These sulky wheels have been tested for strength, durability and performance by Human Impact Engineering and have also been used in trials under the supervision of stewards.  

They conform to all the requirements of the HRA Sulky Wheel Approval Policy and meet the HRA Sulky Standard

Teny wheels are distributed by Starlite sulkies.   Contact Glen Mitchell on 0431997052 for details.

HRA takes the process of testing of new products very seriously as it impacts on the health and safety of all participants as well as the welfare of the racing horses.
