2 wheel caster Bullrider for larger areas & Velke singles for smaller turf areas.

Velkie good.

The only one I've used it the 2-wheel Velkie...and I love it. So, there's 1 testimonial for ya.

Kinda like you'd think that breast feeding a baby is simple and natural for a mother (but parents know that's not the case) - a Velkie/Sulky also takes some practice and skill to get used to. But it's worth it, ask the baby.

The best velkie advice I got from this forum: Don't use the handles of the mower to "hold on". Balance with your legs, and continue to control the mower with your fingertips.

I use the 1 wheel velkie. My only gripe with the 2 wheel velkiex2 is the constant twisting it does. Kinda like the wheels are struggleing to keep up with each other. I have a velkie x2 with larger zero flat tires for sale if anyones interested let me know.

If you are using a 2-wheel, please use a castering type like the Bullrider in the link provided above & not a 2 fixed wheel velke type.

I just purchased and used for the first time a sulky from Jungle Jims. It took some getting use to, but at the end of the day I wouldn't give it up for anything
