Freiheit & Traveller Elevating Leg Rest

Key Features
- Designed for compatible Freiheit and Traveller wheelchair models.
- Available as Right, Left or Both.

- Padded calf support.
- Removable accessory design.
- Useful where a raised leg position is required for comfort or prescribed positioning.

Choosing the Correct Side
The Left and Right legrests are side-specific. Order the side that matches the leg requiring elevation, or choose Both if both sides are needed. Because wheelchair fittings can vary between models and generations, confirm the exact chair model before ordering.
Designed Around Everyday Mobility
Freiheit and Traveller Elevating Leg Rest adds practical function to compatible mobility equipment without making the main aid more complicated to use. Before ordering, confirm the exact model or attachment points required and think about how the accessory will affect folding, transfers, storage and access to controls. An accessory that stays securely positioned is easier to rely on during regular outings.
Fit the product according to its instructions and check attachment points before each journey. Keep carried items within the stated limits and distribute weight so steering and stability are not affected. If the mobility aid is frequently loaded into a vehicle, practise removing or securing the accessory as part of the normal transport routine.
Frequently Asked Questions

It is intended for compatible Freiheit and Traveller wheelchair models. Confirm the exact chair model with MoveSmart before ordering.
Can I order just one side?
Yes. Current variants are Right, Left and Both.
What does an elevating leg rest do?
It supports the lower leg at a raised angle instead of leaving the foot in the normal lowered footrest position.
Is the angle adjustable?
Yes. The elevation can be adjusted to suit an appropriate supported position.
Does it include calf support?
Yes. A padded calf support helps support the lower leg when elevated.
Is it suitable for every person who wants to elevate a leg?

Does it replace the standard legrest?
Yes. It attaches in place of the standard legrest on the selected side of a compatible wheelchair.
Can it be removed when not required?

Should compatibility be checked before purchase?
