This evening out of the energy distribution makes the chair more comfortable and improves responsiveness and performance.

Carbon fibre technology
The curved design of the carbon fibre seat, shaped around the contours of your body, ensures a maximum connection. The moulded seat evens out energy distribution, making the chair more comfortable and improves responsiveness and performance. A better connection to your seat allows any upper body movement to transfer to the chair.
Carbon fibre axle
The carbon fibre axle on the Elite X offers a huge weight saving compared to the aluminium axle. It also enhances the stiffness and rigidity of your chair with carbon fibre as carbon fibre is eight times stronger than aluminium.
The axle is clamped to the frame, and not welded in position. This provides post-build fine tuning of the toe in/toe out so you can get your chair rolling absolutely perfectly.
Tri-Frame
The Tri-frame is a brand-new design that better distributes the energy created during play across more sections of the chair, giving you peace of mind that your chair can withstand anything. Instead of relying solely on the axle, the force is now split across the downtube, the strongest part of the frame.
The Elite CX also is available with a heavy duty frame design, and reinforced ‘impact areas’ to prevent game and travel damage.
Ergonomics
The Elite CX is available with a unique carbon fibre back support and seat shaped to your requirements. It also features an ergonomic seat for pelvic positioning and optimum balance, with a tapered seat design for super responsiveness. The seat mounts via a clamp to the frame, allowing for adjustment and easy removal for transportation.
Unrivalled permformance
The Elite CX pays attention to the smallest details to enhance your performance. The perfect toe-in and toe-out alignment minimises drag, allowing you to glide effortlessly. Equipped with Bones Reds high precision castor bearings, the wheelchair maximises energy transfer and responsiveness.

And with the standard Kenda Kaliente tires, you can expect the ultimate performance and grip during intense play.
