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.

Better than panniers
»
A friend and I each carried a BOB trailer 3,751 miles from Dallas Tx to Fairbanks Alaska over the summer of 2003. As we rode unsupported and camped along the way, we carried all our gear in our trailers. We didn't have a single problem. I personally found the BOB extremely convenient especially since there was no need to manage gear weight placement (as with panniers). It tracks like its on rails and was stable at all speeds; we reached 51 mph descending into Flaming Gorge Utah without any fear or hesitation. Bouncing over curbs and down bumpy rutted jeep roads was also a cinch. I later tried it on single track with a Mt Bike and am convinced that it would suffice (no shock necessary) for bikepacking. The only downside is a little added weight as compared to panniers.
