DISCONTINUED PRODUCT

The 20006 Invacare Top End Excelerator XLT Gold has been re-designed to be lighter and faster with more control than ever. What's new? First off, the frame and fork geometry adjust so that every rider can use a fast and furious trunk-powered position. Control through the turns are even smoother with the new steering dampener. The XLT Gold has newly designed ramped and pinned chain rings for unprecedented ease of shifting. The Top End S crankset incorporates new aluminum crank arms with a re-designed oversized bottom bracket spindle, which reduces weight but maximizes stiffness. The 27 speeds operated by Shimano Rapid fire hands-on-shifter/brake delivers smooth, repsonsive shifting and braking right at your fingertips, plus the easy-to-operate, no cable, virtually maintenance free, manual upper derailleur system takes the guess work out of the chain rings.

By combining our new frame design with our relentless obsession for product enhancement and weight savings, plus precision craftsmanship, we've developed a stunning handcycle that performs like nothing else on the road.
