• Features & Benefits

  • The innovative Carbotecture castor forks and hydroformed castor housing increases the aluminium’s             strength while allowing it to be thinner and lighter.  The result is a lighter and stronger front frame that’s       easier to manoeuvre.
    
  • Weighing from an ultra-lightweight 8 kg (6 kg with its quick-release wheels removed), the Argon 2 is              ideal for those looking for an active wheelchair that’s easy to lift. Plus, its open-frame design allows easy independent transfers in and out of the car.
  • The Argon 2’s rigid frame optimises your energy efficiency by reducing any unwanted flex in the frame          and instead transfers your energy to propulsion.
    
  • Choose between two different knee angles and frame insets to meet your requirements of a compact            wheelchair.
  • Personalise your Argon 2 with a wide selection colours for the frame, wheel rim, hub castor forks and              upholstery trim.
  • The Argon 2 is compatible with a full range of JAY seating to support your postural needs and active                lifestyle.  Options include the J3 Carbon Back, as strong as aluminium but 60% lighter, offering incredible energy efficiency with exceptional comfort and stability.
  • Crash tested in accordance with ISO 7176-19, so you can use it as a transport seat in your vehicle.
