What Freedom Trax does

Freedom Trax, operated as a product line under Tour Engineering, designs and manufactures motorized off-road track attachments for manual wheelchairs. Founded and operated by Erin and Dan Livingston in Golden, Colorado, the company produces two core hardware products: the FT 1 PRO ($7,999), which mounts tracks underneath the wheelchair seat for a narrow profile fitting standard doorways, and the FTX Extreme Model ($7,799, launched 2025), which mounts tracks outside the rear wheels for increased stability and breaks down into three parts for transport. Both models use tank-inspired track technology powered by a 24V lithium-ion battery with dual 24V motors, controlled via handheld joystick with 360-degree turning, achieving 4-5 mph top speed and up to 8 miles of range per charge. The four-point connection mounting system attaches beneath the user's existing manual wheelchair without requiring transfer or a second chair. All products are designed, developed, and built in-house at the Golden, Colorado facility.

The business operates as a direct-to-consumer e-commerce retailer selling through freedomtrax.com, supplemented by phone and email sales channels. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time hardware sales ($7,799-$7,999 per unit) plus accessories such as backup batteries ($990) and custom color options ($200-$250). To lower the purchase barrier, the company integrates third-party financing (Affirm, Klarna, Woo Pay) and maintains an ecosystem of grant and fundraising partnerships, including SupportNow (Official Family Support Platform), Kelly Brush Foundation, HelpHopeLive, and an internal Freedom Trax Grant program. Shipping extends across the US, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Customers are exclusively individual consumers — wheelchair users, adaptive athletes, families with pediatric wheelchair users, and active-lifestyle buyers — with no enterprise or institutional sales channel. Marketing relies on organic social media (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube), community events like the PossAbilities Expo, and earned media including the 2025 Colorado Manufacturing Month Proclamation.

The company is privately held and bootstrapped, with 1-10 employees, no disclosed external funding, and no revenue disclosure. Ownership and control are concentrated in the founding Livingston family through Tour Engineering, the parent entity.

Core offering

Freedom Trax designs, manufactures, and sells motorized, tank-inspired track-system attachments that convert manual wheelchairs into off-road vehicles without requiring user transfer. Its flagship products, the FT 1 PRO (under-seat track design) and the FTX Extreme Model (outside-wheel track design), are joystick-controlled, powered by a 24V lithium-ion battery, and rated for sand, snow, gravel, mud, and trails. The company also sells an FT Backup Battery accessory for extended range.

Product overview

Freedom Trax offers a portfolio of portable, motorized track systems that transform manual wheelchairs into rugged off-road vehicles. The core products consist of two main models: the FT 1 PRO (the original model with tracks positioned underneath the seat for a narrower profile) and the FTX – Freedom Trax Extreme Model (a newer variant with tracks mounted outside the rear wheels for enhanced stability). Both models feature joystick-controlled 360° navigation, 4–5 mph top speed, and up to 8-mile range per charge. The product line is complemented by the FT Backup Battery accessory for extended range. All products are manufactured in Golden, Colorado, USA, and are designed for independent mounting by users without transfers from their existing manual wheelchairs.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Permobil: Permobil is a global manufacturer of power wheelchairs, including active and outdoor-capable models. It is a broad incumbent serving the same wheelchair-user market with overlapping off-road / everyday mobility needs, but at much greater scale and via a full-chair (not attachment) model.
• Sunrise Medical (Quickie): Sunrise Medical, parent of the Quickie brand, is one of the largest wheelchair manufacturers globally, including rigid active and pediatric models compatible with Freedom Trax. It operates broadly in the mobility market with which Freedom Trax's customer base overlaps, but does not offer a comparable track attachment.
• Invacare: Invacare is a large durable medical equipment manufacturer with a deep power and manual wheelchair portfolio. It serves many of the same end users and clinical/insurance channels as Freedom Trax, making it relevant for distribution, reimbursement, or competitive overlap.
• Ottobock: Ottobock is a global leader in prosthetics, orthotics, and mobility solutions including wheelchairs. It is comparable as a broad DME incumbent in the rehabilitation/mobility space, with potential to enter or bundle off-road capability similar to Freedom Trax.
• Quantum Rehab: Quantum Rehab makes complex rehab power wheelchairs with advanced drive controls and outdoor-capable configurations. It serves the same mobility-impaired customer base and competes indirectly by offering integrated (rather than attached) off-road-capable solutions.

Direct peers

• Action Trackchair: Action Trackchair manufactures track-based all-terrain power wheelchairs for off-road and outdoor use. It is the closest direct competitor to Freedom Trax, targeting the same wheelchair-user need for sand/snow/trail access, though it typically sells complete chairs rather than attachments.
• GRIT (Leveraged Freedom Chair): GRIT builds lever-driven, all-terrain wheelchairs designed for rough outdoor environments in developing markets and beyond. It is directly comparable because it serves the same off-road wheelchair user use case (trails, uneven terrain), with a different drive mechanism.
• Magic Mobility: Magic Mobility produces extreme-terrain and all-terrain power wheelchairs. It directly competes for the same end user (manual or power chair users wanting off-road capability) with higher-performance integrated powerchairs rather than attachments.
• Tankchair: Tankchair builds tank-track-based powered and manual wheelchairs for off-road and rough-terrain mobility. It is directly comparable to Freedom Trax as it offers a similar tank-inspired track solution, though typically on full chairs.
• Outrider USA: Outrider USA designs and builds hand-controlled, all-electric off-road vehicles that can be used on trails and rough terrain by people with mobility limitations. It is directly comparable to Freedom Trax because it targets active, off-road wheelchair users with alternative vehicle platforms.
