Bike trailer train with 3 trailers!

 Here is a crazy long update for the bike trailers: 

Bike + Ridekick  (electric pusher) + Burley (comfortable kid trailer) + Instep trailer (to carry cargo)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

here is how i plan to put the kid bikes on to go to:

- the park with kids and little bikes

- from/to school (with backup kid carrier trailer if they get tired on the way)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 HOW?

- Remove the wheel locking mechanism (we never use it anyways, only an annoyance when the kids lock it for "fun")

- The Burley trailer then has 2 free holes under the rear structural bar used to attach a custom pine wood stud with the proper instep trailer attachment hitch (see photo below)

- The top part of the wooden stud is carved (an electric wood carver is useful) to match the round shape of the structural pipe of the trailer, it allows to hold snugly without wiggling (not shown) once bolted in place.

- The instep bike hitch has been altered to fit into a standard hitch, by adding holes vertically (drilling  1/4 inch holes), as the original holes are horizontally aligned.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In order for the cargo to be safe in the old trailer, it was needed to add a reinforced plywood bottom. It is bolted with 4 steel pieces bolted into the steel frame of the trailer and screwed into the wood.
