Folding Wheelchair Range

Introducing the QUICKIE QS5 X, the wheelchair that redefines easy folding thanks to FreeFold - an innovative cross-brace design that reduces folding forces and saves you over 40% energy with every fold! The QS5 X makes light work of lifting too, with an (optional) folding fixation that keeps your wheelchair tightly-locked to prevent any unintentional opening during transport.

Weighing from just 7.3 kg (without wheels), it's the lightest aluminum box frame wheelchair too. Made from heat-treated 7000 series Aluminium, lock-out the frame and its oval-tubed 4-arm cross brace provides the ride performance to rival any rigid wheelchair. Saving not just energy, but your shoulders too.

FreeFold - Over 40% energy saved with every fold.

Easy to fold and stays folded - thanks to the innovative FreeFold feature. FreeFold stands for sophisticated and precise engineering of the folding geometry, resulting in particularly little force when folding and unfolding. During folding, the wheel camber does not change and the folded wheelchair stands solidly on the ground - a real benefit if you are frequently folding and transporting your QS5 X.

Easy propelling and lifting with the featherweight QS5 X.

Unrivaled lightweight - A remarkably low transport weight from 7.3 kg for the Fixed Front and 7.5 kg for the Swing Away frame! The QS5 X as the lightest aluminum folding box frame on the market is not only comfortable to lift, transport but also effortless to self-propel to increase the rider’s energy efficiency. The material and construction make all the difference – strong doesn‘t always have to mean heavy. The frame of the QS5 X is made of high-grade 7000 series aluminum, designed for an exceptionally high strength-to-weight ratio and is used in many aerospace applications where strength, durability and weight are essential factors.

Fixed & Swing Away.jpg

Fixed-Front or Swing-Away?

The QS5 X is available with two different frame versions - Fixed-Front and Swing-Away.

The Fixed-Front version has footrests that are permanently attached to the chair frame, providing additional stability and support. This feature can be particularly beneficial for people with higher positioning demands, as it helps to keep the legs in an ideal position.

The Swing-Away version has footrests that can be swung away to the side, which enables a safe and comfortable transfer into the chair, especially from a standing position. By removing the footrest, it´s possible to position the wheelchair closer to the object you want to transfer on, furthermore the pack-size of the wheelchair will be minimised.

Bright removable LED lights.

In many situations, it’s good to have your own light - if you need to go to the bathroom at night and don’t want to illuminate the whole apartment, or if you’re on your way home in the evening and need to see obstacles that could throw you off balance. The QS5 X’s LED lights are a great solution! Discreetly integrated into the overall design of your QS5 X, and removable for charging, the LED lights provide a great feature to light your way when you need them!

New Catalyst Difference

There is a Catalyst Difference

While every model in the Catalyst family has a different axle plate with adjustment capabilities unique to each, they all take advantage of the same innovative design features that set them apart from other frames in the market. From the patented frame design constructed from 7000 series aluminium to the dual interlocking cross braces with a power x-hinge, there truly is a "Catalyst Difference".
