First of all,,, I am planning on building a smaller trailer. soon as i get a little more cash. second there are 2 better ways of doing this, one attach the hitch to the axle, requires a longer axle , let me know if you know of one i can buy. or build a "sleeve" to slip over the part holding the axle. This worked quite well. With the empty trailer i got to 75 easily and swerved across the road without knowing i was even pulling the trailer. having weight in the back as in the pictures is a bit different. Still did fine, but only got up to 45. It moved a bit, but still did fine. here we go bike and trailer pictures by aquagirl900 - Photobucket
