Sorry greybeard,

i had paid £4999.99 For the nineteen inch trekinetic with all option extra's available.

Then the night-mares started and bills mounted as the customer service was non-existant due to arrogance, got ya money, now i have a problem tell some one that is bothered as i am not.

In regards to chief executive "simon" a very major lesson learnt.

I got burned.

That seems counter productive. Use the money you would use to buy the crossfire to make the Trekinetic more to your liking....

I don't feel like making my life more complicated than it is.
If I employed engineers to make the Trekinetic more to my liking it would probably end up looking somethimg like a Crossfire.
My main problem with the Trekinetic is it's bloody hard to transfer into from the drivers seat of my car, by 'bloody hard' I mean impossible.

This my biggest ever regret, not listening to respectfull members of the apparalzed forum .

I got bar-b-qed and burned at the stake, the money mountain looks more like a small hill. If i had listened i would of saved £1,500:00 with no problem and excellent customer service.

The top end cross fire all terrain wheelchair has a excellemt record for reliabiliability.

Genuine example if you do not listen to respectful forum members comments you will be burned. I got burned that bad it was like being hit by a express freight train at high speed. A hard lesson learnt from a former stubborn individual thinking i knew it all. A word of advice if you do listen to respectfull forum members.
Then you are on own and the financial concequenes are very severe, from a former stubborn individual with a very bad attitude.
Now respecting every member of this forum, respect is earned not given, should you you not listen listen to any one then you will out casted by every body as a non respectfull member.

I have since put my hands up in shame, and paid for my punishment financially. To chief executive "simon" and all forum members you all have my upmost respect , but i am aware to earn the respect from forum members will take time to earn, due to my stubborn foolish attitude towards you all in the past.

I am sincerely sorry and appologise to all members of this forum, so we can draw a line in the sand, start a fresh new page.

From a reformed and respectfull member of the forum who respects all other user's of this forum.

Don't beat yourself up about it. We can all be stubborn at times and think we know best but the majority of us don't admit our mistakes like you did. Put it in the past, I'm sure no-one bears a grudge. Welcome back.

i know the owner of this wheelchair, and the way the director took his money was one thing, but since he has put every thing right what mike spindle failed on .
it is now discoverved he sells the wheelchair with out motability safety certication so can not travel in vehicle as has not tested safely and with out that certicate. i ask the question why is this individual nike spindle selling a product that has no crash worthiness safety certificate. it like selling motorbike with no wheels.
why does this go on where in a industry safety paramount.

Im confused. Did you use the chair much before all the adaptions you have made? And what kind of conditions did you use it in, for example, off roading or fields or sand? Im just being inquisitive as to how the wheels broke/were not up to the job.

After being some where with a lot of parents and a lot of kids which equals a lot of parents pushing strollers, i finally figured out what the Trekinetic reminds me of. A human size stroller.

You mean a "big human" (adult) sized stroller lol? Posted Image I think you are absolutely right though. When it was first described to me I thought of a backwards jogging stroller.
