TiLite

In the late 1990s, after decades of making custom bike frames and golf shafts from titanium, we asked ourselves: what if we could apply our knowledge of materials science and customization to wheelchairs? Would a frame built for one specific person perform better? Would it improve their quality of life?

As it turns out, the answer is yes – and today we call this process TiFit. For over 20 years, the team at TiLite has been making manual wheelchairs made of aluminium or titanium that are engineered to be strong, light, and fully customised to match the shape and needs of each end user.
