Experience the performance

The HELIO C2 by Motion Composites is an ultra-lightweight, cutting-edge wheelchair offering exceptional performance and mobility. With a rigid unibody frame, 3D-moulded cross brace, and innovative folding system, it combines advanced design, impeccable finish, and the strength of carbon fibre.

The vision for the HELIO C2 was significantly reduced weight and greater freedom of movement. Each component was carefully selected, and carbon fibre was used for strength and lightness. The result is greater mobility and reduced chronic shoulder and joint injuries.

The symmetrical cross brace and rigid unibody frame distribute forces equally throughout the frame for superior energy transfer and propulsion. The unique Ultrarigid Folding system (UFS) maximises the chair’s overall stability, while the vertical axle plates increase rear wheel stiffness for optimal energy efficiency.

The frame’s innovative design allows you to achieve a super-low 12-inch (30.5-cm) front seat-to-floor height. In addition to more accessible contact with the floor, this feature provides better foot propulsion. Or, move it beyond 20 inches (50.8 cm) to meet your most challenging needs.

Because carbon fibre is robust and light, it is ideal for making wheelchairs. It also has superior fatigue resistance and can withstand extreme temperatures. This ensures exceptional durability for a chair that will serve you for many years.

Features

Reinforced back cane support

For added stability and comfort.

Rigid unibody frame

A unibody frame is much stronger and requires less maintenance than a standard two-part frame. It also reduces weight while maximising propulsion efficiency.

Anti-flutter caster

Minimise flutter with a simple twist of a screw. Provides a smooth, more efficient ride.

Carbon seat rail

Fully moulded with an integrated seat slider for better seat sling support.

Ultra-rigid folding system

High-precision tolerances and oversized pivot axles for best-in-class propulsion efficiency.

Hybrid frame design

Eliminates the need for hemi and standard frame while providing a complete range of seat-to-floor heights.

Endless colour options

Personalise your wheelchair to express your unique self by mixing and matching the colour of your frame and handrims!

Service and Maintenance

Motion Composites recommends regular maintenance using their checklist:

Every Day Manual Wheelchair Checks

Make sure the wheelchair rolls easily and straight.

Check for vibrations, noise or any deviation from normal functioning.

Make sure the wheel locks are working correctly.

Make sure the front stem is perpendicular to the floor.

Visually inspect the tires (front and rear) for debris, low pressure, flat spots or wear.

Make sure the anti-tipper tubes are locked in place (if equipped).

Visually inspect the fabric for protruding metal, rips or tears.

Make sure the handgrips are not loose (if equipped).

Check the hand rims for rough edges and ensure they are free of grease or other contaminants.

Checks for component interference.

Check for irregular noise and rattles.

Weekly Manual Wheelchair Checks

Check the tire pressure with a tire gauge.

Check the tension of the seat upholstery. It should be at a straight angle when the wheelchair is open and set in position.

Monthly Manual Wheelchair Checks

Check the wheel alignment.

Check that the fork bearings are moving freely.

Yearly Manual Wheelchair Checks

Have a complete inspection performed by a qualified technician.

Tire pressure can be adjusted by the owner or an assistant with the proper tools.
