elmoputney Posted April 5, 2019 Report Posted April 5, 2019 I used to have a MK2 carp porter in the good old days, couldn't fault it really never gave me any problems and I thought it handled well and never tipped for me I think the extra wheels would make it more stable , still really wishing I hadn't sold it tbh would be nice to still have it Quote
carpyian Posted April 5, 2019 Author Report Posted April 5, 2019 ive got a mk2 fat boy so might invest in the extra wheels Quote
smufter Posted April 7, 2019 Report Posted April 7, 2019 I watched a fella using a 3 wheel barrow on my lake the other week trying to negotiate a bridge. One of the funniest things I've seen in ages. I'l stick with one thanks 😁 elmoputney and commonly 1 1 Quote

dayvid Posted April 7, 2019 Report Posted April 7, 2019 Unless your pushing on flat ground the three wheels create more drag , if you push all the weigh forward it sort of defeats the object and can make it more unstable . Now if you have a powered barrow thats a different ball game all together, it all works extremely well, Just my experiences with barrows and it inevitably lead to a powered barrow. Quote

I never really had an issue with one wheel though as long as it was loaded ok it would behave fairly well Quote
