Agree with the lift in out bag, so mine stays in. Can’t help but think how nice a drop in plastic box with a couple of draws would be.

Have been using my explorer deluxe for over a year now. Fish mostly 24-48hr sessions. Manage to get all my tackle and cooking gear into. 4 x standard storage bags underneath and use a low level cooler for food etc. I find the barrow the perfect size for the amount of gear I take (brolly, 3 rod bag, bed with bag inside, Fox easy mat, 2 x buckets,5 ltr water, low level cooler).
Like others I have made a couple of mods
1. changed wheel for carp porter puncture proof
2. Swapped the handles for the braced mk2 carp porters, absolute revelation. Makes the barrow much easier to bush for someone of my height than standard handles (5ft9).
Only bad points, the lift in/out bag on the deluxe has a front pocket for a rain cover which in itself is a good thing but it makes it near impossible to lift the bag out when full. Only other bad point is slight wheel rub on the bag but I think this is because the puncture proof wheel is slightly larger than the standard fox.
Before this barrow I had a mk2 puncture proof, of the 2 in standard form I would prob favour the mk2 purely down to personally finding it easier to push around, that said now the Fox has the mk2 handles on I would take that all day long, not quite as good pushing position but the storage space and compactness makes up for it

Comes with the avid transit really don’t get the whole fox barrow thing just seems to be an utter con for a barrow that costs a fortune. Crack on lads spend your money wisely.

I use a Nash small hold-all with the shoulder strap adjusted right down and slipped over the bar. At the weekends I attach a Sabre cool bag the same way which sits nicely on top of it.
I’m too tight to buy the proper fitted bags

There's one on Ebay for £50 at the moment, he's called it a Chub Medium "Bartow bag" though...
