S1 Steel Transit Wheelchair
Is it right for you?
The S1 Transit is the companion-pushed steel workhorse — and it's crash test compliant (ISO 7176-19), so it can be used as a seat in a motor vehicle, which matters for accessible transport and taxis. The small 12.5" rear wheels make it easy for the attendant to manoeuvre.
Vinyl upholstery and padded armrests wipe clean, footrests adjust and swing away for transfers, solid PU tyres never puncture, and a calf strap comes as standard. It folds easily and carries up to 18 stone. Want to push yourself? See the S1 Self-Propel.

“I bought the Envoy 8, with 50 batteries. It arrived really fast, within 48hrs after purchase. It was really well packaged, I had mine ready to go on a pallet. It was as simple to roll if off the pallet, and off you go. I recommend the 50 batteries as they last so much longer. I took 4 trips to the shops and back before I lost one bar. Thank you so much GBM, no complaints just praise! I will be recommending your company.”— Suzanne Dray
Questions people ask us
Self-propelled or transit — which do I need?
Self-propelled chairs have large rear wheels you push yourself; transit chairs are lighter, with small rear wheels, designed for a companion to push. If you'll do both, self-propelled usually makes sense.
Will it fit in the boot?
Our wheelchairs fold flat. The S1 Steel Transit Wheelchair weighs 15 Kg, which is the figure that matters since someone will be lifting it in and out.
What if it is not right for me?
You have 14 days to try it at home. If it's not right, we'll exchange it or collect it for a refund.
