Reply To: Wheelchair maintenance / tech tips
Unfortunately, much of the wheelchair industry is focused on going through the city office and not easy to just drop by. Also, they mostly only have Japanese websites!
Here are some in Tokyo:
- Pamuk – http://www.pamuk.co.jp/index.html
- Sunrise Medical Japan – http://sunrisemedical-japan.jp/
- OX – http://www.oxgroup.co.jp/ (Has some stores)
- Saito Kobo – http://www.saitokobo.com/
It might be best to contact your wheelchair manufacturor and ask who their distributor is.
@wilgo any other suggestions? @bookman you had your wheelchair breakdown. Where did you go?
