The one a carer can lift with one hand

The Ergo Lite 2 Transit is the attendant-propelled version of the world's best-selling lightweight travel wheelchair. Someone else does the pushing; you get a chair that weighs 9.2kg complete and strips to 6.7kg once the wheels and footrests come off.

The one thing it does better: weight, and what that weight costs a carer. Most transit chairs sit around 12–14kg. Lifting three kilos less into a car boot four times a day is the difference between a carer who can still do it at 6pm and one who cannot.

Who it suits

  • Someone who can walk a little but not far, and has a partner or carer to push
  • A carer who is loading and unloading the chair alone, repeatedly
  • Holidays, hospital appointments, days out — it folds to 635mm long

Standard features

  • S-Ergo Seating System — contoured to spread weight from the hip bone to the lower thigh rather than concentrating it under the seat bones
  • Detachable, swing-away footrests, removed without tools for side transfers
  • Push & Pull attendant brake — parks the chair without the carer bending down to the wheel locks
  • Desk-length armrests
  • Lockable attendant brakes and reflective side accents

VAT relief

Prices exclude VAT. Karma wheelchairs qualify for VAT relief under HMRC Notice 701/7 if the user is chronically sick or disabled, or a charity is buying on their behalf. The eligibility declaration is completed at checkout.

Transit or self-propel?

If the user can push themselves on the flat, the Ergo Lite 2 SP has 20" rear wheels and handrims. If they cannot, this is the lighter and narrower choice. Unsure, or unsure about seat width? Book a free equipment assessment.
