Rhythm Array K1/K2 Standard Wheelchair
Rhythm Array K1/K2 Standard Wheelchair — Carbon Steel, Desk-Length Detachable Arms
Overview
The Rhythm Array K1/K2 is a durable, standard-duty folding wheelchair built around a carbon steel frame with a scratch-proof silver-vein finish — strong, dependable, and ready for daily use. Detachable, reversible padded desk-length arms make transfers and pulling up to a table easy, and a standard dual axle lets you set the seat to standard or hemi (lower) height. It folds to just 13 inches wide for convenient travel and storage.
It's built for comfort and low upkeep: easy-to-clean vinyl upholstery, height-adjustable 8-inch front casters (three positions), and low-maintenance urethane tires on composite wheels. It supports up to 300 pounds and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. Choose your seat width — 16", 18", or 20" — and your leg support — swing-away footrests or elevating leg rests — to match your needs.
Configuration Options
Build your chair at checkout. All configurations share the same carbon steel frame, reversible desk-length arms, and 300 lb capacity — you choose two things:
- Seat Width16", 18", or 20" (all 16" deep)
- Leg SupportSwing-away footrests or elevating leg rests
Swing-away footrests are lighter and simplest for transfers; elevating leg rests raise and support the legs for comfort, circulation, or keeping a leg extended.

The Array is Rhythm's standard-duty wheelchair — where the lightweight Cadence uses aluminum, the Array uses a carbon steel frame, which makes it more economical and rugged for everyday in-home and facility use (it's a K1/K2 standard chair rather than a lightweight K3). Two practical touches stand out: the desk-length arms are reversible and detachable, so you can pull right up to a table and slide in or out from the side, and the dual axle lets you drop to hemi height for foot-propelling. The main choices are seat width — 16" for a smaller frame, 18" mid-range, 20" for more room — and leg support: swing-away footrests are lighter and simplest for transfers, while elevating leg rests raise and support the legs for swelling, circulation, or a leg that needs to stay extended. At about 40 lbs it's sturdier than a lightweight chair; if you want the lightest option, the aluminum Cadence K3 is the step over.

How do I choose the seat width and leg support?
Pick the seat width for the user's size — 16", 18", or 20", all 16" deep — and choose the leg support: swing-away footrests are lighter and simplest for transfers, while elevating leg rests raise and support the legs for comfort, swelling, or circulation. Both selections are made at checkout.
How is it different from the lightweight Cadence?
The Array is a standard-duty steel chair (K1/K2) — more economical and rugged, at about 40 lbs. The Cadence K3 is a lightweight aluminum chair (about 35 lbs, K3 class). Choose the Array for value and durability, or the Cadence for the lightest weight.
How portable is it?
It folds to just 13 inches wide, so it fits in a trunk or closet, and the reversible desk arms and dual-axle hemi option add flexibility for transfers and foot-propelling. At about 40 pounds it's a sturdy standard-weight chair.
