This range of carriages has been designed for dressage, cone driving, and also private driving and general show driving. Their elegance enhances all turnouts. They are light and roll easily thereby making it easier for drivers to show off their horses paces. Their short coupling helps when driving cones on angles. The passenger seats are designed to split so that the drivers seat may be moved into the middle of the carriage for cone driving if desired. Axle widths. Usually axles are set at 138, 148 or 158 (team width) cms. We can build the carriages with narrower front axles and also extending rear axles. Therefore it is possible to have carriages that extend to more than one rear axle width. We can supply and build spyders to suit Shetlands up to 17.2 Gelderlanders! Either in single or pair or team, PLUS we offer carriages that can be used by a combination of these.
