We'd love to take our 2 bikes with us but we're restricted to 150 lbs on the hitch. Thinking of have it at the rear with a dedicated type of rack but I'd like to hear from your experience with the driving. Considering the trailer is so light, would the weight at the rear have an impact? Would we be best to have a spare wheel underneath to counterbalance?

Hi Marc, our trailer 5x8 is very stable driving 100-120 km/h even with high winds. This is because of the shape and large wheels and wheel base. We do have the spare wheel installed under by Steve (shop). Our car limits the vertical weight on the hitch to 220kg ( not the towing weight) so personally I would prefer the extra load on the back. I'm sure Steve has an option for a hitch on the back. If you will install it (after market) I suggest look for a way that the receiver will not stick out too much to hurt you when working in the kitchen. Take care. Iulian
