Twelve-inch rear wheels and a flat fold

Twelve-inch flat-free rear wheels give a larger rolling surface than the 8 in wheels on many companion chairs. The frame folds flat, and a lever on the back lets a companion drop the backrest. Wheel locks are companion-operated. A lap belt is included. Official Drive colors for this model are blue or red frames.
