Well, I bought a Dragonfly based on the recommendation from their R & D department that it would attach to my wheelchair. I went to a mechanic I trust and since I have a folding wheelchair with detachable legrests, there is no solid mounting point for the attachment points.

The only mounting point for the clips is on my legrests, which vibrate and break easily. I could have bolted the attachment points on to my legrests, but the vibration and added weight of that handcycle attachment would have quickly broken my legrests--probably when I would be going downhill on a country road at twenty MPH. It is just not a safe attachment point.

The handcycle attachment was developed for rigid-frame wheelchairs. I need a folding wheelchair so I can fold it up and put it behind the seat of my extended-cab pickup. I guess I'll stick with my old handcycle for now.

The folks at Rio Mobility offer an unconditional 30-day money back guarantee. I had to pay the shipping, but there should be no problem.
