Quickie Argon 2

The active wheelchair that’s adaptable to you.

The Argon² active wheelchair by QUICKIE Sunrise Medical offers full adjustability without compromising on any performance. The rear seat height is adjustable in 1cm steps, so the seat angle can constantly adapt to changing needs. With the infinitely adjustable centre of gravity, you can quickly change your driving settings to a more active or a more stable performance. The backrest angle, height and upholstery tension are also adjustable, so you’ll always find a seating position that best suits you.

Stronger and lighter than your traditional rigid wheelchair.

To create the castor-link tubes on Argon 2, we used hydra-forming. This involves heat-treating the aluminium so its strength can be increased whilst at the same time allowing the tube walls to be thinner and lighter than those of a traditional active wheelchair—the result – is a lighter and stronger front frame that’s easier to manoeuver.

The ideal wheelchair for independent car transfers.

Weighing in at an ultra-lightweight 8 kg (6 kg with its quick-release wheels removed), the Argon 2 is perfect for those looking for an active wheelchair that’s easy to lift. Plus, its open-frame design ensures nothing to hinder you when transferring your wheelchair in and out of the car.

An exceptional energy-efficient ride.

The Argon 2’s rigid frame (with hydroformed castor-link tubes) maximises your energy efficiency by reducing any unwanted flex in the frame. So more energy is transferred to propulsion and not lost in frame movement. Strong, sturdy and ultra-lightweight, the Argon 2 is one of the most energy-efficient rigid wheelchairs available today (and thanks to its open-frame design, one of the sleekest, too!).
