Clicgear Cart in the Closed Position

[Maxxthedog]

Hi All,
I am unable to carry my clubs anymore (back surgery) and an thinking about getting a Clicgear 3.0. I have read many posts about how small it fold up to, but they do not say if this is with the bag attached or not.
I golf one a week in a league and would like to leave the bag on the cart, fold it and put it in the trunk.
So, how does this cart fold with a bag attached?
I'm probably going to get out this weekend to see for myself, but thought I would ask the people that are using them day-to-day.
Lastly, anything else about this cart that I should know about? Quirks, the good, bad or ugly?
Thanks

I have the CLicgear 2.0. The 3.0 has a few upgrades (different lever styles, different brake, bigger console).The Clicgear will not fold with a bag attached. It actually folds into itself to take up less room. In folding into itself, the 2 areas where the bag is strapped in do not maintain their place and fold into the middle.

I love the cart, it folds small, is simple to fold and unfold once you do it a few times. The straps are great and the bag will not budge, but they are easy to get on and off. One of the quirks that I have run into, is that if you put towels up around the handle (on the towel hook loops), you will have to hold them out of the way when you fold. The other thing is that if you are not careful the first few times you fold it up it can be a finger pincher.

If I was buying one now, I would still get the 2.0. The 3.0 does not have enough to justify the $30-40 price difference. I do not need a bigger console and the other improvements seem minimal.

Thanks Josh,
I have a range finder, wallet and keys that I would put into the console, big enought for that I'm assuming?
I also will be using my Nike carrying bag, are most bags secure on it?
I'll take my bag with this weekend when I go shopping to make sure.

I too have the 2.0 edition and LOVE it! Console should easily hold what you mentioned. Currently, i have a stand bag on mine and it fits fine.

I had a Nike Extreme Sport Stand bag before my current one, and it rode well on the Clicgear in my opinion. As far as your contents, they might fit and they may not, but it is relatively spacious. I keep my wallet in there and the keys in my bag, as I hate the key rattle. One of the guys I play with kept his rangefinder in the console but got sick of opening it and closing it, so he put a retractable carabiner on the rangefinder and hooked it on one of the towel loops so it was always at the ready. I can see it working without the retractable part, just hook it on and go...

depends on the range finder.. my bushnell 1600 will certainly not fit into the console..
