The Journey So Lite C2 makes getting around a little easier for both the person riding and the person helping. Built with a remarkably lightweight magnesium frame, this manual wheelchair weighs less than 27 lbs., making it easier to lift into a car, take along on trips, or store between uses. The comfortable padded seat, flip-back armrests, and compact folding design make it a practical choice for appointments, shopping, family outings, and everyday activities.
Unlike smaller transport chairs that must be pushed by someone else, the So Lite C2 features large 20-inch rear wheels that allow users to propel themselves when they have the strength and mobility to do so. Caregiver hand brakes, wheel locks, and specially designed curb climbers add convenience when assistance is needed. With a 240-lb. weight capacity, removable rear wheels and leg rests, and non-marking tires suited to indoor floors and smooth paved surfaces, the So Lite C2 offers a thoughtful combination of portability, comfort, and everyday independence.
We chose the Journey So Lite C2 because it combines several practical features that make everyday mobility easier.
Lightweight and portable: A magnesium-alloy frame makes it easier to handle than many traditional steel wheelchairs.
Two ways to get around: Users can propel themselves when able, or enjoy outings with assistance from a family member or caregiver.
Easier transportation: The folding frame, removable rear wheels, and detachable footrests simplify storage and loading into a vehicle.
Thoughtful everyday features: Padded seating, flip-back armrests, caregiver hand brakes, and flat-free tires add convenience without unnecessary complications.
Good to Know: The So Lite C2 is best suited to indoor flooring and dry, reasonably level paved surfaces. It is not an all-terrain wheelchair and is not designed for soft grass, sand, steep slopes, or rough outdoor trails.
Lightweight Magnesium-Alloy Frame: Strong, lightweight construction helps make lifting and transporting the chair more manageable.
Self-Propelled or Companion-Assisted: Large 20-inch rear wheels allow users with sufficient arm strength to move themselves, while push handles make it easy for a companion to assist.
Compact Folding Design: Folds to approximately 13 inches wide, with removable rear wheels and footrests for more convenient storage and transportation.
Dual Braking Features: Caregiver-operated hand brakes and rear wheel locks provide additional control.
Flip-Back Armrests: Make side transfers easier and allow closer access to tables and desks.
Padded Seating: Cushioned seat, backrest, and armrests provide comfortable everyday support.
Flat-Free, Non-Marking Tires: Suitable for common indoor flooring and smooth paved surfaces without the maintenance of air-filled tires.
Curb-Climber Supports: Designed to help a caregiver maneuver over small curbs when following the manufacturer's operating instructions.
Removable Components: Rear wheels and footrests can be removed without tools for easier loading and storage.
Two Color Choices: Black with blue trim or black with red trim.

Can I move the So Lite C2 myself, or does someone need to push me?
Both options are possible. The 20-inch rear wheels allow users with sufficient upper-body strength and mobility to propel themselves. The chair also has push handles and caregiver hand brakes for assisted use.
Will the wheelchair fit in my car?
The So Lite C2 folds to approximately 13 inches wide and 29.5 inches high. The rear wheels and footrests can also be removed without tools. Since vehicle storage spaces vary, we recommend checking your trunk dimensions before purchasing.
Can the So Lite C2 be used outdoors?
Yes, on dry, reasonably level paved surfaces such as sidewalks and pathways. It is not intended for soft grass, sand, mud, steep slopes, or very uneven terrain.
Can it go up steps and curbs?
The curb-climber supports help a caregiver maneuver over certain small curbs when used correctly. The wheelchair is not designed for climbing stairs or using escalators. Always follow the owner's manual.
Can I take the So Lite C2 on an airplane?
Manual wheelchairs can generally accompany travelers on commercial flights, subject to the airline's procedures for mobility equipment. Contact your airline before traveling to arrange appropriate handling and storage. Do not assume the wheelchair will fit in an overhead compartment.
Is the So Lite C2 eligible for HSA or FSA purchases?
Journey lists the So Lite C2 as HSA/FSA eligible. Eligibility and documentation requirements may vary by account, so please check with your benefits administrator before purchasing.
