I have a Carp Porter Streamline Mk2 purchased in 2018.
Does anyone on here know if i can replace the standard front bar i have at the moment with the deluxe front bar?

I have tried to contact Prestige by email but as of yet have not had a response.

Try giving em a call mate, that's assuming they're in. I'm local to their warehouse and have called and subsequently visited a couple of times.

I have a MK2 2018 Puncture Proof Barrow. I bought the Delux Bar only last week from JR and it does not fit my barrow. I think its for the Tri Porter Barrows, thats what it says in the description anyway, having said that I gave it to a friend and it fits his MK2 Fat Boy Barrow? The Delux Bar is to thick and wont fit into the connection points on my barrow. The interior diameter of my front upright is 17mm, I think you would need about 20mm for the Deluxe Bar to fit in.

Thanks for letting me know that.
I've just measured the front bar on my mk2 barrow and and it's approximately 15.5mm square tube and fits into the female tube section which will accommodate around 17mm.
Sounds the same as yours?
So looks like it doesn't fit.

I did get a message back from Allen at Prestige who said "it should fit but there are two different sizes of tube they use, and if it doesn't fit just send it back for a refund".

That didn't inspire me with confidence to be honest, as i thought they would be able to give me a definitive answer.
And i don't want to be sending stuff back in the post anyway.

So it's probably best that i forget that idea now.
Thanks for everyone's help.

I am only after getting off the phone with them. They were very helpful. They are sending out new uprights that will fit the deluxe front bar and at no cost which is very nice of them.
