The tetra handlebar on a Klaxon Klick is driven by pushing and pulling the bar, which makes it workable for clients with limited hand function. These appendices attach to that handlebar to give the hands and forearms a defined place to sit and work against.
For a client with reduced grip or low hand sensation, having a shaped point of contact means less reliance on holding on and more control through the arm. That usually translates to steadier steering and more confidence at speed, and it reduces the chance of a hand slipping off the bar on rough ground.
They are fitted to the handlebar by a technician and positioned to suit the person’s reach, wrist position and preferred driving posture. Worth considering for any tetraplegic client who finds the standard bar hard to hold through a full outing.
