Aloha, Josh…do you know of any wheelchair companies in Tokyo or Yokohama that can make a custom manual wheelchair in one week? I wanted to purchase a wheelchair similar to this one: https://www.abilities.jp/techno-aid/fukusiyougu/mobility/Manual_Wheelchair/wheelchair-rgk-octanesub4
I will be visiting Japan in November. Please let me know.
Mahalo,
