Rowheels

Rowheels is a medical technology company that developed and commercialized innovative reverse propulsion wheel technology for manual wheelchairs. Founded by NASA engineer Salim Nasser, the company's patented 'pull-based' system allows users to propel themselves forward by pulling on the handrims, a motion that engages stronger back muscles and reduces the risk of repetitive stress injuries to the shoulders and wrists. Their product line included the Revolution 1.0 wheelchair and various wheelsets like the REV-HX and REV-LX, designed to improve posture and cardiovascular health for wheelchair users. Although the company is currently not operating and has wound down its primary business, it remains a notable innovator in the mobility assistance space. The company is currently seeking investors to relaunch its unique therapeutic technology.
