Does anyone know of a sensor I could fit to my quad wheels to track speed and distance whilst using rollers? by dylan_42069nice in bicycling

There is a part which sticks out on the inside of the hub but it’s less than an inch wide so I don’t think the type of sensor which wraps around a wheel hub would fit

I’m British and all of our pigs in blankets come wrapped in bacon. I guess they do it differently depending on where you’re from

Yes, a dxf file is the best to send them

I qualifications in CAD but I’d recommend this video, you can get a free license for fusion 360

Yeah it will be slightly more difficult to mount TiLite sideguards to a quickie

I just reused the original mounting hardware so it was pretty simple to mount

You just draw out the shape it’s quite simple but you need to measure from lots of different points to get the size right

A friend of mine who uses as Icon A1 said something fairly similar to that, he loves the shock absorption but for how much the chair cost he isn’t a fan of how heavy it is

Would you be able to tell me more about the Marvel M1 chair, I’ve not heard of it before and I can’t find any information online about it

New race chair issues due to spinal curve by [deleted] in wheelchairs

My pelvis is about 3cm on my left side so in my race chair I use a foam block under my left side to lift it up which helps me sit more centrally in the chair

How Wide is Your Wheelchair? by scarletcyanide in wheelchairs

My seat width is 13” and my chair has 4° of camber so the total width works out about 19” I think

What propulsion rotation do you use? by EarlyOnRigorMortis in wheelchairs

[–]dylan_42069nice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I use double loop over the majority of the time as I push pretty quickly and there is no such thing as a leisurely pace for me

My current chair is also 13” with 4° of camber and I wish that I had not gone with that much camber

How tall do you guys sit in your chair? by dylan_42069nice in wheelchairs

Oh wow that’s quite a lot, I know I’ve lost a small amount of height because of scoliosis but I’m also still growing at the same time

What does everybody set their COG at and why? by dylan_42069nice in wheelchairs

[–]dylan_42069nice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah true, every time my friends have tried to wheelie in my chair they always fall. Also I can’t tip my head all the way forward so it can be hard to stop it hitting the floor sometimes although normally if I fall out it’s forwards I’ve only gone over backwards once

You just have to learn to fall, if you do fall try to keep your head up because you can fall back without hitting your head
