    As Ace says, there's no way I'd have that extra bit of metal and entanglement hazard on my back during the dive.

    To be honest, I'd be more inclined to go with a simple, fold away trolley with a couple of bungees... far cheaper, no risk or hazard durng the dive, and you can use the trolley for other things as well.

    You can toss this thing in the pile with some of the other gear that has FAILED.

    I got a nice sturdy dolly with all terrain wheels that I use to cart my doubles around ... I don't think it was more than $50?? Probably not as compact as the one pictured but it can also lay flat on four wheels if you like and of course it is just to cart gear and won't go underwater with me ... I agree, to many hooky things on that rig to be permanantly attached to the tanks.

    On the other hand, it looks nice and shiny with those custom painted cylinders.

    Jon, you are talking to your market right now!

    As a UK based operation, you may want to advertise your new product on some of the UK based forums as well (PM me for the details if you want them), see what their respone is. However I'm reasonably sure the response will be far less polite and far more vocal!!

    Sorry mate, but there are only a handful of times that wheels would even be viable... twins get carried up and down steps, across mud and stones, rocks, over transoms etc. And for those few occasions, what's the logic in adding on high grade engineered metal to your twins, when a simple foldable trolley would do just as well?

    I wish you luck with it, I think you're going to need it!
