No mate... your mate failed to read the instruction manual and you came on a forum to slate a product your mate misused therefore your opinion means jack about the product.

No brand loyalty here the Carp Porter is more powerful yes but that comes at the cost of it being heavier and no where near as compact and the setup and disassemble is lot longer than the Nash metro.

You already said your friend takes the same as you and your gears weight is more than 100kg, so you saying the Nash metro can't climb hills & is for canals is wrong 😑 when you've only seen it used over the stated capacity.

We fish a lake on are club that is one continuous steep hill about 1.5miles to the lake both barrows performed perfectly with it.

The carp Porter is defo not steel and if I'm wrong it the thinnest walled steel (cheapest) they could get their hands on maybe the rust is from the bolts and steel parts like the wheel assembly... ?

10L of water = 10kg... what crazy water are you taking with you

It's rated to 100kg its written on the box it's comes packaged in (metro barrow)

I've already outlined who would choose the Nash over the Carp Porter...
Nash metro = fox explorer type angler who has streamlined their gear
Carp Porter = kitchen sink / crazy physics breaking water hauls

If your mate takes the same as you that's why the Nash barrow wouldn't move it's rated to 100kg...

It's not a sh*t barrow it's just not for guys who haul 20L of water around, one huge flaw with the Carp Porter is the frame it's sh*t paper thin aluminium that will bend if your barrow falls over. (Happened to my old man first outing)

I can take all my gear + 10L of water + 10kg of bait and still not reach 100kg no idea why your gear is so heavy did you used to carry 20L of water before you got the power barrow?

I'm in a privileged position with this question my old man owns the big boy and my brother owns the Nash metro...

If your the type to take everything and the kitchen sink get the big boy, it won't struggle at all with hills even with two people worth of gear on it.

If you want a power barrow with a footprint and pack down size akin to the fox explorer barrow get the Nash metro it can cope with hills just fine with 1 persons worth of gear.

If I was to buy one myself after seeing both I would purchase the Nash metro due to it being just as compact as my fox explorer.

Salmigo from bacarelexpress on its own in summer or thinned down with vodka or another spirit in winter

Your right If you snap off with any leader (other than loose fit rig tubing) on any lead setup other than a helicopter setup (with the lead set to not drop off) then effectively you actual rig length is from the end of your leader to the hook.

Never thought of it like that I'll be changing to rig tubing or naked only from now on

Trakker 150 145cm (H) x 315cm (W) x 255cm (D)

Frontier XD 165cm (H) x 270cm (W) x 210 (D)

The 255cm depth on the trakker is that measured from the middle bar? Be more of a fair comparison to measure from the bars at the side of the bivvy because that triangle shaped back on the tempest is dead space unless you invested in a oval bedchair.

Frontier XD it's cheaper, larger & around 2kg lighter than the trakker 150
