Big range and strong pulling power for long days out in your wheelchair

If you're an active manual wheelchair user who wants to spend whole days out — countryside trails, coastal paths, a long day in the city — battery worries and steep hills can cut those plans short. The Triride MadMax is the long-distance model in the range, with a big drive wheel and the option of a second battery.

It attaches to the front of your own wheelchair and does the hard work for you, so you arrive with energy to spare rather than aching shoulders.

✅ Key Features & Benefits

• Over 100 km with the double battery
  Add the optional second 48 V battery and you can plan full-day trips without hunting for a plug socket.

• Strong motor for hills
  A 200 W motor with up to 1500 W at peak gives it real climbing ability, so steep high streets and ramps stop being an obstacle.

• Wide 16" × 3" drive wheel
  The large, wide tyre grips well and rolls smoothly over rough tarmac and uneven ground, for a more comfortable ride.

• Intelligent cruise control
  Holds your speed on long stretches so your hand and wrist can relax.

• Intelligent braking with a disc brake
  Confident, controlled stopping on downhill slopes, even with the extra speed and weight of a long-range unit.

• Five power levels, reverse and assisted load
  Gentle for indoors, stronger outside, and easy to back out of tight spaces.

• LCD display with USB port
  Keep an eye on speed and battery, and top up your phone while you're out.

Who it suits best

• Active manual wheelchair users who travel long distances
• Anyone living in a hilly area
• People who want one add-on for both town and country

Worth knowing before you buy

At 12.3 kg, the MadMax is heavier than the entry and folding Triride models, so it's more work to lift into a car on your own. If you mostly make short local trips, a lighter, smaller power add-on will be easier to live with and cost less. As with every Triride, it needs to be matched to your wheelchair, so we'll check your chair before you order.

Questions customers ask us

Do I need the double battery?
Only if you regularly plan very long days out. The single 48 V battery suits many people; the double battery is what gives the 100 km-plus range.

Can I try one?
Yes. We don't keep every Triride in stock, so please call ahead and we'll check — if we don't have one here, we can usually arrange a demo model.
