Tips for the towing bicycle
For towing the Cargo Trailer, we recommend using
a bicycle with multiple gears. The more speeds the
bicycle has, the easier it will be to nd the appropriate
gear, for example, when starting, climbing hills or riding
with a headwind.
The towing bicycle must have two strong, independently
operated brakes that are not only in perfect working
order but also work effectively in wet weather conditions.
This is absolutely essential, as the brakes must be able
to stop the bike with the additional weight of the trailer.
The towing bicycle must have a sturdy, rear-mount
kickstand able to hold the bicycle rmly upright to guar-
antee safety and comfort when loading and unloading
cargo. Single-legged kickstands mounted in the middle
of the bicycle, under the bottom bracket, are NOT suit-
able because the weight of the hitched Cargo Trailer,
which rests on the rear axle, would make the parked
bicycle unstable. Consult a bicycle shop for assistance
in choosing the right kickstand.
We recommend riding with a rear-view mirror on the
towing bicycle. A rear-view mirror makes it easier to
keep an eye on the vehicles behind you so that you
can react appropriately. Always ride defensively.
The towing bicycle should have a long rear mudguard
with a mud ap to protect the Cargo Trailer from dirt
thrown up by the rear wheel of the towing bicycle.
Tips for riding with the Trailer
When pulling a loaded trailer, the handling, balance
and performance of the towing bicycle will be affected,
especially when starting, braking, turning and riding
downhill. Prior to your rst trip, we recommend taking a
practice ride without cargo in a calm, trafc-free area.
This is a great way to acquaint yourself with the han-
dling of the bicycle and the dimensions of the trailer.
The safety ag on the long, vertical pole will make you
more visible to other road users. Never ride without the
safety ag properly mounted.
Cyclists should always use available bike paths or
lanes, even when pulling a trailer. Be especially care-
ful when riding on narrow bike paths or lanes, as well
as on paths and trails with two-way trafc. The Cargo
Trailer is wider than the handlebars of most towing bi-
cycles, and in most cases, the Cargo Trailer will not be
centred behind the towing bicycle. Reduce your speed
in places where navigation is especially challenging;
and if you are ever in doubt about whether the trailer
will be able to t through an opening, dismount and
push the bike and trailer through.
Reduce your speed when riding on paths or streets
with bumps or uneven surfaces. Reduce your speed
when turning. Otherwise the centrifugal force could
cause the Cargo Trailer to tip over.
Keep in mind that braking distance is increased when
pulling a bicycle trailer.
When turning left, never allow the angle between the
rear wheel of the towing bicycle and the hitch arm of the
Trailer to be extended more than 90°. Turning at sharper
angles could damage the hitch connector (1). Be ex-
tremely cautious when turning right, as sharp right turns
(2) can cause the rear wheel of the towing bicycle to hit
the hitch arm, potentially damaging the hitch arm and/or
the rear wheel of the towing bicycle (3).
