GoKart users bag trouble

[hovis]

for the life of me i cant stop the bag support bracket from folding back down during use. I've tried different tension on the bag strap but it just keeps collapsing. any ideas?

Happens all the time to me as well especially going over bumpy ground. The GoKart is great and I wouldn't swap it for anything but this is the biggest weakness of the design IMO.

Do you use the standard GoKart bag or another brand? I think some bags are probably not well suited like my Titleist cart bag.

surely a simple latch or pin would have been a good idea

Can't say I ever had this happen, I use a Go Kart bag though.

I use a Powercaddy delux bag on my Gokart no problems at all.

I've recently bought a gokart and use a motocaddy dry series bag and have not had this happen.

I have a Callaway cart bag, had my GoKart for years and never had this problem? Are you resting it's base properly at the bottom and securing it with the bungee?

I bought one last week and only used it once but not issues with a tour bag.

happens occasionally to me, but it's normally due to the bag not being situated correctly,

Same for HiD :thup:

Have this very rarely, normally down to the bag not being on correctly or top strap too tight

Operator error I think.:thup:

Go Kart are big supporters of our H4H day and Sandy (The Boss) is always donating items to the cause
They have a very good reputation for customer service, so why not contact them and see if they can suggest something

Seriously it's not operator error.

I think some bags are just not well suited to the GoKart plus the bag rest or whatever it's called can wear so that it doesn't stay snapped into position.

Don't get me wrong the GoKart is a great bit of kit , sure the OP thinks so too but in some cases this bag rest does fail.

My Ping bag sits nicely and never had an issue. Happy with mine

I had the GoKart Automatic and used two trolley bags with one being the GoKart B3 and this was the only issue I ever faced with the trolley. For me was definitely a design fault rather than user error and I'm a big supporter of GoKart, customer service etc was second to none.

I've never had this problem and find it a little suprising to be honest, I have a gokart bag with auto handle

Dose your bag sit on the bracket with the top of bag higher or level or lower - if lower not surprising I suppose

I have a callaway bag on mine and have had it happen once in 6 months of having it and that was when the bag was not situated right at the bottom, it was sat on the little shelf that can keep it above by a couple of inch.
