Touring trailer opinions please.

Hi all,

Bike is a 2009 Novara Safari. I'm a big guy so I don't want to add a bunch more weight to it.

I'm considering 3 trailers.

1: Burley Nomad with rack.

2: BOB Ibex 28 plus, with the recumbent rack over the tire.

3: Extrawheel. I have Ortlieb classic panniers, so I would only be buying the trailer.

My first thought is that the Ibex and Extrawheel might be nice because they track at about the same width as the bike.

I could load the Burley to minimize tongue weight. I have checked out Burley kid haulers and they are very light weight and seem to roll efforlessly.

Your opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Paul
