  • Dear Go Kart Daddy,
    My boys painted and put together the Trail go kart we just received. Works great. It's the 1970's again on our street!
    Thanks again.
    Best regards,

  • Having built a go-kart using the kit you supplied my grandchildren have been having a great time using it.
    Kind regards,
    Ian Thomson

  • Thanks for the information, a great help. I built the cart for a friend (for his grandsons) and will be handing it over in the coming week. Just wanted to be sure I could guide him on the tyres. I will be sorry to loose the kart, it really is stunning with these wheels, no question!
    With best wishes
    George

  • I bought one of your kits some weeks ago and have built my own design of kart so that it could take more weight and thought that you might like these pics of the one I built for my grandsons.
    Kind regards Ian Scott.

    12" Green Wheels & Axle Set

    Absolute perfection - we bought four kits for the scouts to be able to make traditional soap box style carts (which they managed within an hour!). The kits are everything I hope for - strong enough to last and withstand rough treatment, forgiving on assembly choices, and safe. And GKD were great on delivery comms and reassurances when we wanted these in a hurry. Please support this excellent company!!

    12" Wheel & Bumper Axles + Dual Brake.
    Brilliantly made and the perfect gift!

    We bought this for our 11 year old boy for his birthday and although we don't usually splash out so much, we wanted to give him something that he would not expect and that brought some good old fashioned fun to him and his sisters. It absolutely ticked all the boxes. It is really well designed and made, and he and his dad had a great time putting it together. Those first rides were such a thrill and he really proud of it, keeping it clean and dry etc. In this world of technology, electronic toys and mind-numbing screens that so many children are presented with, this go-kart is such a traditional and appropriate antidote and we are completely thrilled with the design, build quality and function. Just fantastic.

    I have actually used these

    I have actually used these wheels on a promotional display for a very good brand, they worked very well.
    When i phoned to see if they had stock, the guy was very helpful, ordered it there and then. Items turned up two days later, very good service, very happy with the outcome.
    If i need to purchase wheels like this again, they will be my first port of call. Thanks you team.
