Q-Grip Handrims – 24″ (Pair)
Price: $150 for the pair (excellent value compared to new retail prices)
Condition: Barely used—only tested a few times. It didn’t work out for me because I don’t wear gloves for longer pushes, so it felt harsh on my hands. That said, the grip is excellent! You just need gloves for longer distances to prevent hand discomfort.
Specifications:
- Size: 24″ (540 mm) — fits standard 24″ wheelchair wheels
- Mount Type: Compatible with 6-point tab or rivnut mounting systems
- Material & Coating: Lightweight aluminum core with an exclusive, latex-free anti-slip neoprene coating for superior grip and durability
- Grip Performance: Provides approximately 59.1% better traction than standard vinyl handrims—ideal for users with limited hand strength or grip
- Weight: Remarkably light—about 20 oz per handrim (≈1.25 lb each) for 24″ size
Why these are great:
- Exceptional grip and control—especially helpful when braking or in damp conditions
- Built to last—neoprene resists cracking or peeling unlike vinyl options
- Lightweight yet sturdy—doesn’t add excessive weight to your chair
Pickup/Shipping: Local pickup preferred (Vancouver, BC), but I can discuss shipping options if needed.
