Nordigo is a brand new patented lever propulsion system bringing real innovation to active user wheelchairs. Most wheelchair manufacturers have introduced modern stylish designs and lightweight materials to their wheelchairs but the propulsion system still relies on self propelling using traditional large external pushrims. For over 100 years every wheelchair user knows only to well just how hard and difficult this can be!

Traditional self propelling movements are unnatural and have been known to cause many injuries over time. The technology and engineering that goes into the manufacturing of new superlight wheelchairs is somewhat spoiled if the user develops injuries due to traditional self propelling using push rims.

The Nordigo system brings real power to the wheelchair. The system is lightweight, practical and unobtrusive. It enables the user to sit in a more natural upright posture and utilise all their upper body strength. The lightweight Nordigo system is small and compact and is fitted to the wheelchair frame meaning that standard quick release wheels can be removed just as before!. There’s no need to learn new procedures, the wheelchair can be dismantled and stowed as quickly as before!

Our factory fitting service can fit the Nordigo lever propulsion system to most wheelchairs that have quick release wheels (both folding and rigid wheelchairs) regardless of make, RGK, Kuschall, Otto Bock, Invacare, Sunrise etc. We also offer a bespoke design and fitting service for non standard wheelchairs.You will notice that every Nordigo lever propulsion system has independant hydraulic operated disk brakes. These are quickly and easily operated at any point during the lever travel to stop and also to steer.
