Wheelchair GT
As you might have guessed by the name, the Ultra Long Distance Wheelchair was designed to extend the thrill of long distance touring to cyclists with disabilities. Inspired by the principles of GT automobiles, the trike was designed with an emphasis on comfort and high speed over straight-out performance, though it’s certainly not lacking. It’s one ultra-stylish ultra-tourer!
Designer: Andrew Mitchell

Nice render.
How do you steer this contraption, or is it intended for drag racing on a straight strip only?
Christopher says
Why is the brake not next to the wheels?
And what’s the front bumper for?
Jason Wang says
Absolutely stunning design and renders. I was convinced that this was a real product.

So you said it can go high speed and you put the disc brake in the front wheel?? Thanx dude! You kill the man!!
Wolkenstein says
why would you want to use a better wheelchair for long distances if there are handbikes? they are much more ergonomical and efficient.
Kroneif says
On a traditional vehicle the front brakes do the most part of the work.
I believe this was for use in marathon situations where hand bikes are not allowed.
The greatest issue, is that in a device for the disabled, accessibility seems to be very compromised. For someone with limited mobility it would be near impossible for them to get in it.
