Hmmm...it sounds like enough people have had enough problems with their Quik-Pack, I doubt I'll go that route. I don't think we could load up our bikes with bags and panniers and carry the gear we need (e.g., tent, sleeping bags) with both our current bikes and current wheels. My wife would probably be alright...I don't want to push my wheels on it. I certainly don't want to push her by giving her all the gear to carry! This is the main reason we are looking for a trailer. We can get to use our current bikes (which we like), with relatively minimal gearing changes (as compared to the price of two new touring bikes), and get a chance to use it to haul stuff around town. I do sometimes ponder the BOB Yak, as has been mentioned; however, I am a bit concerned about it still putting a fair amount of weight onto my rear wheel as well as instability at higher speeds (particularly for lighter riders like my wife). However, I also know that people rarely post about "everything's fine" experiences- and many seem to like the Yak. We don't have immediate need...maybe I'll keep perusing craigslist/ebay and let a decent deal on a used one make the choice for me... If I go one way or the other...even if it is months, I'll make sure to update this post.
