Wright Velke Large Frame Comfort Grip 61 FX730E
LIGHT. COMFORTABLE. PRODUCTIVE.
The Velke LC shares the HC’s rugged core and ergonomic features but introduces a wider-stance undercarriage, shifting the handlebar and engine deck assembly further back for enhanced control and balance—particularly on larger deck sizes. It also features larger caster wheels and sealed caster pivots for added durability and smoother operation. The “L”-shaped handlebar provides ample clearance for knees and feet, while inward-tilted grips protect hands from contact with obstacles. With its thoughtful design updates and robust build, the Velke LC offers a premium walk-behind experience for pros managing challenging terrain and larger properties.
