I'm touring all over the place 5 out of 5 Posted by Jim Kent on Feb 16th 2017 I've taken my new FireFly electric handcycle all over the place since I bought it in late 2016. The motor has WAY more torque than I expected.
I was thinking of adding weights to the front wheel to give it more traction. I'm also looking into using a knobby tire on the front. I'm a tinkerer so I'm always looking for an edge. Posted by Jordan White on Feb 13th 2017 I've used both the old design and this new design, and this new design is way easier to disassemble and store. The problem with the old design was that when you went into a restaurant and left the firefly on the ground, the attachment arms would slide out, forcing the firefly to lay flat on the ground. That made it really hard for me to pick up the firefly while in my chair. This next generation firefly doesn't have this problem. The attachment arms function as a kickstand. It's way easier to attach the Firefly to my wheelchair now. If you don't have an electric handcycle for your wheelchair, I'd highly recommend the Firefly! WISH I HAD THIS EARLIER Posted by Isaac Quin on Feb 6th 2017 I wish I had this years ago to help my shoulders out. Posted by Mike Machuga on Jan 24th 2017
Like a reviewer said before me, the original Firefly was a little heavy, but this one breaks apart, so I don't have to lift the whole thing into the car at once. I just take off the clamp section and the battery, then place it in the trunk. It works so well with my Tilite wheelchair, I couldn't be happier. Oh, and did I say it was fast... yes I did! Great product but to heavy 4 out of 5 Posted by Sandy Fischer on Nov 8th 2016 If it weren't for the weight of the firefly I would've given it 5 stars. It is amazing to be able to go long distances and over rocky or rough terrain but I'm not able to hook it up by myself. It is too heavy for me to lift and it's hard to open doors with it. So for me it's basically used when I have an outing with someone else there. Posted by Carol Ann Johnson on Aug 8th 2016 I had been interested in purchasing a Firefly for several years. Living Spinal had a good price (which included installation). I love that the Firefly can be detached and that I can use my existing wheelchair without it when I am indoors.
It has given my sore shoulders a well deserved rest and I can be independent again!
