Karman S-115 is an ultra-lightweight wheelchair that is capable of providing enough reliability and comfort for most users. Its frame is made of aluminum, making it the lightest option in our list at just 25 pounds, yet the sturdiness is also not an issue. The ergonomic padded upholstery provides enough comfort and breathability needed for those who are spending extended periods of time in a wheelchair. The adjustable height and comfortable leg rests with calf support also make it easier for users to find their ideal seating position. Another great feature is the handrim, which is ergonomically designed to provide more comfort and grip when pushing the wheelchair. The Karman S-115 is also easy to assemble, so you won’t probably need help from others when setting it up.
Both the Karman S-115 and Tracer IV Wheelchair for Adults come with hand-rims to enable you to propel the wheelchair, making it easy to move from one point to another. The only difference is that the former comes with hand-rims made with an ergonomic design while the latter has smooth hand-rims. Hand-rims with an ergonomic design increase your grip, and you can use them the whole day without getting tired.
