BRO opens up new possibilities
BRO combines the comfort of a traditional electric wheelchair with the freedom of stair-climbing technology. The wheelchair’s smart features stabilize the movement and eliminate the need for torso stability.
The height-adjustable seat allows you to pick up items from shelves, have a conversation at eye level or even sip a drink at the bar. Two large wheels ensure a stable ride on varying surfaces and the small turning radius makes BRO agile too.
