The Advenchair VS Extreme Motus All-Terrain Wheelchair

The Extreme Motus Off-road wheelchair is designed for individuals who need a caretaker or friend to help them explore. The powerful disk brakes make hiking back down the mountain safe and easy.

Many of our customers purchase an Extreme Motus all-terrain wheelchair for their children who have grown too big to be transported in a backpack. These families want to continue exploring and enjoying the outdoors with the entire family, and the Motus allows them to do just that.

The Advenchair is a rugged off-road manual wheelchair that is pushed or pulled by friends and family to allow wheelchair users to visit places they may have had difficulty reaching with a standard wheelchair.

Key Features of the Advenchair

One great feature of the Advenchair is its ability to transform from a long adventure wheelchair into a more “normal” sized wheelchair. On the trail you need this extra length for stability, but a long chair can be difficult to use inside a house or business. At the end of your hike, you can make your way inside a local cafe for a snack. The long front wheel of the Extreme Motus can’t be removed. We will go inside restaurants with it, but it’s a little harder to maneuver.

Although a cool feature this ability does add weight to the chair and when you are pushing someone up a mountain every ounce counts. Consider how often you will use this feature and decide if it’s worth the added cost and weight.
