Highly flexible and strong; your ideal sparring partner. Each chair is made by hand in California and is unique, just like you. Individually position your feet, lower leg, and pelvis in the best possible way for improved handling and efficient propulsion.
Experience the lightest in its class: the QUICKIE Nitrum translates your energy into motion. When designing the lightest rigid wheelchair without compromising stability or load ability, several components must come together: innovative development, leading-edge technology, as well as high-end materials.
The minimalistic open frame design is made of a special ovalized 7020 series aerospace aluminum that has been heat treated using ShapeLoc technology. Together with the hollow forged caster link tubes, we've minimized the total weight and therefore total energy expenditure needed for propulsion. Drive further and faster without getting tired.
QUICKIE's decades of experience developing high-end manual wheelchairs coupled with feedback from wheelchair users drove the design of the Nitrum. For active users who are looking for unmatched driving performance, innovative details, and a large variety of options, the Nitrum creates the perfect match for fit and performance.
Patented, adjustable caster system
Instead of several welded parts, we use a reinforced and patented caster mechanism in a single hollow-forged component. The fewest possible elements and no moving parts give you amazing driving performance. Ultra-lightweight yet strong and durable without compromising adjustability.
Caster position is optimized for handling, turning, and maximized propulsion efficiency. Casters may be positioned narrower for more maneuverability or wider for greater stability.
Tension-adjustable seat sling
Breathable fabric with block-and-tackle tension adjustment is easy to tighten, and its double-loop mechanisms will remain secure.
Freestyle Back
The Freestyle Back is all about freedom of movement. By providing a 360° range of upper body motion, you can freely twist and turn without catching your backrest posts.
Compact wheel lock
Redesigned housing controls play and improves durability
Enhanced wheel lock engagement
Transfer-friendly design
Available as direct mount, reducing weight an additional 6 ounces.
Easy transport
The QUICKIE Nitrum uses a specially processed 7020-series aerospace aluminum. Together with the new hollow forged caster link tubes, we minimize the total weight of the wheelchair. Therefore the open frame is easier to handle and transport in cars or other vehicles.

The cushion is constructed with 3DX™ Microclimatic spacer fabric, Airflow base and the OptiWell™ pelvic loading area. These features provide microclimatic heat and moisture dissipation, superior pressure distribution, and optimal stability in an extremely lightweight cushion.
The Jay Lite Cushion is extremely lightweight. Every component of the JAY Lite cushion was developed to create the lowest possible weight. Weighing a mere 1.71 pounds, the Jay Lite is the perfect complement to ultra lightweight aluminum and titanium wheelchairs.
