Hey all, for heavy loads (200 lbs say) pulled regularly, where will the primary stress point be? the bike mounted hitch; the mount from draw bar to hitch, draw bar, draw bar to trailer mount. The reason I ask is for my flat bed that I'm building. It is all aluminum and I have made a draw bar similar to the BAW ones. I was going to make a bike mount that attached to the frame, but have come across a DoggyRide bike mount and hitch. These attach to the bike at the axle and the draw bar receiver is the standard spring type hitch on store bought kiddy/pet haulers. The trailer it is designed for is rated at 120 lbs. Will I be the proverbial accident waiting to happen if I use the DoggyRide set-up on the end of my draw bar instead of the frame attached unit I was going to rig up?

Thanks in advance, Keenan
