BOB Yak Plus Trailer In Black (Includes Dry Sak)

BOB Yak Plus Trailer In Black (Includes Dry Sak) Review



This model is relatively unchanged over the past 10 years because it is meant to last. I bought mine at a Garage Sale and after 100 dollars in upgrades (the new connection system), liner for the bottom and sides, cargo bungee net, blinking light (that attaches to the bungee), and a flag, this things works amazingly. I use it to go about 8 miles into town to get groceries each week. Its stated that it holds 50 pounds, and it does that easily. I come back with a week's worth of groceries and: 3 gallons of milk and juice, 4 liters of soda, etc. I've found that it can do 50+ pounds easily just note that when you ride out of the saddle it is much harder to turn (only when you are not on your seat).

The best thing about this trailer is that you don't have to worry about hitting something. If you can fit through an obstacle (between parked cars and traffic) with your handlebars, the trailer will fit also. Because it has only 1 wheel, that wheel follows within an inch of your rear tire's track (for turning). I would without a doubt pay full price for this if I didn't see the opportunity on the side of the road. I keep a poncho which I can put under the bungee net if it rains but I'm sure the BOB Sack is great. The best thing about this trailer\company is that replaceable parts, if you needed them, are all completely online. I was able to replace the Fork system to the current system (used rubber lanyards to keep it attached to the special Quick Release bar on rear of your bike.

BOB Yak Plus Trailer In Black (Includes Dry Sak) Overview


BOB Yak Plus (with Dry Sak). A great tool for a long tour or a trip to the market. This trailer couldn't be easier to attach. It tracks a straight line behind the rear trike wheel and putting your cargo below the trike axles means the load won't affect the handling.

Compatible with all trikes we currently sell. If you have a TerraTrike Path, ask us for the BOB Nutz attachment.

BOB trailers will not interfere with the fenders, seat bag, rear rack, trunk pack, or commuter bag.
