Paediatric-Specific Design

Designed with the goal of helping children with varying mobility needs transition to their next level of independence. One of the lightest paediatric folding wheelchairs at as little as 19 lbs, the X'Cape allows your child to spend less energy on propulsion and more on playing, exploring, and being a kid!
Setup can be fine-tuned to provide the best possible access to the wheels for each child. As they grow, 2" of growth in the crossbrace and 3" in the seat rail keep your child positioned properly for maximum independence

Z-finity™ System for Lower Extremity Positioning

Z-finity footplate can be adjusted between .5" above the seat pan to 21" below the seat pan to provide proper support as your child grows. Its pivot arm allows for infinite adjustment of the footrest angle and placement to achieve optimal positioning of the feet, ankles, and knees.
Z-finity is available with both of the X'Cape's front frame options - Swing-in/Swing-out and Fixed. Choose Swing-in/Swing-out hangers for aid in transfers and pulling up close to cabinets and counters. Choose Fixed hangers for the lightest weight configuration and an active style.

VersaRail™ for Limitless Seating and Accessory Options

Pediatric wheelchairs often don’t provide enough space to mount multiple components and accessories - custom seating, armrests, wheel locks, and side guards - leaving you in the tough spot of choosing what is most important. VersaRail’s unique design accepts both bolt-on mounts and mounting clamps, and allows for shared placement of these components. so your child has access to all the options they need - no compromises.
The VersaRail also makes ordering simple by offering one seat rail system that is compatible with both sling upholstery and custom seating options.
