This is an electric handcycle / wheelchair front-wheel attachment kit that converts a manual wheelchair into a power-assisted electric handcycle. It includes wheel/motor, battery options, controller and mounting hardware intended for rehabilitation and mobility assistance.
Three battery options: 36V 10.4Ah bottle battery, 36V 13Ah Hailong (downtube) battery, and 48V 10.4Ah Hailong battery. Capacity and voltage affect range, weight and charging time.
Available motor powers are 250W or 350W (same option group) and a higher 500W option. Custom motor configurations may be available on request.
Two wheel sizes: 12-inch and 16-inch. A 12" wheel is more compact and maneuverable; a 16" wheel gives a smoother ride and better obstacle clearance. Choice affects ride feel, ground clearance and final gearing.
Estimated ranges depend on battery, motor, rider weight and terrain. Typical rough estimates: 36V 10.4Ah ~15–25 km, 36V 13Ah ~20–30 km, 48V 10.4Ah ~25–35 km. Actual distance will vary with conditions and usage.
Typical full-charge times are about 4–7 hours depending on battery type and charger. Bottle-style 10.4Ah batteries usually charge faster; the larger 13Ah Hailong may take slightly longer. Use the supplied charger and follow manufacturer instructions.
Compatibility depends on your wheelchair's front frame, axle height, fork spacing and overall geometry. The kit is designed for many standard manual wheelchair frames, but you should measure and confirm dimensions or contact the seller with photos and measurements before purchase.
Many users can install the kit with basic tools following the included instructions; installation time is typically 30–90 minutes. If you are unsure about fitting, alignment or safety-critical attachments, we recommend professional installation or assistance from a mobility technician.
Typical controls include a throttle or push-button power control on the handlebar, an LED/LCD display for speed/battery, and cable-connected brake sensors that cut motor power when braking. Specific features vary by bundle—check the product listing for the exact control layout.
The attachment usually integrates a motor cut-off activated by brake sensors and can work alongside your wheelchair's existing brakes. For best safety, use both the wheelchair's brakes and the attachment's brake controls; ensure secure mounting and regular inspections.
Top speed depends on motor and controller settings; typical top speeds are in the 15–25 km/h range. Local regulations may limit electric mobility device speeds or require classification, registration or helmets—check your local laws before use.
Load capacity varies by configuration. Many attachment kits are rated for typical user weights up to around 100–150 kg (including the wheelchair). Verify the exact weight limit with the seller for the specific motor/wheel/battery combination you select.
Components are generally splash resistant for light rain and everyday use, but they are not designed for submersion. Avoid heavy rain, pressure washing and exposing electrical connections to standing water. Store battery and electronics dry when not in use.
Common spare parts (tires, inner tubes, batteries, controllers, brake parts and motors) are usually available. Regular maintenance includes checking tire pressure, tightening mounts, inspecting wiring and keeping the battery charged and stored correctly. Contact the seller for spare parts availability.
Warranty and return policies vary by seller. Many suppliers offer limited manufacturer warranties on motor and electronics (commonly around 12 months) and shorter coverage on batteries. Check the product listing or contact the seller for specific warranty duration, coverage details and return procedures.
