Introducing the TiLite CR1
-
Foam filled core: dense urethane foam intended to provide additional rigidity and strength
-
Aluminum trim rings: reinforcing bonded joints for ultimate durability and aesthetics
-
Carbon fiber frame: ultra lightweight material with aerodynamic shape
Dual-angled front end
With an additional bend in the frame's downtube, users are able to get up to 2" closer to other surfaces for easier transfers. This bend also allows us to rotate the castors back in space for improved access in tight areas.
The Award-Winning TiLite CR1
The TiLite CR1 is a testament to innovation, user-centric design, and novel technology in manual wheelchairs. Locally, the TiLite CR1 was named "Best New Product" at the Assistive Technology Suppliers Australia Awards 2024.
Internationally, Permobil has won both the A’ Design Award & Competition and International Awards Associate MUSE Design Awards for the TiLite CR1, designed by Doug Garven, principal product manager.
Integrated fold-down backrest
Optimising weight savings while maintaining functionality was our greatest challenge. Custom-profiled side guards that act as structural members to the frame hold the backrest in place and allow you to fold down your backrest for easy transportation.
