3.6. Fit and Seating
• Seatbelt
The GRIT Junior ships with a seatbelt included and attached to the seatpan. It may be tucked beneath
the seat cushion. We recommend riding with a seatbelt.
• Foot Straps
The footrest plate has slots to add your own foot straps. You may use these to secure your young rider’s
feet into the footrest. GRIT also has straps available for purchase.
• Leg Straps
Leg straps may be used to hold your young rider’s legs together, which can improve clearance for their
lever strokes. We recommend Neoprene straps, though Velcro also works well.
• Strap-Mounting Holes
The sides of the GRIT Junior seatpan have pre-drilled holes. These holes may be used to add additional
straps.
• A Note On Cushions
- The GRIT Junior ships with a wheelchair-style comfort cushion. The cushion is not a
pressure-relief cushion. Some riders choose to add their own cushions; please consult
with your physical or occupational therapist to see if this cushion is appropriate for you.
- All GRIT Junior models have a 12-inch seat depth. Velcro may be applied to the seatpan
to appropriately secure a third-party cushion.
