Hi guys quick question.

Backstory: Wheelchair stolen, looking for somewhat cheap replacement so I can save up for a new permanent chair.

Anywoo, I'm hoping to get an answer on this soon, the ebay seller hasn't replied to my message and its worrying me as I don't want to buy the chair unless I find out.
Making matters worse, I can hardly find any information at all on this chair through google or any other means.


I can't see a mechanism on this chair that would allow the back to fold down (for car transfer). I mean... it doesn't look at all like the way my old chair used to fold down.

I was under the impression that all rigid chairs had fold down backs? I've only ever had one wheelchair so my knowledge on parts etc. is very limited.

Based on the pics in this ebay auction, can you tell me if the back folds down? Thanks a lot.

I tried using Google to find pix/specs....seems this particular model of chair has been discontinued. So has my XTR. I've had several different chairs....& all of the rigid ones folded the same way with the string in the back. This doesn't mean that EVERY rigid chairs does....but I haven't found any that didn't "fold". The "rigid" vs. "folding" is meaning the frame itself not the back rest.
