Bike trailers are perfect for transporting larger and heavier items of luggage. The trailers specially designed for bicycles offer many advantages not only in everyday life, but also when travelling. In addition to the usual two-lane models, single-lane variants are also available. The single-track trailers not only impress with their very low weight, but also with their particularly directional stability. A specialist in this segment is the spring-loaded travel trailer BOB IBEX, which was able to prove its qualities in an earlier test at the Velomotion.
The heart of the BOB IBEX is the stable frame made of chrome-molybdenum steel, which allows a maximum payload of 62 kg on the 40 × 32 cm loading area. Complete with drawbar and 16″ wheel, the trailer has a total length of around 161 centimetres. The low center of gravity and the narrow body ensure high directional stability when driving. The supplied quick release allows for a very uncomplicated attachment to the bike for axle widths up to 140 mm. This applies to the 26″ model as well as the variant for 28″ and 29″ bikes. Optionally available from Croozer are also special quick releases for axle widths up to 160 mm as well as thru axles and special mounts for solid axles.
Another special feature is the suspension with steel spring dampers. The suspension travel is 7,6 centimetres, and the adjustability from 6,8 to 32 kilograms promises optimal response. This makes the BOB IBEX travel trailer even suitable for trips on unpaved roads. The suspension eliminates slight bumps and thus protects the luggage and the driver's nerves. In addition, a very safe towing of the trailer while driving is also guaranteed. For better perception by other road users, the trailer also comes with an easily recognizable pennant from the factory. The four mounts for bottle holders and the fender mount are also practical.

At Croozer, the BOB IBEX is available in several versions. If desired, the trailer is available directly with the BOB BAG transport bag. With a capacity of 94 liters, the bag offers enough space for all kinds of luggage. The waterproof material in bright safety yellow reliably protects the cargo from rain and moisture. Of course, the roll closure with Fastex buckle also contributes to this. Equipped with a durable carrying strap, nothing stands in the way of taking the bag with you when you're not biking. For bargain hunters, the BOB IBEX trailers from Croozer are currently on sale with or without a bag. The price of the trailer is currently 599 euros, including the BOB BAG at 649 euros.
