CUSTOM ADAPTATION PURPOSE: To enable a tall parent to push a child's wheelchair. The existing push handles were sawed off a wheelchair and new ferrules were fixed inside the exposed tubes with Loc-tite. Two new longer L-shaped handles were made of metal and one end of each was afixed in the new ferrules. The handles were finished by painting them red to match the rest of the chair and attaching bicycle-style rubber handgrips. TITLE: Bicycle and Beyond. JOURNAL: TAD Journal.
