Foldable trailer for carrying bikes....

About three years ago I suggested exactly this on this very forum and got the 'what would you want one of those for' treatment.

You could buy a bike for that. 😉

Our 6 bike trailer doesn't fold but it is significantly cheaper (£621.49). If space is an issue they are fairly compact if you turn it up on its end and lean against the garage wall.

Heck, you could buy an old van and keep the bikes dry and secure for that money.

Surely a towbar mounted rack is better?

If you MUST have a trailer, surely a box-type trailer would be far better?

I suppose I have very specific requirements...

We have a small parking space where a trailer would have to be stored flat so this is ideal. We can't use a roofrack 'cause you need to use a lift to get to the space.

If you look at the big picture a towball rack is probably the answer, but I think our classic mini is going to look really silly with a 4 bike towball rack attached to the back 🙂

I think the trailer is pretty cool.
