Not sure what your towing with, but I have a 6x10 V-nose enclosed (3'v) and I can easily haul 3 bikes. Mine is standard height, many are 6" over, but I haul it with the Saab so the lower height makes it pull easier at 80 MPH . Mine is from R&R ( http://www.rnrtrailers.com ) and is Aluminum framed, so It is light as well. Thule ( http://www.thuletrailers.com/fw/main/Home-1.html ) Rance ( http://www.rancealuminum.com/ ) and Feather Light makes a nice aluminum framed units and they are popular in the NE.


Barber....................when is this anyway..........................twist my arm...............

Go for the torsion axle as opposed to leaf springs as they have inherent damping and sit lower. Brakes are a good idea if you travel at higher speeds as well.

If you are looking at an open trailer again I prefer aluminum trailers, Triton makes a good 3 rail, Worthington trailers are very well made too, but expensive.
