Burley Hitch on Turbo Como 4.0

[gebike]

Hey everyone -- new member, but I've learned a lot here, and after a bunch of research my Turbo Como 4.0 arrives next week.

Had a question that I thought someone might know the answer to. I own a Burley Nomad trailer. I'd like to hook it up to the Como. Can I simply install the normal Burley steel hitch, or will it not fit? There's a bunch of other options on the Burley accessory web page but I'm not sure what I'll need. Thanks.

Welcome Geoff and congrats on your Como! Your hitch will work just find but you will need to get a 12 x 1.0, 142-148mm thru axle adapter, Burley sells them or you can also get one from Robert Axle Project, there may be other brands out there. They typically run around $50.

Perfect. Thank you for the info!

Here’s a follow up — fits perfectly! Love my new bike. Thanks for the help!

Looks good, enjoy your travels! This is a shot from one of my grocery runs, I love my Burley trailers (I have the Nomad you see here and a Solo) and do more shopping and trips to the park by bike than by vehicle because of them.

Has anyone been able to source the right axle recently? The Burley website makes no mention of the 142-148mm thru axle.
