Twist
Power In Every Direction
Twist redefines power-assist mobility—not simply to go farther, but as a system that understands how you want to move. By blending natural user input with precision-engineered assistance, Twist delivers a power experience unlike anything else. Whether mounted in the front or rear, it unlocks a new standard of versatility, confidence, and control—making it the first compact, multi-function power assist accessory built to move with you, not just for you.
VERSATILITY THAT CHANGES YOUR WORLD
Twist transitions between rear (push) and front (pull) configurations entirely at ground level—no lifting required. The rear position offers compact, low-speed maneuverability for indoor settings. Front positions increase ground clearance, enable consistent downhill speed control, and introduce motor braking for stopping via the side button on the Multi-Function Controller (comes standard). An optional foldable handlebar adds steering stability, increases speed capacity to 9 mph, and integrates a mechanical disc brake. Simply move Twist from rear to front and attach the optional handlebar.* As a power assist accessory (E0986), Twist promotes the reduction of stress and fatigue on your body and shoulders.
PRECISION IN TIGHT SPACES
When rear mounted, Twist is a compact package. Ideal for offices, restaurants, public transportation, schools, and in-home. Smart Speed Behavior enhances the ride experience. Simply set a desired speed, and Twist responds with the power to match. When resistance is applied at the rims—whether to steer, slow, or stop—Twist reduces motor output. As that resistance eases, the system re-accelerates smoothly back to the set speed. Acceleration, top speed, and motor sensitivity are fully programmable.
FRONT MOUNT VERSATILITY
Twist can switch between pushing from the back and pulling from the front—no lifting required. Engineered for outdoor performance, the front setup lifts the casters off the ground, delivering a smooth, stable ride—giving you the freedom to take on distance, terrain and improve obstacle clearance. For easier steering, going longer distances, and a mechanical disk brake for strong safe stops, add the optional foldable handlebar to your Twist.
SPEED CONTROL: UP AND DOWN
When going up an incline, Climb Assist Mode provides consistent drive experience, easily re-engage adaptive speed behavior with a single button tap on the Multi-Function Controller.
FOLD, STOW AND GO
Innovation that creates everyday ease is what you will experience with Twist’s ingeniously designed Folding Handlebar. Engineered for real-world convenience, it attaches effortlessly, folds down in seconds, and stows neatly—no tools, no hassle. Lightweight yet durable, the handlebar enhances control and maneuverability on longer rides or varied terrain. When not in use, the handlebar fits easily into the carry bag – making it the perfect travel companion for riders on the go.
EFFORTLESS AND RELIABLE CONNECTION
Twist connects to all types of manual wheelchairs, both rigid and folding, using the patented Linking System Klaxon®. The innovative, high-quality design of the linking system provides easy front and rear attachment. The audible latch acknowledgement ensures you know when you are ready to go.
SMART, PERSONALIZED CONTROL – Klaxon® App
The Klaxon app puts customization at your fingertips—offering intuitive control over speed, braking, and power settings. View real-time usage stats, monitor battery performance, and fine-tune the driving experience to match personal preferences, abilities, or environmental needs.
For added convenience, Twist can be pre-programmed prior to delivery—so it is ready to go out of the box, based on pre-selected settings you choose at time of quote or order.
