New to UK Dreeft – Brake Wheels

Dreeft – Brake Wheels

1st intuitive braking system for manual wheelchairs

Inspired by Dutch bicycles, the Dreeft wheels incorporate a “back-pedal” braking system at their centre, enabling wheelchair users to activate a brake by lightly pulling the handrail backwards.

With Dreeft, you can slow down, turn and reverse without any friction in your hand and with 5x less effort! #dreeftwheels #dreeftbrakingwheels #dreeftwheelsinuk #dreeftwheelsuk #susurro

** Axle Pins & Adapter

AXLE PINS

To adapt Dreeft to the wheelchair, you must obtain axles of the correct length.

You must measure the diameter and depth of the wheelchair's axles.

To do this, take both measurements from the diagram shown.

L: Measure the distance between the bearing and the start of the balls.

All axles have an adjustable range of +/- 2mm in length.

The original wheelchair wheel axles are likely not suitable.
