We're continuing our conversation about configuring a K0005 wheelchair to an individual. So far we've looked at seat-to-floor height, seat slope, and ergo seat. Today we're looking at foot support-to-seat length and front frame angle.

Foot Support-to-Seat Length
The foot support-to-seat length is also known as leg rest length. It is important to provide lower extremity support, ensuring optimal femoral contact at the seat surface and clearance of obstacles at the footplates.
