Sports devices
Sports devices customised to your requirements
Wheelchair users today can choose from a wide selection of sports and of sports wheelchairs specifically designed for different requirements. These sports devices are precisely made to measure.
The difference between a wheelchair for everyday use and a sports wheelchair lies, among another things, in the weight, as components such as brakes and push handles, etc. are not needed. The materials used today contribute significantly to the reduction in weight. While sports wheelchairs used to be made of steel, today aluminium and – in the field of hand bikes – titanium and carbon are used.

Basketball wheelchairs
The fastest wheelchair team sport
Wheelchair basketball is considered to be the most popular sport in team sports for the disabled. Wheelchair basketball is increasingly popular at the Paralympics in particular and in our neighbouring countries has become a professional sport. Basketball wheelchairs are light and manoeuvrable, which makes them suitable for the specific requirements of this sport.
MehrRugby wheelchairs
Team sport for athletes with a high level of limitations
Wheelchair rugby is a Paralympic team sport for athletes with impairment of at least three limbs. Wheelchair rugby was developed in Canada in the late 1970s and is now played in more than twenty countries around the world. Rugby wheelchairs are extremely robust and specifically adjusted to the athlete.
MehrTennis and badminton wheelchairs
Improved stability for a full swing
Although the sports of tennis and badminton can be played in a day-to-day wheelchair, special tennis and badminton wheelchairs offer considerably more mobility and stability. These special wheelchairs have large slanted wheels (negative camber) and also have small wheels at the front and back that provide improved stability for the wheelchair and prevent the player from tipping out when returning high shots.

Racing wheelchairs
Top performances become possible
Racing wheelchairs, which make the highest level of performance possible in the first place and can withstand the relevant pressure, are adjusted individually to athletes. The increased demands made of racing wheelchairs have resulted in them now having three wheels, which makes them lighter, more aerodynamic and easier to steer.
MehrHand bikes
Therapeutic aspects with a great deal of fun
Hand bikes and recumbent bikes combine therapeutic aspects with a great deal of fun and provide outstanding ergonomics, require little strength and offer a high level of mobility. Thanks to a wide range of adjustment options, they can be individually and optimally adjusted. Electric motor assistance means that freedom of movement is almost unlimited.
