Review on Schwinn Day Tripper and Porter Cargo Bike Trailer: Tow Behind with Multiple Colors - No Kids or Animals Allowed by Garrett Craven

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Saved by Schwinn: Cycling

A change of plans forced me to get creative. I had an archery shoot in New Mexico where motorized vehicles were banned. My destination was 3.5 miles from my truck. A third of the ride was through unkempt woods along a barbed wire fence, and the rest of each ride was on sandy or hard-packed gravel roads. I have overloaded the trailer many times without considering the weight. At one point one of the trailer tires drove me straight onto a fully grown cactus. I abused the trailer, it wasn't designed to do what I needed it to do. I packed an incredible amount of gear in the trailer which made it too heavy; He has tipped more than 15 times. Due to the high payload and the high weight, I didn't pay attention to properly raise the trailer back onto 2 wheels. It's been a month and I don't write reviews. The tires are still holding air, the wheels are really spinning and the axle is straight after 11 trips and the trailer is always upright, fully loaded. The trailer saved my hunt by allowing me access to a very remote area for primitive hunting and lugging all the gear I needed back and forth without ever finding a weak spot. The trailer took a real beating; He has endured everything I've been through and never gave up - I'm happy and obligated to give him 5 stars. Many Thanks
