The Croozers and BOBs look good, but we have little space at home (in part due do a bicycle fleet ratio of 3:1 bikes to humans, counting a tandem as two). The new Burley folds down to a compact little package. At a store you're supposed to be able to take it off and use it as a cart, so you don't need to find a special parking place there either. The economical, elegant use of space is the main attraction to me.

I've done bit of looking around, and if you aren't planning on hauling more than 60 lb., a less-expensive option, but well-rated is the Croozer Cargo Trailer: http://www.biketrailershop.com/croozer-cargo-bike-trailer-p-1347.html?gdftrk=gdfV22203_a_7c1234_a_7c5298_a_7c1347 They also make a flatbed trailer that is more expensive, but also has a higher weight rating. http://www.biketrailershop.com/croozer-travel-bike-cargo-trailer-p-1346.html I'd be interested in hearing from others on opinions or experience.

Trek had a cargo at Ride the Drive that seems worthy of considering -- the Gary Fisher Transport. But a much cheaper and potentially better option might be this new Burley trailer, the Travoy, which looks pretty spiffy on line: http://www.burley.com/products/cargo-utilities/travoy.cfm > >Anybody have any experience with the Travoy?
