HELIO C2

Carbon folding wheelchair

Helio C2

EXPERIENCE THE PERFORMANCE

This flagship model is one of the lightest, most technologically advanced wheelchairs in its category. The HELIO C2 is the result of a series of innovations, it features revolutionary components, an impeccable finish and all the advantages carbon fiber offers.

Ideal for active lifestyle

Easy transfers, easy transport, the Helio C2 wheelchair is perfect for active users. The innovation behind this model gives it the performance and convenience of a folding chair with the comfort and stability of a rigid chair. It is easy to take along wherever you want to go and once unfolded and ready, offers exceptional handling.

 

Ultra lightweight folding frame

In addition to being incredibly strong and light, the  Helio C2 model is fully adjustable for a personalized fit. The front and rear seat-to-floor heights, the seat angle and center of gravity can all be adjusted as needed. We are proud to say that this chair is one of the lightest and most practical folding models on the market.

 

Uncompromising reliability

Because carbon fiber is both very strong and very light, it is an ideal material for making wheelchairs. It also has superior fatigue resistance and can withstand extreme temperatures. This ensures exceptional durability, for a chair that will serve you for many years to come.

 

Key Specs & Features

• Rigid unibody frame: The Helio C2's unibody frame is uniquely designed to incorporate a hidden battery compartment, seamlessly integrating the power source into the frame structure. This innovative design not only enhances the bike's aesthetics but also improves weight distribution and overall balance.
• Ultrarigid folding system: The Helio C2's folding system features a patented quick-release mechanism that allows for rapid and secure folding and unfolding. This system is designed to be user-friendly and efficient, making it ideal for commuters and travelers who need to transport their bike frequently.
• Innovative rear wheel axle plate: The Helio C2's rear wheel axle plate incorporates a modular design that allows for easy customization and maintenance. This unique feature enables riders to swap out components like gears or brakes without requiring extensive disassembly of the bike.

Save your energy to go further

The symmetrical cross brace and rigid unibody frame distribute forces equally throughout the frame for superior energy transfer and propulsion. Our unique Ultrarigid Folding system (UFS) maximizes the chair’s overall stability, while the vertical axle plates increase rear wheel stiffness for optimal energy efficiency.

Reactive handling and easy transportation

Our vision for the HELIO C2 was significantly reduced weight and greater freedom of movement. Each component was carefully selected and carbon fiber was used for strength and lightness. The result is greater mobility as well as reduced chronic shoulder and joint injuries.

Tools & Resources used in design

Technologies

T700 high-tensile strength carbon fiber

One of the lightest and sturdiest material available, also renowned for its vibration damping properties.

Symmetrical Molded Crossbrace 3D

Entirely symmetrical carbon fiber cross brace for reduced torsion and better energy distribution throughout the frame.

Ultrarigid Folding System

High-precision tolerances and oversized pivot axles for best-in-class propulsion efficiency.

Rigid Unibody Frame

A unibody frame is much stronger and requires less maintenance than a standard two part frame. It also reduces weight while maximizing propulsion efficiency.

Anti-Flutter System

Minimize flutter with a simple twist of a screw. Provides a smooth, more efficient ride.

Evolve Caster Housing

Integrated into the frame for rock-solid durability, the Evolve caster housing offers easy and precise infinite adjustments.

Forged Vertical Axle plate

Offers the industry’s most precise rear wheel adjustability. The vertical mounting maximizes stability and responsiveness.
