- I'm starting to get ready for the season with biketouring arround Denmark (The country in Europe).
My E-bike is a Scott and I love it.
My trailer is a Burley flatbed trailer and it's perfect for me on my tours.
And I am a military veteran Iraq, Afghanistan etc. (working with PTSD and +30 kg / 66 lbs overweight).
Do you have any suggestions to my equipment or my way to pack the trailer, please let me know :)
Thank you sir,, I will buy one, looks very handy,,
Thanks for the video.
Thank you for the thorough demonstration! I'm inspired to get one of these and try out some bikepacking.
Like to see some routes and camp sites around Holstebro.
I would like to see stability of the trailer at 25-30 km/hr. And if packing makes a difference in the stability of the trailer. I did a tour last year and I was disappointed of the stability at higher speeds above 15-18 km/hr. The trailer wobbled a lot and flew off the hitch a few times. Also it makes a lot of difference how you a pack a trailer in general. Put the heaviest weight close to the axel and in the middle and put lighter item towards the outer edges of the of trailer loading space. It is similar to a car trailer. It will help prevent unbalanced weight and shifted center of gravity. You want the weight as much as possbile close to the axle of the trailer, to prevent it wobbling and toppling over. Hard lessons learned from my bike and trailer adventures last year.
I load a large tote full of groceries and 4 cases of beer and have no problem at 34 K on my fatbike 😋
Very nice setup, thank you for sharing!
Excellent video!
Thanks for making this video! Do you think I can Carry one adult bicycle on this flatbed?
I think that will be no problem about the weigt
And I thought my handlebar was loaded with accessories.
Nice overview Karsten, I was thinking about picking up a Burley Flatbed and I like how you actually show how the trailer goes over terrain unlike some reviews.
I was wondering if you think the Burley Flatbed could travel with me on planes along with a bag for clothes, essentials etc?
I'd definitely like to see where you go on your trips, always great to see how people travel and tour with their bikes!
I travel with it and use a 70 l backpack and tie up ! I can use buses that way and it folds and I carry it on to the bus ! Works well 😀
@@Brad-99 That's pretty cool, so def land travel is possible. I was thinking of picking up some portable solar panels to charge my ebike while I'm stopped, so this makes it very possible.
How about travel on planes?
Very interesting. I just got an ebike and was looking for a trailer was thinking of getting the Nomad as it has a waterproof cover, not sure if this is bigger though. What is that duffel bag it looks good?
The duffelbag is from Northface and is total fine. In the video I'm only testing, så i do not have the rain cover over.
My plan is to pack everyting in waterproof bags and then (mayby) stuff it all in a very big waterproof bag.
I'm not done thinking yet :)
Awesome video! When is your trip? Cheers
I will start in 3 weeks :)
@@karstenp.7971 I hope you film it ! Cheers
You should of purchased a battery powered trailer in addition to hiring someone to ride your electric transporter contraption, see this way you would not to be productive at all.
Unhelpful and unkind pointless comment... if you don't like other people's choices why bother watching?
