RGK believes every person is unique and therefore, every wheelchair should be unique too. This is why every wheelchair RGK designs and builds is made to the individual measurements of the user. RGK respects individuality and believes in maximising everyone’s potential. An RGK made to measure wheelchair fits the user perfectly and supports every individual requirement.
Over 30 individual measurements are taken of the user and the wheelchair, so that it can be designed and built to fit their individual requirements.
Alongside many functional options, a wide range of ergonomic options are available to provide optimum comfort, balance and posture.
DESIGN FEATURES
BUILT WITH STRENGTH AND AGILITY IN MIND
The Predator has been designed and manufactured to fully respond to the aggressive and high-impact nature of Wheelchair rugby, yet retaining the agility and lightness on court.
We understand the sport of wheelchair rugby!
Designed with 5 times wheelchair rugby paralympian Alan Ash, the RGK Predator is an aggressive, solid rugby wheelchair, built with our unmistakeable made to measure process combining hand built craftsmanship along with the latest technology.
At the centre of the Predator rugby wheelchair design is the Y frame.
All Predators are heat treated as standard.
Heat Treatment is at the core of the Predator manufacture process... and we took it to the next level.
Heat treatment is a controlled process used to alter the microstructure of the frame to increase surface hardness, temperature resistance, ductility and strength.

Speed is a vital contributor to your game!
We incorporated the technology and know-how that we use in our Basketball wheelchairs into the Predator.
The result is a staggering improvement in agility and performance without compromising the strength.
The Predator Rugby Wheelchair comes equipped with Air Tech technology as standard.
