There are many different types and widths of wheelchairs: the classic wheelchair, hand-bike and racing wheelchair or specially built chairs for wheelchair rugby or basketball. Top athletes can achieve very high speeds. A treadmill for this application must offer enough width – at least 100 cm, 125 cm is better. In addition it needs to accommodate various different tyre and wheelchair frame designs and must also run fast enough. the correct choice for performance diagnostics The choice of the right treadmill ergometer for cycling, wheelchairs, hand-bikes and ski rollers is a very demanding one. Not only performance diagnostics but also sport-specifi c training needs to be conducted safely. With a view to the capital costs and the often limited space in a sports laboratory a multifunctional treadmill that can also be used by runners should be selected. Based on the h/p/cosmos saturn® there are several hundred treadmill solutions worldwide for running, cycling, wheelchairs, hand-bikes and skiing in use. The customers for such systems are many well-known universities, Olympic training centres, biomechanics and performance diagnostic institutes, training centres, football clubs, clinics as well as sport, rehabilitation and research centres. Based on this experience most of these treadmill solutions are medically approved and are tailored to their specific requirements. motivation and safety – for bikes and wheelchairs A formula 1 driver can only go to his limits when he knows that his car and the track are as safe as can be. Without a safety cockpit, a special seat belt and helmet, he would hardly get the same performance or be able to push himself to his limits.
