Super-Light. Ultra-Responsive.
The SL stands for Super-Light, and at just 7.7kg transport weight, this is one of the lightest folding active wheelchairs available. Ideal for high-performance users who need a reliable and efficient chair that won’t slow them down.
Folding with Rigid Feel
Despite its folding frame, the Champion SL mimics the rigidity of a fixed-frame wheelchair thanks to precision engineering and premium materials. This gives it superior handling and push efficiency without compromising on foldability.
Fully Customisable
Choose from carbon or titanium frame options to suit your needs. Adjustable components allow you to fine-tune every aspect for optimal posture, propulsion, and energy efficiency.
