How do the wheels fare over asphalt and gravel?

I don't think it would be great on asphalt/gravel. It works great on flat cement, but I don't think the wheels will grip well on anything loose.

I ride about 15 mi per day on a mix of asphalt, concrete, and gravel and have no complaints about traction. Very good I'd say

It has pneumatic wheels so it should be pretty easy to use on gravel, although I haven't tried it. It is very easy to maneuver.

I've ridden it around the block and also over rough asphalt, and it is generally ok. I would say it's about the same capability as a skateboard or inline skates. If it's a bump that you wouldn't want to ride over with your skateboard or inline skates, it won't be easy with the Sbyke either. There's a possibility of changing the rear wheels to larger wheels to go over bumps better, but no one at Sbyke has answered my question about what's the largest wheel size it can accommodate, and whether a larger wheel will affect handling.Another potential issue when riding over sidewalks is if you cross sloping driveways, it takes some finesse to keep it under control and not let it steer downward the sloping driveway.

The tires are rubber rides easy over grass and concrete don't know about stones

I think it's actually an 84 they are very durable wheels and perfect for asphalt. I go through wheels like crazy but got these to teach my buddy how to play on tennis courts and they have been great.

I wouldn't recommend this kart for gravel. the wheels are hard plastic which enables it to drift easily but the gravel would chew them up really quickly, and i don't think you'd have much traction.

no it's not. I'm the same ht as you and you'll get use to it. It's really not that bad. I also did not have problem with the wheels like some ppl did here. We wheeled through gravel, rocks and dirt through parts of under construction area in our community. best purchase i've ever made for my puppy when she was injured.

I just love this cart. I am afraid that I can't answer your question because I have not run it over sand. I have gone through both rough and fine gravel without a problem and it can go through mud pretty well too.

I don't have it in front of me now, but I believe they are a hard rubber. My mother has taken it through all types of weather (we live in the Chicago area) and over cracked sidewalks, gravel, and grass. We've never had a problem with the wheels cracking, splitting or showing any damage whatsoever.

The wheels are rubber and it would travel over a gravel path easily. I love this cart. We have taken it to the beach and on picnics in the park and have never been disappointed in it's performance.

This wagon will roll over gravel easily. I have found it very helpful in moving my son's equipment, etc. from the parking lot to the ballfield at his games.

I haven't used it on gravel (yet), but I wouldn't hesitate to. For what it's worth, I run on grass fields and some sidewalks that are in pretty rough shape, and the suspension handles those conditions pretty well. BOB makes an off-road version of the fixed wheel Ironman (I believe it's called the Sport Utility stroller). As far as I can tell, it's a hybrid of the Ironman and the Revolution: Sturdy, heavy frame and knobby tires of the revolution; larger, permanently fixed front wheel and hand brake of the Ironman.

Yes. They are fine over gravel but yhey are air tires. Nails can puncture them. They come with a repair kit.

In my experience the tires are very durable, but they're also essentially slicks with no real gripping power. If the gravel is loose, traction on turns and hills could be a problem. Packed gravel or dirt should be fine... mud would be a problem, though.

It moves nicely over any terrain . I wouldn't take it over really deep soft sand though. Tires too narrow. A great folding cart though.

sorry, no wheels. it's very light without the weights on it. i just don't drive it on concrete or asphalt-- when i'm using it on the lawn, i drive in a pattern that avoids the need to do so. i suppose you could for a short distance but you'd ding up the tines.
