I have been given a Quickie GPV for free in good nick but could benefit from a new back cover. Doesn anyone know if you can get spare covers for them?

yea, i go through a back a year, just ring up a wheelchair shop/dealer and tell them the chair u have, and they will get it in. Its a bit pricey for a bit of canvass, but hey! isn't everything to do with disability.

I get mine from www.sportaid.com in the US - much cheaper than using a UK supplier.

You also might want to try Diestco Mfg. corp. (USA) 1-800-795-2392 or www.diestco.com

Good Luck

When I'm re-doing upholstery I actually go thru a local upholstery shop vs wheelchair suppliers. The guy I found does amazing work, with better, more durable materials for HALF the price and half the time! . Plus it's all custom and I can chose what I like, no industry standards. Maybe you could phone one in your area and ask if they would take it on.

I did think of that but was unsure. I wanted something embroided in the back so i might ask my local one for a price, cheers
