Guys,
Heading a few hours up north with my wife and kids on Friday and taking the XS. Another 4 bikes up there (all XS's) waiting for a nice ride around the coast.
Now, my bike is low and long - well for my trailer anyway.
End to end it's 2300mm and my trailer is a box trailer and is 2400mm DIAGONALLY.
Any tips on loading and strapping her down?
Only time she has been in a trailer was when she was in a million parts.
I have ratchet tie downs and can buy whatever is best but this is the trailer I am stuck with.
Worried about ;
1. The loading as I push her up the frame grabbing the top of the ramp. Seen that many times.
2. The angle. When loaded she will have to sit diagonally. Well I guess I can keep it diagonal and just strap front and rear. Might be fine actually.
Any tips tricks?
Thanks,
Peter
