hi,

i have a preston on box X5 and ive been lugging it around lately (only bad thing about this box i think is its weight), so i have purchased an on box trolley....the thing is i think this trolley is made for the old on box series not the X series as im having trouble fitting the box onto the trolley...has anyone else got a on box X series and using the on box troley with any success???

my bro has got the new Preston trolley and he has the X series box i will ask him if he has got the same problem with it. i know it a Preston trolley but it may not be the one you got but i will ask him anyway he got it two weeks a go....

I had the same problem with my x3 box the problem is the original trolley had a slide down bar that slid down and locked in the groove of the seat, the problem is the x range now has a gel seat with no grove so the bar cuts into the seat. Preston did bring out a trolley kit but this was poor and caused the legs on my platform to break off due to the design, give that a miss go buy a space station shuttle, yes it is designed for the space station but will fit all x series boxes.

What did you do in the end ? - I've got a X box & was going to get the on-box trolley, I can see it's designed for the seat with the groove in but didn't think the new seat would be a problem..... you've got me wondering if it's a good idea now though.....

actually it does fit fine, i just didnt pull the footplate out far enough, get the trolley it is fine.
