The #1 Utility Equipment Cart Just Got Better: RockNRoller® Unveils Next-Generation R9 and R9XLHD for Ultimate Gear Transport

The new R9 Series delivers RockNRoller’s most ergonomic, versatile, and all-terrain-ready carts ever—designed to move more gear with less effort, and fold down smaller than the competition.

Austin, TX – July 16, 2025 - RockNRoller®, the #1 trusted name in customizable utility carts for musicians, event professionals, and logistics industries worldwide, proudly introduces the new R9 “Mighty” and R9XLHD “Mighty+” Multi-Carts®, featuring the patented 8-carts-in-1 design that instantly transforms to replace the need for multiple carts.

The new R9 Series sets a new standard for ergonomic, all-terrain performance. Featuring wide 6"x2" front Groundglider™ casters and 8"x3" rear Groundglider™ wheels, both equipped with upgraded steel ball bearings, these carts roll smoothly over rough terrain while keeping the frame bed 20% lower to the ground. That means 20% easier loading, reducing strain on your back and making setup faster and more efficient.

The R9 and R9XLHD also fold down 20% smaller than similar competitive carts, making them easy to transport and store in tight spaces like vans, tour buses, or utility closets.

Two Sizes for Any Application

  • R9 “Mighty” Multi-Cart
    Telescopes from 34" to 52" in length across 8 configurations, carries up to 500 lbs or 32 cubic feet of gear, and folds down to a compact 9.5" height for easy storage. Weighing just 29.4 lbs, it’s ideal for transporting audio, video, photography, facility maintenance, and trade show equipment.
  • R9XLHD “Mighty+” Multi-Cart
    A heavy-duty workhorse that telescopes from 38" to 60" in length across 8 configurations, carries up to 600 lbs or 41 cubic feet of gear, and folds down to a compact 10" height for easy storage. Weighing just 34 lbs, it’s perfect for larger loads without sacrificing mobility.

Both models feature a 13.5" wide non-skid frame bed, foldable side rails, spring-loaded wing bolts, and telescoping steel tube construction for strength without excess weight. An integrated stairclimber design provides added stability when navigating curbs, stairs, or uneven surfaces, keeping the cart balanced and reducing the risk of tipping when hauling gear up or down obstacles.

The New Standard for Serious Transport Needs

Whether you're a touring musician, gigging DJ, production crew, photographer, AV technician, or facility operator, the R9 and R9XLHD are built to deliver enhanced performance and rock-solid reliability—no matter where the job takes you. With heavy-duty Groundglider™ wheels and upgraded ball-bearing construction, these carts glide effortlessly over challenging surfaces like gravel, grass, curbs, and uneven terrain, keeping your gear stable and your setup stress-free.

Optional accessories like shelves, solid decks, hangers, and flex straps let you customize your cart to your workflow.
