BT-Mg-A Wheelchair

The BT-Mg-A is a lightweight magnesium (*) frame wheelchair that offers an adjustable center of gravity. The center of gravity can be moved forward or backward in half inch increments and adjusted in less than five minutes with a single wrench.

The BT-Mg-A conveniently reduces weight by utilizing magnesium frame construction, laminated carbon upholstery, Sun Zero G rear wheels and Frog Legs Uni-tine caster forks. Add it all up, and you have an Impossibly Light™ chair with adjustable center of gravity! Transport weight is just 9.8 pounds for a 16" x 16" frame and 16.9 pounds for the entire chair (excluding removable seat cushions).

* Magnesium is the lightest structural metal on the planet! It is roughly 35% lighter than aluminum and 62% lighter than titanium by volume, yet has tensile strength comparable to 6061-T6 aluminum. Magnesium alloys are exceptionally resistant to corrosion and boast ten times the vibration dampening capacity of other metals like aluminum, steel or titanium. This makes magnesium the ideal construction material for lightweight shock absorption and smooth riding.
