What makes this cart so special is that it works both as a bike trailer and as a push cart, plus the fact that it folds so compactly. It is very easy to remove the wheels. That is nice when you want to make it more stable or more compact. There are multiple places to hook the straps. The design is excellent. The amount of weight it can carry is limited (to 60 lbs), but there is a tradeoff between capacity and weight/compactness. The trailer strikes the right balance. I love this cart!

I can imagine that it's really difficult to design a product like this that will work for everyone. Overall, the quality is decent. I love how lightweight it is. I'm really glad it came with a bag. I wonder why they didn't make some different choices. For example, who doesn't have a rear rack "” almost everyone, right? If you have a rear rack on your bike you will need the rack adapter ($20) because otherwise the rod that attaches to the seat post isn't long enough. I would prefer to make that rod extendable. Also, if you have panniers on your rear rack they need to not come up higher that the rack itself or the Travoy will be impeded from rotating around your bike as you turn. For this reason, the post that extends over the rear tire shouldn't be flat. It should rise up to clear the side compartments. You might say.. "you don't need a pannier if you have this." Well, I do. I bought this purely because I want to cart my guitar behind me. It works well, but then I need a pannier for my picnic blanket, bike lock, etc. Anyway, another problem is that the wheels are just tight enough that my Taylor hard bag case barely fits in between them. Even with strapping the guitar down hard, a little bump will move the guitar to one side enough that it will rub against the wheels. I've read other complaints about the wheels rubbing on things, and I think a solution would be to add mud guards on the inside of the wheels so the contents between the wheels are protected. My work around is to strap the guitar in, not flat, but perpendicular to the back. It's just a little more wobbly this way. Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with this purchase. It was expensive, but now I can easily bike around town with my guitar, go to parks, etc. Fun!

I bought this about 18 months ago so can report after serious usage. I am extremely happy with the trailer, but made some significant modifications to get there. First of all I have a dedicated bike shed so I have plenty of room to store the trailer unfolded, so I do not use that function even thought it is great if you need it. I wanted a bit wider wheel base so I made my own axle and swapped out the standard Burley wheel for a pair of Northern Industrial Tools Tire on Spoked Ball Bearing Wheel (you can buy those wheels right here on Amazon). That wheel is rated at 100 Lbs. capacity vs the 60 lb. capacity of the Burley wheel. For my axle I simply went to Home Depot and bought a 1/2" diameter solid aluminum rod. The rod runs through the wheel brackets of the trailer with a nice snug fit and gives you a super solid base for the wheels as opposed to the pop on and off wheels that Burley provides with the trailer. Before I mounted the wheels I added a 1" solid brass sleeve at each end of the axle so I get an extra 2 inches of wheel base - noticeably stabilizing the trailer. So now I have a super solid axle/wheel with a more stable wheel base than the original, and to top it all off I sold the original Burley wheels on Ebay for more than I paid for my replacement stuff!

I go to Costco regularly with this trailer and haul back 75-80 lbs of groceries easily. I find the standard bag Burley provides with the trailer is fine and with my added 2 inches of wheel base described above I never have any rubbing issues since the wheels never touch the bag. I made a "freezer bag" that fits inside by using an insulated pizza bag like the ones they deliver your pizzas in, then a quilted insulated Space Blanket to wrap around the pizza bag. That combination is super insulated and I haul frozen stuff home for over an hour on the bike and it is all rock hard frozen when I get home to put it in the freezer.

Since that basic Burley bag runs roughly 1/2 of the length of the trailer you have lots of room on top. Rather than pay the ridiculous prices Burley wants for their custom bags I just bought the 48 Liter Everest Hiking Pack right here on Amazon for $30. That's a very nice, huge bag and it sits easily right on top of the Burley bag. I load it up to the max, and secure it to the trailer with a pair of 1" nylon straps (I cut the straps off of the Burley tiedowns which are included but use those plastic loops with my own nylon straps to secure the pack on top - works great). So I have oodles of capacity with those 2 bags plus my panniers.

I do all of this with an electric bike since my Costco is 17 miles away and I could never pull that much of a load with just my regular bike, especially with the hills we have here in the San Francisco Bay area. Since my bike battery fits behind the seat tube it makes the rear wheel further back than a normal bike so the trailer did not have enough clearance for that bike. I solved that problem by buying a clever bit of gear called a SATORI Adjustable Stem ABERHALLO . That is actually for handlebars to be extended but by turning it sideways you can attach it to your seatpost and it sticks back about 3" and presents a very stable place to then mount the hitch bracket for the Burley trailer.

I've included pics of my rig so you can see more of what I am describing here.

The upshot is that I have been able to live without a car now for over 18 months, but still able to travel significant distances with serious cargo loads. I'm sure Burley would not recommend changing their basic configuration but I can tell you this system has worked spectacularly and I have had no problems whatsoever with these big loads (given the upgraded axle and wheels - much more substantial than the basic Burley stuff).
The trailer tracks like a dream and is very stable - again I make regular 35-mile round trips with serious hills to negotiate.

I have no car but a stable of 2 electric bikes and 2 regular bikes. I built a shed and added a solar charging station so I charge my bikes for free from the sun. I've included some pics of the solar setup (A solar panel - which keeps two 12 volt batteries charged, inverter which converts the 12 volt into 110 ac, then I plug the regular charger into the inverter outlet). I have freed myself from the tyranny of the automobile and have zero transportation cost and zero emissions. The trailer was the final link - once I got that setup I had no need at all for a car. Obviously not everyone wants to live this way but I can tell you it is possible and quite liberating to do so.

Great trailer, makes my bike much more useful. I can now stock up at the grocery store and go to the Laundromat, two chores I used to need the car for. My first load was two cases of bottled water and two half cases of beer. Unless you've got a heavy load and are going uphill you're not aware of pulling a trailer. The trailer itself is very light and follows well, I think because its wheels are so close to your rear wheel. When you're done it folds up easily very compactly.
The "kickstand" broke the first time I used it. I don't miss it, probably because I never got to use it. I haven't asked Burley for a replacement.

I've attached the Travoy to my Cannondale touring bike. I live in a hilly area. It works like a charm. Excellent quality. I liked it so much I bought one for my son. I got the duffle as well, although I mostly use the bag that came with my Travoy. (I think my daughter stole my duffle anyway. It isn't of quite the same high-quality at the trailer, but still very serviceable.) I can carry about 2 shopping bags of groceries with it. It tracks very well even over potholds. (It bounces less with a little weight, but even empty it is not a problem.) The bag can rub against the wheels if not packed well. I keep a bungee cord with the cart at all times to keep the bag off the wheels. I suppose Burley could package a bungee cord or strap of some type with the trailer so one doesn't have to look for one. But then they cost about $1, so it wasn't a big deal. I like how easy it is to get on and off the bike, not like other trailers I've used.
