Slopes? Mud? Puddles? Eben’s not stopping for any in his new Trekinetic GTE - nicknamed 'The BMX Beast'.
Six-year-old Eben, with muscular dystrophy, loves being out and about. His Trekinetic GTE powerchair, supplied by Recare, means he can now do the extra things he couldn’t before - thanks to its all-terrain capability and ease of transport.
Eben’s dad Rory says:
"Eben can now go further across grass and slopes he couldn't access before. The big wheels meant he didn't get stuck or have problems having to dodge puddles.
We see Eben's powerchair as 'mean and lean'. When he's out and about he can go for it, with the camber of the wheels keeping him stable, so going 'mean' and when we're transporting it, it can go 'lean' as the wheels come off. That's why we call it 'The BMX Beast!'"
Here, Rory discusses how the Trekinetic has benefited the entire family: https://www.recare.co.uk/news-stories/empowered-eben-gets-going-with-f1-inspired-powerchair-from-recare/
