Any bets on what the next delay will be?

Perhaps they'll run out of air for the tyres

I'll embed the video in here.

Well done to Korda / Carp Porter for getting that communication out...
It's almost as though they've read this thread, they seem to have answered ALL the questions posed below

I see from their Facebook page that there's a new "update email" going out tonight to waiting customers.

I'd be grateful if anyone gets a copy, if they could post its contents here... As it seems not all customers are on this magic email list (including me!)

Many thanks!

i 100% agree on the power porters, thinking of getting a nash one ,ive been running on lifepo4 batteries for about 4 years now,and ive had deans rear wheels for over a year. i heard a rumor that korda/carp porter are bringing out a hub motor, nut obvously very hush hush.

Never had a Power Porter (still own a 'manual' Porter Lite) but if they're still running a separate wheel motor (big bulky item strapped to side of front wheel) rather than a hub motor I'd steer clear anyway as its 'old tech' . . .

I've had a play with the Power Fox (in a tackle shop) and tbf I wouldn't bother - the fittings are poor (flimsy thumbscrews that can be easily lost) and the barrow itself is oversized and heavy. The only saving grace is you can charge barrow without having to remove batteries etc . . . .Solar looks waay better IMO however not sure swivelling rear wheels without brakes are a good idea.

I've had a Gash power Metro for over 3yrs that I've pimped and its faultless - if you want bigger just buy an Evo second hand, swop out the batteries to Lithium, buy a swivelling rear wheel kit from Barrow buddies and you'll have all the barrow you'll ever need . . . . . .IMO
