Reckless Wheelchairs · Brakes / wheel locks · AC-263
These scissor brakes from Reckless Wheelchairs are made entirely of anodised aluminium and weigh 248 g as a pair. A screw turned with a 3 mm hex key moves the brake 6 mm, so the bite on the tyre can be reset without loosening the clamp. They sit on a 3/4 in brake post and can be swapped left to right without extra parts. Clamps are sold separately.
Suits manual chairs that already have 3/4 in shaft brake mounts. The seller states they do not work with Ki Mobility Ethos mounts and are not designed for power wheelchairs. Mounting clamps must be ordered separately if needed.
