Going going down the street unloaded I found that even with my large wheels and rear rack I had just enough clearance so that the trailer can make sharp turns.

It even works for bikeshare services (such as NYC’s Citibikes), as you don’t need any tools to attach the trailer. This came into play when trying to attach the Travoy to a bike with only a little bit of the seat post showing—usually for someone who needs the seat near the lowest position. There are rubber caps that cover the wheel release buttons and I always seem to knock these off as I’m pulling the trolley through the door. Because of those potential difficulties, it would be nice if Burley sold a seat post hitch that simply extended from your bike at a higher angle instead.Although to be honest, even though I totally ride to work in dress clothes, the commute to work is one of the few things for which we’ve never used the Travoy. Only downsides are two more wheels for rolling resistance, and my tendency to pack everything including the kitchen sink! More than once I have found myself griping about the Travoy’s poor handling, only to discover when I got home that both tires were completely flat. Flipping the trailer early on also highlighted that this trailer, despite its dainty feel, can take a beating.

The ultra-packable design does add some points back to the overall versatility score, as we found getting this trailer in and out of our house was quick and easy. The tiny wheels and flexible materials will heavily restrict what types of road surfaces one might want to pull this trailer over.

With the Travoy, the experience is the opposite; the two wheels and tilted angle keep it stable from the outset, and adding more cargo only makes it more so. The deep lower market bag takes hardier and larger items that can handle being stacked together while the smaller upper bag is perfect for fragile items like eggs. The latest model features a new Quick Hitch which allows for a tool-free transition from bike to bike.

If you plan on loading your bike trailer down with heavy items such as water jugs, firewood, or trail building material, check out some of the more "rough and tumble" options in our review. Election time is a good opportunity to get some as candidates hand them out free but you can usually find a few abandoned signs advertising services/products along the main streets in any city. I plan to replace them with reflective tape which will save weight and be visible from more directions.

I used the Travoy on a few bikes, but mostly on the Juiced Bikes CrossCurrent X, a powerful e-bike that has no trouble hauling the cargo up hills. Since we moved last year, this has become our primary use for the Travoy, because our new place is one block away from the farmers’ market. I’ve strapped down some lightweight groceries on this part before, but the Travoy isn’t really designed for it.
