what wheels do you use? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

bus kid · 08-01-2011, 09:07 PM

So I'm beginning to look into a new set of wheels. looking at the Hobie trax 2 cart, or the wheeleez beach cart. I currently have a Hobie Quest but with all the talk of a new PA coming in Sept. the darker side of the dark side my get a new member. Anyone have either, what are the pros / cons. I have been scouring the web for a month or so now and its time to turn to the "experts" to make my final decision. Anyone interisted in a group deal?

Can't have your bait tank installed if you used the Scupper wheel cart....

Sure you can. I do it all the time.I have a Tunataxi custom crate behind me and the bait tank behind that. The key is getting your hands on a crate, but the guy that makes them is very sketchy at best.

i have the hobie wheelez. i like them but the tire pressure doesn't keep very well. ericko bought the hobie trax one, i really like the wheels, but the width seems big to me, although ericko doesn't seem to mind.
one of the things that i like about the one that i have is i can fit it into the front hatch by taking off the wheels. the wheels have a quick release style hub so it is very convenient to do so.
hope that this was helpful.

Pretty sure Ryan means a Hobie tank as the fittings for it go down the scuppers.

I use the first ones. Got them at REI, waited for the 20% off coupon deal. They are great for la jolla (no 4WD here).
