I live in Europe and have had this cart for4 months now,after about 4 weeks the solid tyres started to disintegrate very badly I got in touch with clicgear Europe and within 4 days they sent me a complete set of wheels(all three)the enclosed letter said that they had been redisinged since my purchase,having said that I have no other problems at all with this pushcart it runs freely maybe a bit stiff uphill but that is only to be expected on hilly ground ,it feels great on most surfaces and of course I don’t take it into the rough why would you?? in general this cart is excellent quality for the money and I am seeing more and more of them around the course,sturdy well built and looks great if you choose the right colour

Thanks for the feedback Doug. My wife has actually been using the Clicgear 2.0 for the past couple months, and she really loves it.

I really only found it a little difficult to push over wet grass, at least when compared to a cart with narrow tires. Certainly nothing like the old 2 wheel pull carts!

The cart certainly does get a lot of comments in the neon green color. Every round it seems someone approaches us and asks us about the cart.

I have owned the Clicgear 2.0 for about a month now, and I think it is very easy to push ( it seems to glide along on level ground). Folding & unfolding is a snap once you get the hang of it. I especially like the compactness of it when it is folded. The only dislike that I’ve found so far is with the wider front tire, it is not that easy to make left or right turns.

I need to replace the elastic straps that hold the bag in place. Does anyone sell replacements? Otherwise I’ll have to innovate something with regular bungie cords.

Thanks,

Paul

I own the clicgear 2.0.
Likes:
ease of bringing it from compacted state to fully ready in seconds. The storage areas are excellent and with the magnetic closure is awesome.
The adjustable handle ensures the iron heads do not clank against the frame.
The overall feel of this thing is substantial..i would not be suprised to have it last a lifetime.

Dislikes:
The tires. They claim to have changed from a thinner tire to a wide airless one. I buy the airless thing so no pump needed, but the bag boy and others have airless but more of a bicycle shape. The fact that this tires are so big and wide results in a very hard to push cart.

I read every review before i bought it, on various sites and only one site made mention of difficulty pushing it….it was this site. So i give props to the author for honesty.
It is not just wet conditions like mentioned..it is all conditions. I reach hills and begin pushing and feel a huge effort to do so.
I have had other people try it and they smile when it is on a cart path then the smile disappears as the push on grass. Once they hit a hill, they give it back to me with a grumpy look.

I frankly am still reasonably young, i am 42 and i am a big guy so i just don’t get the comments from those that say it is easy even in wet grass.
It is not.
Could i do it over i never would buy it. I absolutely love the shape, the foam handle, the substantial solid feel, the umbrella mount the storage etc.

but…and i ask but?…why do we buy a push cart? to have effortless movement of our bag and clubs. That is why we give up carrying. So exactly why should giving up walking still involve such an effort. had it just been me i would write off my opinion, but others who i know who tried mine and others who own theirs, have made the same comments.

I am severely disappointed to the point that i may sell it as it is popular at least i can get back most of my money, then buy something like the bag mentioned above.

Another positive development: I recently replaced my unsatisfactory bag with a Grom by Ogio. It fits the Clicgear very nicely; the bottom bracket of the cart reaches past the extender foot (for the bag legs) and makes very secure, stable contact with the bottom of the bag. There’s no wobble or tendency for the legs to try to extend. The only imperfection is the top mounting strap interferes with attaching the Grom’s rain hood; you have to settle for attaching the snaps around the carry handle of the bag and just stretch the hood around in back. It seems to work fine that way, but I figured I’d mention it.

I took my Clicgear 2.0 cart out for its maiden round yesterday, on a hilly course while it rained for the first few holes. Rolling resistance was almost zero, even over thick wet roughs and all sorts of other wet terrain. I can’t imagine the Bag Boy could be much better, the Clicgear’s performace was absolutely superb in wet conditions. As a bonus, the console–while not technically waterproof–was tight enough that I had no qualms about storing my cell phone there during light rain.

Sean:
I’m glad I just ran across your review or Bag Boy 600 and the Clicgear model. I have seen the Clicgear cart up close and it did seem overwhelming in size, especially since I’m used to an old Wilson Stow Away. I feel I will spring for the Bag Boy judging from your comments. Hopefully it will hold up as well as the Wilson I know have. I walk about 30-40 rounds with it per season and have had it for at least 8 or 9 years now.

Sean,

Based upon my own observation, and your review and comments I have decided to get the BagBoy 600. After using it for several rounds, the cart is so easy to push in all kinds of terrain even tall wet grass and it makes walking a dream.

Thanks again.

Hah…you could just hold onto the spokes and rotate the tire. You wouldn’t need to touch the ‘goose infected’ area!
