Wondering if any one here has one of these or has used one.

Looking at getting one for the usual things one uses a trailer for and to carry either one bike or two at a time.

If any one does have one.
-How well do bikes fit on the 6x4? On the web site it appears you can fit a blade on one.
-How well are they constructed?
-How well do they stand up to a bit of rough treatment.



Cheers

You'll need a trailer at least 7 foot long and prolly 5 foot wide to get two bikes in side by side, go the 6x4 if you just want to throw one in diagonally!

I brought a 7x5 trailer last year, with some mods it fits two bikes easy...or a tonne of rocks if i had a car up for the job.

this is what i am taking about. Its a 6x4

Mick (tape) got one from them
...pm him

cheers

and you trailer gurus
what are you sing re frames or buddies in the trailer???
I see some have channels or frames in the std 6x4

tie downs ain't the problem
its the other stuff you have in the trailer


cheers

yea tape is pretty happy with his..when we were there he was telling us all abt it (but jimmy kept interupting & i cant remeber wot tape was saying)....oh and it folded up nicely in the back yard...

Greeny,

Ours is a 8x4 easy trailer. Very light and even i can fold it up.
we bought the channels for the bike also from them.

We love it.. fits both the bikes on very well.......

PM michael (Tape) for pictures if you want

Just as an option I was at Carac (the trailer mob) in Dandenong and they had channels in diff lengths to be able to just add to trailers. I think from memory the 6ft long ones were about $29...but that is from memory. They have heaps of stuff for trailers there. I dont know about the fold up trailers though. I mainly work with trailers in the hire industry. Hence I spend a fair bit of time getting parts

Cheers

Just looked at the easy trailer site. Looks like you have to get them delivered (as it says "delivery only") which you need to add to the price as well. They look like a convienient idea, but at a price. I am soon going to be repainting my trailer and giving it a birthday. New paint etc etc etc...not looking forward to it..maybe i should get it galvanised....hehe

Might have to have a good look at that stuff....trailer is getting a bit rusty so was gunna get the rusty bits back to metal, etch prime, etc, etc

Is that the dulux stuff you were referring? Or some other manufacturer?

G'day Tones and Lainey.

not sure of the manufacturer mate, last time I got this stuff was from SuperCheap, 600gm spraycan ?? If you got rust, then need to deal with that first of course....

if you find a use for an airless gun, you can also get hammertone in 1l or 2l cans, its a fair bit cheaper that way......
