Pulling Trailers (wagons)
- Thread starter MrLarkins
- Start date
I'm working on a tow behind golf bag carrier to get me to the golf course, made from a 2 wheel bag walker thingy that the fit old guys use. Swapping out the wheels with some old bmx, and adding a bar to attach to (probably) the seatpost.
I have towed the kids trailer, but it attaches very close to my gear/chain and I don't trust it with a body in it yet.

I love the trailer thread so am re-posting a trailer I used for a few years about 20 years ago when all I needed were my legs and attitude to get me long distances with plenty of gear and adequate speed. My friend John, of "Rotten Orange" fame, started a trailer for me that I need to finish soon. I may do that and post pics too.
hey guys check this site out I found a lot of inspiration and ideas to mabe try or do

Done! One coat of black stain and one coat of satin Poly. Too impatient and cheap for 2 coats.As soon as I get off my butt and apply some finish, this is what I'll be rocking around the East Valley...
Mounted on this...
That's a .50cal ammo can painted flat black mounted to the front, spaced with some neat bushings found at Ace. I might try and find some 26" wheels for it so it sits a little more level. They'd have to be dished though.
I have a trailer similar to yours and was wondering how did you hook it up to your axle with the sprocket anyway?
That looks quite nice and rugged too!
Who needs spare parts with that, just take another bike on the trailer.. haha!

Here's how I hooked mine up; 3/8" heim joint with a pin. Hookup takes about 10 seconds along with the 12v hot wire

Have a build thread here somewhere.
My new frame doesn't have the hitch on it, cause I don't like a big trailer. I look like a homeless guy with it. So I'll be building a single wheel trailer in the future, if I need to.
