Light wheelchair recommendations

    Hi folks,

    Dad has a motorised wheelchair (stroke) which is quite heavy. We can take off the motor etc but the chair itself is still heavy enough.

    He can walk a bit but not very far and Mam would like to take him out more.

    Are there any recommendations for a lightweight chair that someone can sit in comfortably while someone else pushes them?

    I'm thinking with these ultralight bikes with carbon frames, surely there's the same for wheelchairs.

    Thanks.
