This looks a little like a rowing machine on your chair and involves much the same motion. 5 gears with a forward, neutral, reverse and on handle breaks so you can maximize your effort, go up hill without rolling back,pick up
speed quickly and keep your hands clean.

I have a form of muscular distrophy and purchased these in Feb 2011 in hopes that they would enable me to stay out of an electric chair. I used them once indoor at Variety Village and found that I don't have enough upper body strength and can't keep my arms up long enough.

My friends tried them out (CP, Spina Bifida,Para), they were able to move like lightning.

I would still consider them in like new condition, full packaging, box, directions etc. New they are $4,500. I would have returned them but since I am in Canada apparently the 30 day return clause was void. AGH!!!!!!!!!!

I would really like $2,250 but am willing to negotiate. They are heavy and would have to come by courier unless you are in T.O. which would be ~$100.
