errrm forgive me but how do you clean your clubs?
If your not detaching the bag from the trolley that means you must lift in and out the entire contraption and wheel it in and out of the house.
Or do you pull all the clubs out and leave the bag and trolley in the car?

I have the gokart, great bit of kit and well designed.
It's spectacular quick to fold and unfold, two quick presses and both wheels pop off.
The battery itself, pops out with no fiddling with wires as most of the other models.
If need be yes you can get some small wires and attach them to the battery and leave it attached to the trolley (If you ring gokart they'll be delighted to tell you how to do it know doubt)

Just to conclude this thread.

Thank you all for your kind contributions.

I clean my own & my wifes clubs every day. After my wife has lifted them out of the Land Rover I just wheel the bag & trolley into the garage and take the clubs out of the bag, put the clubs into a bucket of water and scrub them with a brush. Unlike the practice balls they will not fit into the dishwasher.

When I saw my first electric trolley about 30 years ago I assumed the owner had modified his manual trolley in his workshop. The outfit looked decidedly Heath Robinson. Many trolleys do not seem to have moved on from this original crude design.

As a result of this thread I have been made aware of 2 trolleys specifically designed as electric golf trolleys, the Go Kart circa £250 and the German stainless steel trolley circa £2,500. My budget is very much more within the Go Kart range which I now have on order. Having initially ruled out the Go Kart due to not been able to charge the battery without dismantling the bag/trolley I reopened correspondence with them to see if this problem could be overcome. It seems they did not initially fully comprehend my circumstances and confirmed they were able to perform a simple FOC modification to accommodate my requirements. Along with other peoples experiences on this forum I have found them to be most helpful. One lucky contributer to this thread will find their Go Kart account favoured with £5 on the Go Kart breeding programme. I would highly recommend anyone considering purchasing a new electric trolley should without any hesitation purchase a Go Kart and be sure to make them aware it was me who recommended a Go Kart to you.

Number of times "Go Kart" is mentioned in this post = 8

Can anyone beat that?
