More Maxshopper

Thanks to a reader, some further info on the Maxshopper is available. It's not in English, but it weighs in at about 15 pounds and retails for about $225 with bike hitch or $170 without. The photo above shows it in "shopping cart" mode.

It's nifty in that uniquely Swiss way, but there's no need gnawing nails until someone imports it. BicycleR Evolution, Burley, Bikes at Work, and others have you covered for now.

Rachel and I have been testing the BicycleR Evolution Heavy Duty trailer for a couple of months now. Two days ago, we hauled 60 pounds of groceries behind the tandem with no problems whatsoever. We recommend it highly, but all of the trailers above (and others, no doubt!) are great, too. It's a good time to be a cycler who wants to carry stuff.
