If you're looking for an affordable 2-in-1 walker that doubles as a wheelchair, the Uplivin Gavo could be for you.
The Gavo meets standards for both a walker and a wheelchair. (This and the Rollz Motion series walker wheelchairs are the only ones that do, that we know of).
Features:
- Walker and wheelchair. Walk as far as you like and, when you get tired, easily switch to wheelchair mode for your mate to steer, so you can enjoy your outing without the need to stop.
- Adjustable handle angle with pull-pin system. Move the handles back for wheelchair mode, or more upright for walker mode.
- Comes with bag and back rest. Other accessories can be added like the cane holder, light, drink holder or seat belt.
- Stylish look with oxidized finish and PU leather for the bag and backrest.
- Designer mobility on a budget. Uplivin is Locomo’s mid-range product, that combines affordability with aesthetic design. Uplivin has covered the fundamentals well and included the accessories to make it easy. No fuss and straight up, but with the consideration of functional design that makes it easy to use. We think, in this price range, you won’t get better value.

- We endeavour to dispatch from our warehouse in Christchurch within one to two working days after receiving payment.
- Delivery times after we dispatch vary depending on destination.
- We do not offer free shipping because the cost of freight varies depending on where the item will be sent. We think it is fairer to keep the price as low as we can and add freight costs that reflect the actual cost of freight rather than inflate the price to subsidise the shipments to the more costly areas.
- To find out your freight costs, simply place the item in your cart and add your address, then the online shop will calculate it for you.
- For more information, please read our Shipping Policy.
- We hope your walker is right for you but if you want to return it, please read our Returns Policy.
- While you can always buy directly from us on this website and we will ship it to your door directly from our warehouse in Christchurch, you might be in lucky enough to live near one of our fabulous stockists.
- Many of our customers understandably want to 'try before they buy' and some prefer to have a local contact, should they ever need help with servicing.
- Please see our growing list of retailers on our website's Stockists page.
- If your local mobility store does not stock our products, please let them know that you would like to see one and they may be able to arrange this with us.
WALKER & WHEELCHAIR
See more and do more, and enjoy your outing without the need to stop. Easily shift between rollator and wheelchair. Just swivel the footrests around, flip over the backrest and adjust the handles. The Gavo means you can walk as far as you like and, when a rest is needed, you can easily switch to wheelchair mode for your mate to steer.
ADJUSTABLE HANDLES
The smart handle design helps the person pushing by giving them more leverage - just use the pull-pin to move them back for wheelchair mode, or more upright for walker mode. The handles are also height adjustable.
COMES WITH BAG AND BACKREST
The stylish PU-leather bag and backrest in included. This synthetic material is lighter, smoother, easier to clean than genuine leather and free from using animal products. Plus you don’t need to assemble this, it arrives ready to go. Other accessories can be added like the cane holder, light, drink holder or seat belt.

FAQs - Uplivin Gavo
A: the Gavo comes with the bag and backrest. It comes fully assembled.
A: Two sizes, small and regular. The main difference is the seat width: the Gavo Small model features a narrower 40cm wide seat, whereas the Regular Gavo has a 45cm seat width.
A: Uplivin have ensured a nice and robust oxidised finish in painted to the frame (crafted with the same process as MacBooks). While it’s pretty hardy, you can also get a colour-matched paint pen
as an accessory to keep it looking sharp.
A: Yes, it has been certified by an international independent testing body, SGS to meet the ISO standard for rollators (11199-2:2005), and manually propelled wheelchairs (7176-8: 2014). These tests and standards have been reviewed and confirmed by Australasia’s leading testing body, NovitaTech. We don’t want to boast, but most other combo walker/wheelchairs do not meet both the standards. So, with that in mind, if you’re looking at other models, check that it meets these walker AND wheelchair standards.
As far as we know, only the Uplivin Gavo and Rollz Motion 2-in-1 walker wheelchairs meet both standards.
