RGK Octane FX Rigid Manual Wheelchair
It’s time to spread your wings and see the world. No more storing your chair in the hold of aircrafts, being forced to use a bulky, non-self-propelled chair when travelling through the airport terminals, or taking up a full car seat with your solid wheelchair frame. The Octane FX is here for you. It simply folds into a briefcase style shape, easily slipping in to overhead lockers and practical sized car trunks.
No cross-folding. No trade-off of stability, rigidly, or weight. Stop avoiding seeing the world: get a flawless day chair that’s perfectly suited for intrepid travellers.
The titanium frame makes it perfect for trips to the beach or pushing over cobblestones. With the Octane FX, you truly can go anywhere.
Revolutionary Q-lock folding front design
The Q-Lock transforms a lightweight rigid chair into one that can fit into an airline locker or just a small space, without compromising on rigidity.
Highest quality materials
Only the best materials are used in your Octane FX. T Grade 9 titanium, the highest quality of titanium, is used and ensures a lightweight and durable frame with a super smooth ride. Titanium has a far greater durability compared to steel and aluminium, and also has natural shock absorbing qualities to soak up road vibration. It is also resistant to corrosion.
Made to measure
Over 30 individual measurements are taken of the user, to ensure the Octane FX fits their individual requirements. The aim is to have the user and wheelchair work in complete unison, which reduces the amount of energy needed to propel. A wide range of ergonomic options are available to provide optimum comfort, balance and posture.
Ultra lightweight
With a transport weight of only 5.3kg (excluding wheels and cushion and with a 400mm x 400mm seat width), the Octane FX is the ultimate wheelchair for an active lifestyle. It is effortless to transfer into the car or to push long distances.
Stress free travel
The Octane FX folds into a size that can fit into most airline overhead lockers. When you get to your destination, you don’t need to worry if your wheelchair made it in one piece or even made it at all.
Not a frequent flyer? The small size of the Octane FX when folded allows you to make room for more important things in your life when travelling around day-to-day.
Airtech Technology
The tension adjustable back and seat upholstery features Airtech technology, a breathable material to keep you cool while providing better support and positioning. It is lightweight, tough and designed for longevity, featuring kevlar reinforced wings.
