Anything better than a BOB trailer

I havr been looking for a trailer that can be used for camping and a little bit of off road, also transporting shopping and a small dog on trips where it would be too far for her to run.

Needs to fit multiple bikes...so suit q/r rear or 12mm fitment.

Thanks

Re: Scotland's West/North Coast roadie route (NC500)?

Just come back from an almost NC500, the brutal wind and rain at Durness made us turn S at Hope. We went down to Lairg and then via the falls of Shin back to the west coast and then to Inverness.

The wee mad road of Inverpolly was a highlight of the trip!

We use the Blackburn ones. They are metal and you can adjust which side the exit is and how much sideways it is...if that makes sense

Re: what size cassette and chainset on your bike???

My 29 HT uses a 30T front and a 10sp 11-40 cassette. The 40 is an aluminium expander and i use it rarely...but i like it being there.

Running 650b, then i use a 32T chainring. It gives the same bottom gear

Re: Battery recharger - robust

As im just about to buy a disc dynamo hub, i really fancy the Shimano. I will go for q/r and 36h but there appears a bewildering array of options. Id like 6v and 3w, obviously lighter is nicer....which one do i buy?

Any recommendantions?

Re: Battery recharger - robust

A quick google looks like a Zendure 10000mAh is £30+, and a Portapow in same capacity is £15. Im thinking Portapow as it seems to cope well with fluctuating charging current.

Re: Battery recharger - robust

Slightly off topic, but has anyone used a Maplin Cemo charge controller? They seem a good price but there is only one review which isnt great. Idea is to use it to charge a battery pack, and use that at stops to charge garmin etc.

Thanks
