So I am finally getting fitted for my new zra this weekend. I was wondering if anyone hassuggestions about features or additions i should consider or add to the chair? I am a c5 quad with good upper body so pushing a manual chair is not bad. Price does not matter since im not paying for it!!! Thanks to voc rehab. I dont want to have to worry about my chair anymore so the tech guy said just load this chair up.

I have one of these as well as a ZR. Both have carbon fibre fold down side gaurds, spinergy wheels with kevlar spokes and, kevlar lined puncture proof tyres. My ZRa also has a set of baggage carriers on the front for carrying stuff. I didin't pay for mine either, but as a T12 para, I dont need that many accessories etc but I hope this helps.

Ooo oooo oooooo Eric you need to get the baggage carrier and don't forget the light up wheels!!!

only problem I've had was the foot strap while wearing shorts. When my legs get spasams they like, hop up and down, and the strap evantually made a big scab. so I got some soft thing that wraps around it with velcros on the end. works good while wearing shorts, havn't had any problems since.

Eric,
I use a ZRA with the solid seat under a roho cushion. i love not having my knees rolled in by a nylon sling seat. I have the 92 degree foot rest drop arranged to swing up so it gets out of the way with a flick of hand or foot when i want to stand.

If you plan on standing a lot make sure you get brakes. i see many Ti users without brakes but that is for folks who are always sitting.

Good luck-
oh yeah if you pitch the backrest further forward you are going to lose depth on the seat. i did not foresee that.
