RGK (Sunrise Medical) · Rigid-frame active / ultralight · MW-005
The RGK Octane Sub4 is a made-to-measure rigid wheelchair in Grade 9 titanium. RGK guarantees a weight below 4 kg (8.8 lb), not counting wheels and cushion. More than 30 body measurements go into each frame, seat width and depth are set in 5 mm steps, and carbon fibre is used for parts such as the sideguards and footplate.
Best for experienced active users who already know their ideal set-up and want a fully bespoke, very light chair. It is not transit compatible, so it suits people who transfer to a car seat when travelling.

Rigid frames win on weight and push efficiency. Folding frames win on packing size. The gap is smaller than it used to be, so check real figures.
