Crip College - Innovating the Wheelchair

Guess what? I'm building a wheelchair! I was fed up with the lack of innovation in the manual wheelchair world and so I set out to re-design wheelchairs. With backgrounds in mountain biking and machining, and the help of some friends, I got to work.

If you are in a wheelchair, or know someone in a wheelchair, please provide feedback to myself and the design team by filling out the form below. We'd love to hear from you.
