A large wheel placed close to the centre of the gravity,ensures superb lightweight performance and the quick and super rigid fastening is a brilliant design. Riding your bike, even with a heavy load, in the city as well as on narrow lanes, you just forget about the trailer. The rider quickly gets used to the somewhat different than usual behaviour of the vehicle. Carrying a smaller load can sometimes cause anxiety to the cyclist; he will look behind to make sure it's still there ! the Extrawheel is so light you will forget it's there!
Cyclists who want a quick and reversible conversion of their mountain bike or hybrid into a truck are invited to see for themselves how in practice such a conversion:
will amaze them with the stability of the bicycle-trailer due to
its low centre of gravity
will upgrade durability of the bicycles rear wheel, which often
happens to be overloaded when using panniers
will reduce the tendency of the front wheel (a possibility when using heavy pannier bags) to lose contact with the ground when riding steeply uphill
will reduce the stopping distance from where a load placed high on the bike will make the back wheel lose contact with the ground sooner than when its pushed at the axle level
will enable you to carry rucksacks or backpacks aswell as
conventional cycle bags
will reduce resistance of the bicycle-trailer's movement on soft ground by spreading the load over a bigger area
will make getting on and off the bike easier, which for somepeople may be quite inconvenient when the space behind the saddle is filled with bags
Spare wheel
Extrawheel, as the world's only large-wheel bicycle trailer may
also turn out to be helpful in a situation when damage to your bike's front wheel could make it impossible to continue your
journey. Transferring the twisted wheel to the trailer, which isless loaded and will ensure the wheel greater freedom of movement,
may turn out to be a life-saving solution, especially if you're far away from civilisation.
Transporting bags
We would like to conclude our offer with completely waterproof
(even under water) transporting bags which will give your luggage
excellent protection against dust, water and humidity. Their large
capacity (60 litres) will allow you to carry a total of 120 litres
of luggage fitted to the shape of the bags. The lack of unnecessary buckles and hard edges will facilitate filling the
bags and at the same time will protect the trailer's cover against
wearing through
