit for EVERY body.
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 boasts the largest range of sizes and adjustments in its class, so you can achieve your own perfect fit.
