The Karma Sparrow 2 Transit Wheelchair is designed for everyday comfort, portability, and ease of use. Compact and ultra-lightweight, it’s ideal for daily trips, travel, or quick errands.
Weighing only 8.7 kg, this attendant-propelled wheelchair folds effortlessly for storage or transport, fitting neatly into most car boots. The patented swing-away footrest design makes transfers easier — simply lift and swing the footrest aside without detaching it, saving time and effort.
Designed for Comfort and Convenience
The Detachable Seating System allows the seat and back upholstery to be easily removed for cleaning, improving hygiene and long-term comfort. The innovative seamless elliptical frame minimises welding points for a smoother look and added durability.
