Saddlechariot BB
The saddlechariot BB is made of mild steel galvanized which protects the metal inside and out, giving it long life, with an aluminium treadplate floor.
It has a low point of gravity making it stable over all surfaces, with a width of 95cm with a ground clearance of 17cm, it will fit through all legal gates on footpaths and bridlepaths, giving you access to a wide variety of areas.
It has a unique quick release system, allowing you to release the pony/horse from the vehicle at any speed, but you must step off.
We advise the safety strap is around your wrist or body, there is no need to pull the safety strap once you have stepped off.
It is a truly fun vehicle but with an addition of a tow hitch on the back allowing you to pull many implements e.g trailer, chain harrow or roller.
The vehicle will pull considerable weight but the pony/horse needs to be fit and a suitable size for the weight being pulled.
They are all manufactured in our workshop to a high standard. They all have common component parts but we assemble them to suit your pony/horse.
They will fit pony/horse 33" upwards.
Prices are as followed: 33" - 10.3hh £1370
11hh and over £1520
theses prices include harness( all you need is bridle and reins), plus delivery, but you are always welcome to collect from us. Contact us for delivery costs.
Any special requirements or things you may like, we'll try and accommodate it. Once the vehicle is galvanized we can get it powder coated from £150 please contact us for quotes. We can supply a tow hitch for £55 this is either a ball or pin, if you require a universal hitch its £75
When you're ready to order we will send you a sheet with the sizes we require to make your vehicle and harness, we require a 50% deposit and remaining balance prior to delivery or collection. We only accept cheques or bank transfer, bank details on request, cheques must be payable to N G Sanders.

iBex (mk1)
The iBex (mk1) is a 3 wheeled vehicle with a treadplate floor,wide front wheels with a small jockey wheel for ease of turning. It was originally designed for disabled use allowing a wheelchair to sit comfortably and securely, but is also as equally suitable as a 2 to 3 seat standard vehicle. It is made of mild steel galvanized which protects the metal inside and out, giving it long life.
It has a low point of gravity making it stable over all surfaces, with a width of 130cm and 15cm ground clearance , making it accessible to a lot of areas.
It has a quick release system allowing you to release the pony/horse from the vehicle at any speed without leaving the vehicle.
We advise the safety strap is around your wrist, body or someone else with you. A single strap or multiple straps can be tied to the cord around the shaft, giving the additional person the freedom to release the pony/horse should the need arise.
It is designed to fit British standard wheelchairs, at the point of ordering we will ask for the size of the wheelchair and can adjust the vehicle slightly to take bigger ones. It has 4 anchor points to secure the wheelchair.
The iBex (mk1) with seat will carry 2 adults comfortably or if used around the farm will carry a bale of hay etc.
The iBex (mk1) will fit pony/horse 33" upwards.
Prices are as followed:
up to 13.3hh £3250
14hh upwards £3500 both prices include a pair of aluminium treadplate ramps.
A standard seat is £150, if ramps are not required the price will be adjusted.
Theses prices include harness( all you need is bridle and reins), plus delivery, but you are always welcome to collect from us. Contact us for delivery costs.
The harness comes in blue. Once the vehicle is galvanized we can get it powder coated. Contact us for quotes.
If you're considering buying both vehicles using the same pony/horse it would be possible to use the shafts and harness from one vehicle to the other. This will reduce the cost so contact us for further details. If you're a land owner or estate owner or access provider, this is a great, safe and reliable way to give access for disabled people. It's a great way of giving access to less accessible areas for the disabled and can be a viable business. We can also offer advice and training. If you were considering multiple iBex's(mk1) contact us for price. When you're ready to order we will send you a sheet with the sizes we require to make your vehicle and harness. A 50% deposit is required with the remaining balance prior to collection or delivery. We accept cheques or bank transfer. Bank details on request, make cheques payable to N G Sanders.

The IBex disabled carriage
The IBex is a safe, well designed and manufactured carriage that is used by disabled people and pulled by a horse, pony or donkey.
The quick release system is a simple device that quickly releases the pony from the carriage. It can be activated by the ‘walker’ who is alongside the pony. It can also, if required, be operated by the disabled person in the ‘trolley’ (as it is sometimes called). At this point the mechanical brakes are deployed and the carriage comes to a gradual halt. The brakes can only be released by lifting up the shafts.
The design and manufacture has been tested at the School of Engineering, Kingston University. It has been the subject of various papers/dissertations by MSc and B.Eng Engineering students , who have been supervised by me. It has undergone stability tests and due to its low centre of gravity the carriage managed an angle of over 700 to the horizontal before the trolley became unstable. The welds and joints of the frame have been tested and the strength of the frames and axles has undergone a computer program for stress analysis. This computer program is called ‘Solidworks’ and is a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and the results showed that there was no stress anywhere on the carriage that exceeded the safe working load. An actual loading of 200kg was applied to the bed of the carriage with no appreciable deflection beyond the designed strain.
If there are any engineering questions of the use, or design of the Ibex then please do not hesitate to contact me.

On the left is a photo of how to connect the cords from the chariot to the harness, always make sure that the spring loaded pin that is attached to end of the cord that goes into the HDPE shaft tip is fully inserted. Never have the cord that goes round the top of the shafts too tight, as this will result in premature releasing of the vehicle.
