The wheelchair also includes a limiter configured to restrict movement of the front wheel (46) relative to the drive wheel axis (A2) in an engaged configuration and not restrict movement of the front wheel (46) relative to the drive wheel axis (A2) in a disengaged configuration, the limiter being transitionable from the disengaged configuration to the engaged configuration when the front wheel (46) is in a first position relative to the drive wheel axis (A2) and prevented from transitioning from the disengaged configuration to the engaged configuration when the front wheel is in a second position relative to the drive wheel axis (A2). 3 Mirrh 90204/26 toto H C V, - t mCi
