New grips

Rating:

What was your concern with this review?

The new grips fit & work perfectly. I found they were easy to install but I do have some mechanical skills.

I have owned my 12er for about six years and have completed 5 Marathons (26.2 mi) with it. I estimate I have walked nearly 3,500 miles with it and it is beginning to show some wear, thus the need for new grips.

I have a set of 14” wheels that I snap on when actually doing the marathon. Most of the rest of time I use the 12” wheels because they are somewhat easier to hoist in and out of the car. However, the 12” tires are quite worn so replacement time draws near.

The walker has made it possible for me to travel all over the world including such diverse places as the cobblestone streets of Europe, the islands of the Galápagos and the trails of Africa. It has definitely been a life changer!
I am having trouble getting the brakes properly adjusted after replacing a brake cable.

  • A WONDERFUL PURCHASE…

    In common with one of your other reviewers, I suffer from peripheral neuropathy, resulting in a severe loss of sense of balance. Since the delivery of the Walker 12er several weeks ago my life has improved immensely. I now find that walking, which I …

    During walks, the Veloped is my reliable partner. Especially now after switching to a friction brake with one-handed operation (like on a bicycle), I feel very safe even when going downhill. As a person with Parkinson's disease, up until now I could …

    Finally, a walker that is not unstable, that does not create problems on the ruined sidewalk of the city, and that moves safely even on forest paths. My wife changed her skepticism into amazement, then into joy and pleasure to move. The opinion of ou…

  • The Veloped 14er is now my travelling companion…

    The Veloped 14er arrived this afternoon! I immediately trained my circulation on a 2 km excursion; the upper handle height adjustment fits my needs perfectly. The excellent documentation on the website made it very easy to set up the order.

  • Strongly to recommend.…

    Finally, my husband and I can walk on uneven paths. The Veloped is really worth the money. It's a bit difficult to take it with you in the trunk to go to a doctor’s visit, but we have a small walker for that.

    We don't want to be without our Velope…

  • Very satisfied…

    I already had the previous model, which lasted more than 10 years and was used constantly.
    The new one is just as perfect for me and allows me to go for walks with my dog as well as work.…

  • I’m 37 with primary progressive……

    I’m 37 with primary progressive multiple sclerosis. I’ve been using rollator walkers for 3-4 years. They are great for indoors but lack completely when the ground is anything but smooth.

    To stay mobile, I need to walk regularly. I searched for a …

  • All round brilliant machine and super efficient people to advise.…

    The Trionic 14er has made such a difference to my life. I pulled it out of the box and set off for a walk: down the slab path, and shallow steps, over the rough gravel drive, along the road and back to my door. The Trionic 14er is effortless to move.…
