Although I regularly have a trunk bag on my bike, so I'd like a something that mounts low on the frame, but it seems like most of the home built trailer use a seat post mounted hitch. Is it easier? Stronger to build?
Yes, a seat post hitch is very easy to build using tire side wall and is as strong as metal plus you get flex . What's not to like?
