HuskerJ - 2/22/2021 09:21 For hill ground, and long term durability, I'd suggest a Rowse. They have more flex, and are built to last, as much as anything I have seen out there. They do a lot of the 'little things' better than most. For example, the rake wheels ride on tapered Timken bearings, instead of ball bearings. Ditto the arms that hold the wheels. The frames are heavier, and have more flex. Compression instead of extension springs on the wheel arms. If you remember to grease them, they should last a lifetime.
