My ageing Rovik trolley packed in recently on an away outing. Felt I had to buy a replacement in the proshop. Only one they had was a Motocaddy QB2.
At first this seemed fine, but quite soon after use I noticed a problem. The trolley has a design feature that the top of the golf bag sits on a pillar that is designed to move. If the top straps are not exactly perpendicular with the pillar, the pillar is dragged down quite quickly once the trolley is in motion, which not only makes club retrieval difficult, but also damages the golf bag. By moving the straps to the top of the bag, the movement of the pillar is lessened somewhat, but it still rides down after a while. If the golf bag has a perfectly square top, it probably would not be a problem, but my Hippo bag has a 'cutaway' top, like many bags, so the trolley is not really fit for purpose.
I contacted them, and they were going to send out a box to return the unit for testing, but I am 100% sure that the trolley is not faulty, just a very poor design.
I wont be buying any more Motocaddy product.
(Tried uploading pictures, but they are all too large).
