May need to put the rear bags mounted higher to clear the triangulated tow fork at the axle ..

Rack higher on special mounting scheme , or move the hooks on the bags further down from the top.

BoB trailers torque the rear triangle of the towing frame , and you may want some heavy duty wheels as mentioned above .

36 at a absolute minimum 48 with Salsa Gordo rims not a bad Idea, modify a Shimano Tandem cassette hub.
You will be shortening the axle from the left end.


My personal favorite is 2 wheel trailers, Ive got 2 now a Carry freedom City,
it folds flat, within the perimeter of its frame.
plus, has a slung bag that comes off with a buckle, and carrys on your back like
a messenger bag off the trailer .

and a Burly Flatbed , late in the CoOp production. 406 wheels QR off , uses 2 front wheel hubs.
at home the one trailer stores folded up in the cargo area of the 2nd.
