Pushing a manual wheelchair can put stress on the upper body and lead to serious issues in the future. SmartDrive gives you freedom to do more. It moves with you and it’s so lightweight, you don’t even know it’s there. You can spin in place, be in a wheelie, or hop off curbs. Empower your active lifestyle.
SmartDrive offers a range of controls to deliver a seamless power assist experience, providing an opportunity for 80% fewer pushes. SmartDrive was created with manual wheelchair users in mind. The mounting location, the ergonomic handle, the weight, and the OmniWheel were all designed to give manual wheelchair user access to fewer pushes.
Your SmartDrive MX2+ is now compatible with Apple and Samsung Galaxy Watches. Easily control your SmartDrive with tap gestures, change settings, and track distances and battery levels right from your wrist.
