Reckless Wheelchairs is the absolute king of all-welded construction. If you're tired of constantly tightening bolts, dealing with wobbly frames, and having your chair fall apart piece by piece, Reckless builds chairs that stay tight and solid forever.
Why Bolted Chairs Are Maintenance Nightmares
Most wheelchair companies use bolted construction because it's cheaper and easier to manufacture. But bolts loosen. Always. Every bump, every push, every transfer gradually works those bolts loose until your chair feels like it's held together with hope and duct tape.
Insurance companies love bolted chairs because they can approve the cheapest possible construction and act like constant maintenance is "normal." It's not normal. It's just cheap.
How Reckless Eliminates the Bolt Problem
- True all-welded construction - Every joint is permanently fused. No bolts to loosen, no parts that gradually work apart, no frame that gets wobbly over time.
- Precision welding - Not just any welding - precision aluminum welding that creates joints stronger than the original material. Each weld is inspected and tested.
- Smart engineering - The frame is designed as one continuous structure, not separate pieces bolted together. This distributes stress evenly and eliminates weak points.
- Built to last decades - When nothing can loosen, nothing does. These frames stay tight and solid for years.
Real Stories from Bolt Survivors
"My old insurance chair was constantly falling apart. Bolts loosening every week, frame getting wobbly, armrests coming loose. My Reckless chair has been rock-solid for 3 years - not one loose part." - Ryan K
"I used to carry a toolkit everywhere because something was always coming loose. My Reckless chair hasn't needed a single adjustment in 2 years. It's still as tight as the day I got it." - Luke G
"The difference is incredible. My bolted chair felt like it was disintegrating under me. My Reckless chair feels like one solid piece of equipment that'll last forever." - Ashton K
The Engineering That Actually Works
Aluminum welding vs. bolted joints - Welded joints become part of the frame structure. Bolted joints are always the weak point where stress concentrates and failure starts.
No maintenance points - With no bolts to loosen, there's literally nothing to maintain on the frame. It just works.
Stress distribution - All-welded construction spreads forces across the entire frame instead of concentrating them at bolt points.
Quality control - Every weld is inspected. Every joint is tested. No "good enough" assembly line work.
Built by People Who Hate Maintenance Too
The Reckless team has over 100 years of combined experience with chairs that need to work without constant attention. They know what it's like to be stuck somewhere with a loose bolt and no tools.
Key all-welded advantages:
- Zero bolt maintenance - Nothing to tighten, ever
- Permanent stability - Stays tight and solid for years
- Stronger construction - Welded joints are stronger than bolted ones
- 5-year frame warranty - They stand behind the construction
The Math That Matters
Think about the time you've spent tightening bolts, adjusting loose parts, and dealing with frame problems. That's time stolen from your actual life. Add up the cost of tools, replacement bolts, and repair shop visits for bolt-related issues.
A Reckless all-welded chair eliminates all of that forever.Starting at $3,600 - Less than most people spend on bolt-related repairs and maintenance over the life of a bolted chair.
The Bottom Line
Your wheelchair shouldn't require constant maintenance to stay functional. Reckless builds chairs with all-welded construction that stays tight, solid, and reliable without any attention from you.
