Show Notes

So many factors impact ride quality for people who propel their own wheelchairs. Can truly building that wheelchair around its rider — a process that manufacturer RGK refers to as "made to measure" — make a difference in the overall rider experience? RGK's Josh Anderson, Jim Black, and Sarah Leonard, PT, DPT, ATP, explain the significance of made-to-measure's precise calculations, how made to measure differs from custom configuration, and what a better ride can ultimately mean to people who use ultralightweight wheelchairs.
