With a dawning realisation that my new bike has a bolt through rear axle and the toddle trailer has a standard QR hitch does anyone know of a way of getting the two to work together?
If it's a Chariot they do adaptors for various flavours of 142 x 12 back ends.
No it's a croozer and an old one at that that has the square style hitch.
I have literally just placed the order on an on-one codiene this evening and then realised child #2 is due to start trailer duty in 2 months time and child #1 is very excited about it all. My SO could be a bit annoyed about this.
Have you tried Robert Axle Project? Don't know the specifics of your trailer/hook up but they may have something that will work.

Get someone to knock you up an adapter?
Surely the correct N+1 answer is buy an additional bike for trailer towing duties.. 😉
Haha, you joke, the key function I used to justify the acquisition of my Croix De Fer was 'Chariot tractor'
I think Thule have an adaptor.
I got a garage to drill out an adaptor to 12mm , is still a bit awkward to fit
One of the robert axle project over looked good but pricey..I believe you can get a turbo adaptor to work
Like this it has a longer threaded section
With my dear SO already having laid down a diktat about getting rid of a bike to make room for new one then a solution has to be found. It looks like a Robert axle will do the trick. I just need to figure out all the relevant dims.
Just got a Robert axle, if you remove your maxle all the info you need is etched on it, Raleigh are the importers but go direct as they don't stock all sizes.
Btw most kiddie trailers are hitch mount.
