Wanted: E-Motion Wheels and Training Rollers Mar 23, 2014 15:26:00 GMT -8

Post by chris on Mar 23, 2014 15:26:00 GMT -8

Good evening everyone,

I'm on the hunt for two pieces of equipment for my manual wheelchair. First, I'm looking for a second hand set of E-motion wheels.

I'm also looking for a set of training exercise rollers for a regular manual wheelchair. If anyone has some or knows a company/person who deals in them, please let me know.

You can email me christ.rice11@gmail.com at or text me at 289-716-4053

Thanks!

Without hard times in life, we would never know the true feeling of happiness.

It's perfect for building up wheeling strength and endurance while at home. Hopefully someone knows more about these

If I'm thinking what Chris is thinking, it's like a car dyno! You just setup on the roller and wheel on it but you don't go anywhere because the wheels are spinning on the roller - similar to car dynos.

There's other setups that you can get, for example one company in the UK has a set that has an electronic distance readout as well. They're essentially exactly what DJ said!

Yup! I might look into building a set using PVC pipe and lumber though, depending on how complicated it would be. We'll see how it goes!

That's exactly it cbdives! At rehab we had a huge wheelchair treadmill that I used sometimes. Those things cost $100,000+
