KiMobility Catalyst 5 Lightweight Folding Wheelchair
The KiMobility Catalyst 5 is an ultra-lightweight folding wheelchair built from 7000 series aluminium, weighing just 20.8lbs with a transport weight of 12.8lbs. As Ki Mobility’s flagship product, the Catalyst 5 redefines the high-performance folding market by combining exceptional lightness with a 136kg weight capacity, making it the lightest and strongest folding wheelchair in its category. The KiMobility Catalyst 5 offers the largest selection of customisation options available, allowing users to configure the chair to suit their individual needs and lifestyle.
Ki Mobility Catalyst 5 Performance and Durability
The KiMobility Catalyst 5 features a patented dual interlocking cross brace frame that rigidises the structure for long-term durability and a more responsive ride. The Universal Axle Plate allows seat-to-floor height adjustment in half-inch increments with a 3 inch centre of gravity range, delivering a more rigid and better-performing ride than comparable models. Maxx Spoke wheels with eighteen radial spokes and a high flange hub provide increased rigidity and responsiveness with every push.
KiMobility Catalyst 5 Comfort and Seating Adjustability
Seat width adjusts from 36cm to 56cm and seat depth from 36cm to 51cm, with front seat height ranging from 34cm to 53cm and rear seat height from 29cm to 50cm. The Universal Axle Plate enables precise half-inch incremental adjustments to optimise positioning for each individual user. Patented front hangers with multiple release options allow further setup customisation for both the user and caregiver, and are the only hangers in their class to carry a lifetime warranty.
Practical Design Features
The folding frame design makes the Catalyst 5 practical for transport and everyday use, with a transport weight of just 12.8lbs for easy handling. A wide range of colour combinations can be previewed using the KiMobility Color Visualizer tool, allowing users to personalise their chair before ordering.
