hard subject. try searching with yahoo or google. that can assist!
hi, ive had a few QR wheels on my chairs over the years. now i have an otto bock. QR, with solid tyres ( makes powersliding easier) the QR mechanism is just a different hub spindle which bolts to the chair, so ought to be able to be adapted quite easily by anyone with a spanner and an allen key. if youre in the UK, contact social services and see what they can do for you. and you cant use any old wheel. coz the hubs are different, and having a hub/wheel respoked is damn expensive. my chair has carbon fibre wheels. which weigh ounces, NOT pounds.
