A frame member for a frame of a personal conveyance (1), e.g. a wheelchair, includes an elongated section (45,46). The elongated section (45,46) is arranged to engage a further member (43,44) in a telescoping relation at a first end of the frame member. The frame member widens at a second, opposite end, into an end part including a saddle (58,59) for receiving a further frame member (9,10) at a predominantly transverse orientation to the elongated section (45,46).
