Research Evidence of the Benefits of the Natural-Fit Handrim

The research evidence (detailed below) demonstrates that you pay a price with every push on the skinny, round tube standard handrim. The price is less efficiency, more effort, and more fatigue and pain. In contrast, the same research shows that the ergonomic grip of the Natural-Fit improves performance and efficiency with every push:

• The Natural-Fit provides a 16% reduction in effort to grip the rim.
• You can cover the same ground with less work and less fatigue.
• Multiply the effort saved on every push by 2000-3000 - that's the average number of times wheelchair users push on their handrim in a single day.

The Natural-Fit uses the original, larger profile oval. It offers 80% more surface area for gripping than a standard handrim and weighs just 1.5 lbs.

	The Natural-Fit is the leading high-performance ergonomic wheelchair handrim on the market. The Natural-Fit enhances performance and efficiency, eliminates pushing on the tire, eases pain in the hands and wrists, and provides greater control when braking.
Ergonomic grip incorporates two components, an oval and a thumb piece that sits between the oval and the wheel rim and reduces effort to grip to the rim. The Natural-Fit's ergonomic grip makes it possible to cover the same ground with less work and less fatigue.
The Standard Grip uses a powder coat on the thumb piece that provides a low friction surface to go along with the smooth braking surface on the oval.
