Symptoms
Is there any trailer that may be used or converted to a "child-trailer?" Do you produce or plan to produce a trailer with only one wheel (single line), like the famous BOB? Could a BOB fit to a New World Tourist?
Causes
Solutions
Though we do not make any child trailers or single wheel trailers, both Burley Design Cooperative trailers and BOB Yak trailers can be pulled by Bike Friday travel bikes.
The Burley (www.burley.com) trailers require a specific hitch (called an "Alternative Hitch" by Burley) to fit a Bike Friday. Use their Web site or contact them to see which one you need.
The BOB (www.bobtrailers.com) Yak trailer requires the replacement of the axle nuts. When using the SRAM Spectro 3x7 with the BOB Yak trailer, you will need special replacements; these nuts are available from Bob.
We recommend and sell BicycleR Evolution cargo trailers for your around-town hauling needs. However, the BicycleR Evolution trailer should never be used to carry children.
