Technically you're correct... And maybe I've called it wrong, but I didn't think so.
In the photos it looks to be the lead acid they used on the previous model (MK8), I have one - so that's how I know. Plus, if it was a new lightweight battery I'm 99.99% certain it would be mentioned in the sales blurb and description.

Am I going blind, I can't see where it mentions the battery in the description. I can see it comes with a battery and charger but no details on either. Have I just missed it?

They were probably tested in 'ideal conditions', you know, the sort that show those shopping trolley rear wheels actually work...hmm, I know we'll use those, they work perfectly on flat level concrete, if they can cope with that mud & grass won't be a problem... a brake you're having a laugh, all pitches are flat and level...but my friend...as a optional extra  ...bit like batteries.
There's a meme there somewhere...Mr Pitchers pushing the trolley easily through a field in a cloud in his head, then pan to reality......stuck solid not moving despite the biceps...stops to relax trolley runs away all by itself
Thoroughly tested in real world conditions  ...even car manufacturers disclaim that now

I'm just baffled that most barrows with back wheels don't have a brake. Have they (solar,fox etc) not realised it would be an issue or have they just completely ignored the problem and released them anyway
The mk2 versions will definitely have some type of brake with the added bonus that the price will jump up to something like £1200

So much for product development and extensive testing, I used to believe solar were the best of the companies producing gear for carp fishing. However since they got bigger and bigger and Lockie became less and less involved they seem to have become just another buy off the shelf from an oem in china and rebadge for hyper inflated prices in the UK.

Without being a smart arse (and also an early Barrow Buddies rear wheel kit user) I did mention the lack of swivelling rear wheel brake on previous threads with regards the Fox/Solar offerings . . .a few on my lake who have invested in the Solar are already shelling out for the latest adjustable width BBuddies bolt on . . .they are a 'must have' if you want to make the most out of a powered barrow IMO
