The ZRa is a nice chair it was that or the Gt Ti for me both chairs can be considered high end my chair looks almost identical but i went with the raw titanium finish and i have more of a street tire pattern on my tires (think toyo proxy) same wheels dif color def. the best chair i have had yet.

And the wheight on mine is like 16-18 pounds without a$$ cushion i can get it down lighter i just havent got around to pulling the anti tippers off and that wheight is with armrest and frogleg casters (front wheels with suspension) which i dont have on mine. mine is like a gutted honda just the essentials, on my last chair i took wheight reduction a bit to far i didnt even have brakes (saved my like a quarter pound)

I thought about getting the polished aluminum finish, but decided it would be too flashy for me.

i hate primos i would go through a set every few months and they just dont wear good at all.

I put the new Schwalbe marathon Evos on mine reminds me of the tread pattern from the tires on my truck.

So I'm assuming you guys have to pop it up on the back 2 wheels to go through grass and sand? How do these things work on carpet? To me it seems like the only enjoyable surface to ride on would be something hard and smooth like a gym floor or real smooth concrete.

oh cool.
I had a set of primos on my last chair when I got it. and 1-2 months later you could see the cords. absolutley rediculous. The tire tread in that first pic is what the tread looked like on these mountain bike tires after about 5 years.

yea. just pop up for sand and some grass depending on the thickness and how pitted the ground is.
carpet is absolutely fine. These Rollerblade wheels roll like nothing so it really helps.

When I was in Rehab they ran out of things for me to do so they had me going down the hallways on 2 wheels weaving in and out of cones forwards and backwards.

It's stupid tho. They have to teach you how to do stairs and escalators because in a fire you can't use the elevator. But when you go to the mall to learn, you get in trouble. And most of the escalators around here aren't even wide enough for a wheelchair.

Joshua, do you have any more pictures of your truck setup? I saw a little bit of the pedal assembly in another picture you had posted in a thread, and I was curious how that worked, looks pretty interesting.
