Catalyst 5Vx

The Catalyst 5Vx is Ki Mobility’s Catalyst 5 with a newly designed axle plate and an adjustable camber tube. The Catalyst 5Vx is made from the ultra-light, high-strength 7000 series aluminum. This alloy dampens vibrations to provide a smoother and more comfortable ride. You also have the option to upgrade the frame or cross brace to titanium. Ki Mobility’s uniquely designed cross brace provides the feel of a rigid frame wheelchair with the convenience of a folding frame.  The Catalyst line offers a Dual Interlocking Cross Brace.  This design creates a frame that locks together so that it minimizes unwanted movement and maximizes the energy transferred in each of your pushes making your push as efficient as possible. The “Between-The-Rails” Seat Design has the seat frame tubing setting side-by-side rather than stacking them atop one another. Instead of the weight of the user resting on the cross brace, the weight is transferred to the side frames. This prevents having to use heavy cross braces which add weight to other manufacturer’s wheelchairs. Even how the Catalyst 5Vx folds and unfolds is unique. A Power X-Hinge is an extending link from the frame to the cross brace that expands and contracts when the frame is opening or closing. Another benefit of the Power X-Hinge is how it improves the frame’s structural integrity. The extending link provides the frame’s strength and rigidity rather than the seat upholstery. The Power X-Hinge works so well your Catalyst 5Vx will be just as solid with or without the seat upholstery. Not to be forgotten are Ki Mobility’s one of a kind legrests.  The legrests can be mounted or removed from any angle.  No need to rotate all the way or all the way out like those from other manufacturers. What Makes This Different The Catalyst 5Vx’s focus is providing better adjustments for center of gravity, rear seat to floor height, and rear wheel camber. The newly designed axle plate and rear frame provide you 2” of center gravity adjustment in
