Garbolino Rear Wheel Kit Gold Seatbox

Garbolino Rear Wheel Kit Gold Seatbox

Turn your seatbox into a high-performance transport system with the Garbolino Rear Wheel Kit, specifically engineered for the Gold range of seatboxes. At Gerry’s Fishing, we know that the “yomp” from the car park to a distant peg can be the most grueling part of the day. This kit eliminates the back-breaking lifting, allowing you to glide over rough terrain with all your gear securely loaded.

Designed to integrate perfectly with the GBC chassis of the Garbolino Gold series, this wheel kit is all about stability and ease of use. Unlike universal kits that often wobble or slip, this rear-mounted system locks firmly into place, providing a wide wheelbase that prevents the box from tipping, even when loaded with heavy bait buckets and rod holdalls.

The wheels themselves are large-diameter and puncture-proof, featuring a deep tread pattern that grips on muddy banks and rolls effortlessly over gravel paths. The “rear” configuration is designed to work in tandem with a front handle (sold separately or as part of a full kit), effectively turning your seatbox into a balanced barrow where the weight is centered over the axle.

Detailed Specifications

Where to Use

• Large Commercial Complexes: When you’re drawn at the far end of the lake and have a 15-minute walk ahead of you, this kit turns a struggle into a stroll.

• Natural River Banks: Ideal for navigating uneven, grassy towpaths or slightly muddy tracks where standard small wheels would bog down.

• Tarmac and Gravel Paths: The smooth-rolling bearings and puncture-proof tires make light work of hard surfaces, reducing the noise and vibration that can disturb other anglers.

• Heavy Load Transport: Use it when you need to carry not just your box, but also a secondary carryall, net bag, and bait buckets stacked on top.

Pro Tip

Gerry’s Pro Tip: When loading your box for transport, place your heaviest items (like groundbait buckets or lead bags) directly over the rear wheels. This centers the center of gravity over the axle, making the front of the box feel much lighter when you lift the handle. Also, a quick spray of PTFE or silicone lubricant on the axle pins once a month will ensure they never seize up after a rainy session.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these wheels fit the Garbolino Silver or Blue ranges?

While specifically optimized for the Gold series 36mm GBC chassis, they will fit other Garbolino boxes with 36mm legs. However, always check your specific frame clearance to ensure the brackets have enough room to lock securely.

Are the tires pneumatic (air-filled)?

No, these are high-grade puncture-proof tires. This is a massive advantage for anglers as it means you’ll never find yourself with a flat tire halfway to your peg, and you don’t need to carry a pump.

Do I need to remove the wheels to fish?

Yes, for maximum stability while fishing, we recommend removing the wheel arms once you reach your peg. The quick-release system is designed so you can pop them off in seconds and tuck them under your side tray or behind your box.

Can I buy just the wheels if I lose one?

Garbolino products are modular, and we can often source replacement components. However, this kit is sold as a pair of wheels and the associated axle/bracket assembly to ensure everything is perfectly aligned.
