Galaxy Lite Lightweight Folding Wheelchair

Lightweight. Adjustable. Built for Everyday Mobility.

The Galaxy Lite Wheelchair by Future Mobility is a lightweight, high-performance folding manual wheelchair designed for users who want comfort, adjustability, durability, and easy transportation.

Built with a strong aluminum frame and a highly adjustable configuration, the Galaxy Lite combines the portability of a folding wheelchair with features typically found on more advanced manual mobility systems. Its lightweight design makes it easier to propel, fold, store, and transport while maintaining the strength and stability needed for everyday use.

Whether you're looking for a wheelchair for daily mobility, rehabilitation, community use, or transportation, the Galaxy Lite offers a versatile solution that can be configured around the user's individual needs.

Key Features

Lightweight & Easy to Fold

Weighing approximately 32 lbs. (14.5 kg), the Galaxy Lite features a lightweight aluminum folding frame designed for easier transportation and storage.

The wheelchair folds quickly for transport, while optional quick-release rear wheels can be removed to further reduce the size and weight when loading the chair into a vehicle.

Durable Aluminum Cross-Brace

The Galaxy Lite uses a reinforced aluminum cross-brace with elliptical heavy-duty tubing to provide excellent frame rigidity without unnecessary weight.

The oversized pivot axle contributes to a structurally sound frame and helps promote straighter tracking and a more predictable ride.

Highly Adjustable Design

The Galaxy Lite provides extensive adjustability to help achieve a more personalized wheelchair setup.

Depending on the selected configuration, adjustments include:

• Seat-to-floor height
• Rear axle position
• Back angle
• Armrest height
• Caster position
• Wheel lock configuration
• Footplate positioning

These adjustments allow the wheelchair to be configured for the user's comfort, positioning, propulsion, transfers, and everyday mobility needs.

Adjustable Seat-to-Floor Height

Two frame configurations provide a wide range of seat-to-floor heights:

• Small Frame: 13"–16.5"
• Large Frame: 17"–19.5"

The adjustable axle plate and caster journal allow the wheelchair to be configured according to the user's positioning and mobility requirements.

Multi-Angle Adjustable Back

The Galaxy Lite features adjustable back canes, allowing the back angle to be customized for comfort and positioning.

The back can be adjusted from approximately +7° to -21° in 3.5° increments.

Two back cane height options are available:

• Low Back Cane: 20¾"
• High Back Cane: 24¾"

Height-Adjustable Armrests

Height-adjustable armrests help provide appropriate upper-extremity support and positioning.

The convenient pin-release design allows the armrest height to be adjusted quickly and easily.

Swing-Away Removable Leg Supports

Dual swing-away leg supports can be moved to the side or removed completely, helping provide additional clearance during transfers.

Multiple footplate and leg support configurations are available depending on the user's requirements.

Quick-Release Rear Wheels

The Galaxy Lite is available with 20", 22", or 24" rear wheels, with airless or pneumatic tire options.

Quick-release options allow the rear wheels to be removed quickly, making the wheelchair more compact and easier to transport.

Quick-Flip Anti-Tippers

Quick-flip anti-tippers provide additional rearward stability and can conveniently be moved out of the way when required.

Adjustable Wheel Locks

Choose from push-to-lock or pull-to-lock wheel locks to secure the wheelchair while stationary.

Wheel lock extensions are also available for users who require additional reach or leverage.

Adjustable Caster System

The adjustable caster journal allows proper caster stem positioning and provides flexibility when configuring the wheelchair's seat-to-floor height.

Standard and short caster fork options are available.
