    I currently have an Aero T in aluminum and getting the ZRA in titanium in a few weeks. I am so excited! I started the process in February when I was in the hospital for three months and finally getting my new chair soon. I am so excited! Going to turn my Aero T into a beach wheelchair. My biker buddies have done it before. Hope you enjoyed this chair! I only owe $270 for my new wheelchair and SmartDrive. Five years ago I owed $3,000. Then insurance wouldn't pay for titanium. Now they do. Weird!!! I am very grateful.

    I have the TiLite Aero T, but mine didn’t come with a cat.

    Hello Alejandro,
    Can you tell me the name of your insurance company? most ins. companies in FL wont approve for this type of wheelchair.

    I'm about to order a ZRA and would you mind if I ask the front & rear seat heights for your chair?

    • @alejandroarroyo9659

      The rear is 16 inches and the front is 18 inches, so it's a 2 inch dump

      @@alejandroarroyo9659 Thanks so much! I'm currently using a chair with a 21 inch front seat height but I'm only and 5' 10" tall and I've suspected it's too much chair for me. I've been trying to get a mental snapshot of what other sizes look like in the real world. Thanks again!

      @@elliot9688 I'm 5-9 and a half. 21 would be way to much height for me and it would have made life difficult. the only people iI know that have a front height greater than 19 inches are really tall people.

      @@alejandroarroyo9659 Thanks so much for that very helpful info! Like a lot of wheel chair users, my first chair wasn't really the best chair for me and I'm trying to prevent making similar mistakes for my second chair. There really is so much to learn!

    It's customized to fit you only and it's titanium.

    I'm getting an Aero Z and Smart Drive and it's $23,510, like how?! I could buy a car for that.

      Yeah just add the word medical and it triples the cost of anything. They are delivering me my new Smart Drive MX2 next week. I'm hoping it helps my shoulders. I' pretty active and travel a lot.

      I'm in a chair due to EDS, so my shoulders subluxate a lot. The Smart Drive is keeping me out of a power chair since I won't be propelling. When I was on my feet, my daily journey of just getting to college classes and around campus was between 5 and 10 miles of walking, so the assistance is greatly needed. Enjoy the Smart Drive! My order is going in sometime this month after I figure out my co-pay ;)

      A few days shy of 22. Staying out of a power chair for as long as possible is a real concern.

      Yeah, Im tryng to stay out of one also, hoping the smart drive will let me shoulders heal some. Im in Texas, where are you?
