Mobility

One of the most important aspects in determining how easy it is to push a wheelchair is wheel size. Standard wheelchairs for adults have two massive rear wheels, which are often 20 to 26 inches in diameter and are specifically designed to provide propulsion, while the front casters tend to be smaller and are primarily responsible for stability and steering. The smaller front wheels are simpler to push compared to the larger rear wheels, since they require less effort to move the same distance.
