More Than Wheels: Jesi Stracham on Confidence, Style, and Spinergy

I got my first set of Spinergy wheels in 2017.

And let me tell you, I was disciplined for those wheels.

I budgeted my disability check for months just to afford them, because up until then I’d been rolling on those basic metal insurance wheels. Functional? Sure. Sexy? Absolutely not.

When my Spinergys arrived, everything changed.

I fell in love with the XSLX spoke pattern immediately; the way the spokes came together to form a star around the hub. My first set was all black: black spokes, black wheel, black hub. Black on black on black.

And the first time I put them on my chair?

It felt like slipping into my pre-injury black strappy stilettos.

Instant confidence. Instant swagger. Instant change in my push. 

For the first time in a long time… I felt like me again.

Since then, I’ve made my wheels part of my style.

Purple was my era up until this year.

When Spinergy dropped the matte like Cerakote colors, game over.

The rose gold TC pushrim/hub combo with the purple wheel? Done.

Then came the blue phase…because Charlotte FC is LIFE. 

And I even havethis bronze set with a cherry red hub for when I want to feel classy.

This is the thing people don’t understand until they experience it:

Spinergy wheels aren’t just an upgrade.

They’re an investment in YOU;

your confidence, your identity, and how you show up in the world.

A new set of wheels can change the way you roll…

But Spinergys?

They change the way you see yourself in the mirror.

And that added confidence as a wheelchair user?

Unmatched

That’s why I ride Spinergy Wheels.
