Ethos

Ethos is an ultralightweight rigid chair with a dual-frame design and Isolation Technology (ISO Tech). ISO Tech creates an incredibly smooth ride experience, while protecting the rider from the onslaught of high-frequency vibration that would generally be experienced in a standard wheelchair design. Interchangeable ISO Tech polymers enable tailoring of the ride experience through varying densities so the ride can go from soft and supple to stiff and rigid. The dual-frame design elevates performance to rival that of a dual-tube rigid, while providing adjustability that no other rigid frame can provide.
