Trailers for Internal Geared Hub Bikes
I finally have a new commuter, a Torker Graduate - city bike with Sturmey Archer 5 speed internal geared hub. I would love to be able to tow a Yakima Bob Trailer but I don't think the mounts are compatible with the axle bolts on an internal geared hub, rear wheel.
Besides a seat post mount, what other trailers would be compatible?

IIRC the Bob Yak trailer has adapters available to fit several IGH setups though not sure if that includes the Sturmety Archer hubs. Check their web site and/or email them to find out exactly what is available.
