PC Both my bike are mid motors, that was the first thing I checked when buying them, as I had the trailer bug, when buying etc. You would have to have custom made trailer bracket/Bobbins for that hub motor. Tia

PC Here are some photo's, click on photo's for enlargement......... https://ibb.co/t51Mdtz Full view, trailer hooked up in the right side, left side trailer arm is hanging there, unattached. The left side of the trailer attachment arm has the inner tube/Bungee sway control attached for testing...

PC Yep, Done finished the trailer attachment brackets. Had to make them for the bikes, as the usual way is to have the Trailer Attachment Bobbins threaded on the end of the solid 1 pc axle, that wouldn't work on these bikes, as the Bobbins would interfere with the derailleurs shifting pattern...

Here is an update on more information I just found, Update Update Update A second option showed up while testing today, you can also use the cross bars on the bike attachment arms and the first...

Well Guys, I tried a bike tube for sway control......with 50#'s of weight, at the rear of the basket, as close as possible to the rear wheels, (1st test for the worst towing scenario for the most sway inducing results). It does work, now I have to adjust the tension to get the proper sway...

I just received a post that a Thera-Band may work, comes in several sizes and lengths, I wonder if that would hold up..........?

Run The closest bike shop is over 55+ miles away and the next closest is 100+ miles, I'll try the local dump first.......lol

PC I thought about that also, I can cant these backing plates, if needed, I only have 3" between the wheel frames...

In place of the rubber inner tube, I thought of using this.......... Using storm door safety chain items, can adjust to any length needed, and set for the tension needed, easy to install..........for controlling the swaying...

Hey Guys, I found the information for correcting the twitchy BoB type single wheel trailers. Now I have to find a bike inter tube............ Inner tube dampening system. BOB is your friend, but as all friends do, sometimes he gets a little too close for comfort, bouncing and swinging around...

Well, I'll have plenty of time, as I didn't draw any tags (again), so I can spend it on getting this bike trailer operating in perfect form. Finished 3 road tests, the last one with a 100#'s in the trailer, back towards the rear wheels. I did find out that the swivel/pivot point between the...

After finishing the 3rd road tests, the last one with a 100#'s in the trailer, back towards the rear wheels. I did find out that the swivel/pivot point between the bike attachment forks and main body of the trailer is very twichy and the slight movement causes over excessive trailer swaying. I...

PC Go to here to see the finished trailer, https://forums.electricbikereview.com/threads/revamping-a-bike-trailer.58994/page-2 I have been testing just the dual wheel version only, so far, have 3 smooth road tests so far. Handles very well, as for the corning aspect, with this dual wheel, when...

Here is some photo's, I hope, https://ibb.co/VOcRFfso https://ibb.co/20BLTcV1 https://ibb.co/YTx5tWq https://ibb.co/k2ygnxL1 https://ibb.co/tPQkhbtk

Run, I don't think that option will work very well, as each wheel has independent suspension. I kind'a think that plastic box would be destroyed, due to the bouncing action of each separate wheel. I have got front and back baskets already. Tia

Well Guys, The trailer is done, finished making the rear wheel brackets, painted and attached them to the trailer frame, just waiting on the attachment bobbins to hook up to the bike. Had to make a couple of special attachment brackets for the trailer attachment to the bike. Then I can start...

My favorite is JD, straight out of the jug and over the rocks once in a while, or Canadian Mist. If I am not going to do anything after darkness, a good shot in a cup of Jo before sack time. yrmv

TT & T That is just what I plan on doing, I just have to finish fitting the rear bracket to attachment to the bike. Then I'll start loading some weights and do some riding to see the results. Seeing that the OEM spec's are in question, I don't believe that they are valid, and as of this date...

TT How can I move any weights around?, When the bare trailer TW is 16#'s, before adding any weight? It is not possible to move any more weights towards the rear, as there is no room/area to carrying it. As I first stated, I believe that I am doing something wrong is the weighing tests, or there...

Land I am towing a trailer, but, if the trailer has small wheels, it just sinks into the sand/DG and you have a anchor you are pulling thru the sand. (Takes more effort to move.) With wide tires, they float and ride on top of the sand/DG and it easier to pull the trailer thru. (Less effort to...
