The Burley Nomad is offset slightly to the left. I experimented by seeing how close to the edge of the pavement I had to go in order to force the right wheel off. It turned out that I had to ride much closer than I would have ridden without the trailer. When I did force it off, there was no drag or tendency to pull the bike. In fact, I hardly noticed it, probably due to the way the trailer hitch articulates. This articulation, in fact, allows you to actually lay the bike down if there is nothing to lean it against.
