As Bobby said, they work great on grass. The only down side is they will not go through soft sand unless you have the momentum before you hit the soft
stuff to carry you through. I had them on the MG CrooZer and liked them alot. But not for soft sand.
They will make the ride on a dry lake bed much smoother also due to the larger diameter than the barrows.
If the wheels only came in 4" wide for some of the wider tires, would get rid of the bigfoots and enjoy the better ride.

Thanks Bob, does one just order them off their site? Obviously there would have to be a money conversion in there somewhere. Is shipping a killer?

I don't have enough interest in these wheels in the USA to buy large amount in bulk. If I get enough interest, I will stock some for the US kite
store retailer. They are about $105 a piece plus shipping from Europe. I got a few sets direct from the factory in China. The stock from this
last production run is still at the warehouse in China. I still have a second chance to place an order before it all gets shipped to France.
Shipping will be higher once they get to France.

Finally got around to making a seat for the speed buggy. Since DBBB 2012 is happening this week, I figure I get it out there. I took the orignial
Harley Davidson wheels off and put on the Sysmic ones that I just got.
To recap, this is the original HD wheels
these is the new look with the Sysmic rims and new deluxe seat
Matches my road bike .. yellow and black .. haha ..

That is my guess for the price based on what's on Chris' website. Aren't you able to purchase directly from the BuggyKiteShop website?
I am getting them from Chris for the US market so they can purchase from me with local shipping. I haven't gotten my retail pricing yet until I have
the final bill with shipping and custom charges.

Props to you Van! Sure ended up with a nice lookin setup Seat you made
looks well crafted.....still can't picture you in front of a sewing machine;-)
If you get ahold of any extra sets of those wheels I'd be interested, sounds pretty reasonable to me.

van have you tried the Harley rims yet? I'm wondering if they can handle the side pressure of dug in turns. On a bike the pressure is almost all on
the bottom and not the sides.

Jeff, I got one set for you if you are still interested.
