The UNAwheel is a modern power add-on for manual chairs. It clips easily onto most models of wheelchairs, whether rigid framed active chairs or wheelchairs with more traditional swing-away leg rests. The integrated 250W motor powers your ride, allowing you to drive at up to 10 mph, letting you go further and faster than ever before.
The compact size of the UNAwheel Mini means your wheelchair remains manoeuvrable, allowing you to use it indoors as well as out. While it's not an off-roader like some larger handbikes, the UNAwheel is the ultimate companion for urban wheelchair use - able to cope with bumpy pavements, trips around the park, your daily commute, and the workplace too.
Transport
At just 5.3 kg, the UNAwheel Mini is the lightest powered add-on available, far lighter than anything else on the market. It comes as standard with a convenient carry case that allows you to pack your UNAwheel neatly away for storage or travel. The air safe batteries and compact size allow you to take your UNAwheel wherever you travel, including by plane, coach and car.
Style
The UNAwheel has a sleek, minimalistic styling to it with no external wiring, and the smart matt black casing complements the appearance of your wheelchair. We normally have ours fitted to an all-black TiLite TRA, and they look fantastic together.
Our Verdict
There's nothing else like the UNAwheel. Other handbikes are larger and heavier, while some of the lighter power add-ons around such as the Smoov and SmartDrive (which are both still heavier than the UNAwheel) still require use of your wheelchair handrims to steer rather than the UNAwheels convenient handlebars.
We think the UNAwheel is great for those needing some extra help with getting around; it's easy to attach, easy to drive and easy to transport. If you travel regularly, even better - it's the perfect companion. It's also notably cheaper than other powered add-ons.
