ALTHEA’S MINI ME

The lightweight orthopaedic wheelchair ARIEL has an aluminium light frame. The foldable frame is completely adjustable to match perfectly the children’s needs. ARIEL is a derivation of ALTHEA, the renowned light wheelchair for adults. The widest range of configurations and options of ALTHEA are transposed into ARIEL for children.

MEASURES MATTER

ARIEL is a wheelchair that follows its user in growth. Together with the wheelchair you will get special extensions to take the seat depth up to 6 centimetres more starting from the seat size chosen at the order’s moment. Growing up is so easy!

A COLORFUL GAME

The range of colours and shades you can choose for your ARIEL frame is wide and surprising! Play with the upholstery’s colours and with the anodized set (rear wheels rims if with LIGHT model wheels, hubs and forks). Combine your symphony and create a fantastic wheelchair starting from your dreams.

LIGHTS AND PIROUETTES

An extraordinary wheelchair needs only one element to exist: your choices, from the smallest to the biggest. The spokeguards world is multi-coloured and open to everyone’s choice. The visual impact will be so strong and cheerful, just imagine the potential you can express by matching the spokeguards to your personality!
