Yup, I spoke with Michelle from Stein USA today and have one on reserve.
I do know that if you want one of the first shipments, get it now as I'm not sure how many have come over from the UK.

My prayers have been answered.
That's all kindsa smart.
Could see moving some big/long logs with the mini in yards. Where I would not want to skid them when I can only pick up one end.
I see a cooler and barbecue attachment.

$795. I got an e-mail today. If I hadn't had so many truck repairs, I'd get one now.

Looks great but a little pricey. A heavy duty dolly from Home Depot runs about 80.00 and has a 800# axle. Weld some removable arms on it and your good to go. I'm sure the stein option is more versatile but not at that cost.

I like that it is 30" wide, has 16" wheels, pivots on the frame, and breaks down. You don't or can't always take the mini skid with you. I can see that on top of my BC2000. My log dolly sits in my lot 99 percent of the time anymore. Takes up too much space.

People used to think the same thing about the GRCS, but that piece of equipment proved it’s worth in short order.
There is no cart anywhere that is available to the tree worker that has been engineered by a tree worker besides the Arbor Trolley. Nothing that Home Depot or any other store has can compare. Reg has spent years working in tight quarters and knew what he was after when he designed the cart.
I’ll be picking mine up tomorrow afternoon and using it this Friday….pictures forthcoming. Since I don’t own a mini, this piece of equipment will see a lot of use for sure.

For those who think it can be compared to a regular dolly, see the video (if you haven't already).

fyi 500 kilos equals a little over 1100 lbs. looks like you could load it with brush with the 4 prongs installed, then get to the chipper and tip the unit over and pull out the prongs and slide the unit sideways to dump?
question....my one ton pick up truck has 16" wheels. did you say this has 16" wheels. they look smaller than that.

I have to agree. There is no bigger fan of Reg than I but 3-4 hundred might be more appropriate.
850.00 or so after shipping?
WOW!
Ya build your own.
I heard its been done.
