Head-Turning Style, Titanium Strength

The TiLite ZR from Recare proves that less truly is more. Designed for active wheelchair users who value performance and aesthetics in equal measure, the ZR pairs a sleek minimalist design with premium-grade titanium engineering for an ultra-lightweight, high-performance ride that’s as striking as strong.

Ultra-Lightweight Wheelchair – Minimalist Titanium Design

Built around a rigid mono-tube frame, the ZR maximises energy efficiency with minimal components, making it one of the lightest and most agile wheelchairs. It’s made from seamless aerospace-grade titanium, delivering unmatched strength, corrosion resistance, and natural vibration-dampening to ensure a smoother, more comfortable ride across all terrains.

Key Features

  • Rigid Frame Construction: The ZR’s rigid design eliminates unnecessary moving parts for maximum performance, efficiency, and responsiveness.

  • Titanium Frame: Titanium offers the best strength-to-weight ratio of any wheelchair material – stronger than aluminium, lighter than steel, and built to last.

  • Mono-Tube Styling: The clean, modern lines of the 1.25” mono-tube frame are eye-catching and improve transportability and ease of use.

  • Ergonomic Advantage: A unique seat slope built into the frame promotes pelvic stability and upright posture, reducing fatigue and improving comfort over time.

  • Swept Caster Arms: The stylish, bullet-style caster housing adds flair and reduces overall weight, enhancing manoeuvrability.

  • Zero Play Camber Plugs: CNC-machined from billet aluminium to the tightest tolerances, these plugs eliminate side-to-side wheel movement and deliver a precise, responsive ride.

  • Tattoo Finishes: Choose from an exclusive range of frame tattoos – these aren’t stickers but high-quality permanent designs embedded in the frame’s finish for a truly custom look.

  • 20% Lighter Design: The ZR’s tubing is slimmer and more refined than previous models while maintaining titanium’s superior strength – making it one of the lightest rigid chairs on the market.

Whether gliding through the city or tackling a busy day head-on, the TiLite ZR combines cutting-edge materials, ergonomic innovation, and bold personal style in one powerful package.

Service & Maintenance

Maintain Peak Performance with Regular Servicing

Regular maintenance is essential to keep your wheelchair performing at its best. By following this simple checklist, you can extend the life of your wheelchair and ensure your safety and comfort.

Daily Checks

  • Ensure the wheelchair rolls without resistance.
  • Check for vibrations, unusual noises, or any changes you notice.
  • Confirm that the wheel locks are working correctly.
  • Check the tyres: low pressure, flat spots, or signs of wear.
  • Listen for irregular noises or rattles that may indicate loose components.

Weekly Checks

  • Use a tyre gauge to check the tyre pressure.
  • Check the tension of the seat upholstery. It should maintain a straight angle when the wheelchair is open and positioned.

Monthly Checks

  • Inspect the wheel alignment to ensure proper tracking.
  • Check the fork bearings to confirm they are moving freely without stiffness.

Yearly Checks

  • Schedule a complete inspection with Recare's qualified technicians to address deeper maintenance needs and ensure optimal performance.

Tyre Pressure Adjustment

The owner or an assistant can perform Tyre pressure adjustments with the appropriate tools. Maintaining the correct pressure is crucial for smooth rolling and improved manoeuvrability.
