Road Carts

Road Carts (Up to 13H)
A cut above the “Show Pleasure” or “Easy Entry” carts in styling and incorporates a different spring system. Half elliptic attached crossways instead of 1 on each side which rides as well as a flexishaft Meadowbrook. No heavier duty springs needed for animals greater than 38″ to 44″. Seat deeper than our other two wheeled carts, but not as wide (28” long and 14” deep). Comes standard with Stationary seat that doesn’t fold down but has 4 adjustable settings, Carriage sits on a sliding track. You lift the seat about a half inch, then it slides. Although the cart is a little fancier than our other models, it is sturdy enough for everyday use on the trails and roads.
The Spares box is standard (inside measurement is 11″ deep x 8″ wide x 4″ high). Double bend shaft dip lower than standard shafts. It is a bit higher than our Show Pleasure or Meadowbrook cart so it takes a smaller wheel. Floor slats end around the axle. Can’t add fenders, folding or split seat – meant to be a side entry cart. Mini thru small pony size weighs ~112 lbs before options.

Built on a heavier pony frame with half-elliptic springs, heavier shafts, and floor slats for added strength and stability.
A step up in style from our Show Pleasure and Easy Entry carts, the Road Cart features a half-elliptic spring system. This design offers a smooth ride, similar to a flexishaft Meadowbrook.
The seat is deeper than our other two-wheeled carts (28″ long x 14″ deep), though slightly narrower. It comes standard with a stationary seat that doesn’t fold down but adjusts on a sliding track. Simply lift the seat about half an inch to adjust. While more refined in appearance, this cart is still rugged enough for daily use on trails and roads.
