Here's my home-made trailer which I finished just last month. It has 5½ cubic feet of internal space, and more stuff could be strapped on top if necessary, like on a roof rack of a car. (Or, you can just remove the top in a jiffy.) It has 10" solid-rubber tires, and has springs to avoid damage from hitting bumps hard. It's designed to be aerodynamic. The bottom is more or less waterproof, so if I had to go through several inches of water, it'd float like a boat. Although the wheels and suspension parts would get submerged, the insides should stay dry.


You can see lots more pictures and description on this page of my website: Wilson Mines Co., road-bike trailer

I'm new to the forum and this is the first time I'm inlining a picture. I hope it shows up correctly.
