Description
The Ki Mobility Catalyst 5 is the gold standard for high-performance, ultra-lightweight folding wheelchairs. Engineered from 7000 series aluminum, it redefines the folding market by offering the rigid, responsive ride of a fixed-frame chair with the portability of a folder. Its patented Power X-Hinge expands and contracts during folding, providing a structurally sound frame that doesn't rely on seat upholstery tension—meaning your chair won't feel "loose" even after years of daily use.
FEATURES
The Catalyst Difference The Catalyst 5 features a unique "Between-the-Rails" seat design. By placing the seat frame tubing side-by-side rather than stacking them, weight is transferred directly to the side frames rather than the cross brace. This allows for a significantly lighter overall build without sacrificing the 300 lb. standard weight capacity.
Universal Axle Plate Achieve your perfect fit with ease. The Universal Axle Plate allows for seat-to-floor height adjustments in 1/2" increments and center-of-gravity adjustments over a 3" range. This high level of adjustability makes it the ideal choice for active users who need to fine-tune their propulsion efficiency and stability.
Ultra-Lightweight Portability Designed for the active traveler, the Catalyst 5 boasts a transport weight of just 12.8 lbs(with wheels and footrests removed). It folds to a compact width of only 4 inches, making it effortless to stow in the trunk of a car or navigate through tight indoor spaces.
Legendary Durability Built to last, the chair includes the industry's only lifetime warranty on its patented swing-away hangers. The dual interlocking cross braces minimize "front-to-back" racking, ensuring that every ounce of energy you put into your push is converted into forward motion.
