Nostrowia Electric Handcycle

This lightweight accessory can turn any fixed-frame, manual wheelchair electric, helping to create a more equitable environment for wheelchair users.

The hub motor is controlled by a thumb throttle, and the spring-loaded front shelf serves both for easy access to the user’s belongings as well as to add traction to the front wheel.
