    My little PiggyBacker is a fine trailer, but it jangles! I think it's those darned safety chains. Clang! Wang! Click! I can't stand it. (Oh, the bells, the BELLS!) Does anyone use safety wires? Safety ropes? Safety chain in a rubbery tube? Suggestions welcome to this serious (well, seriously...

How much weight should I throw in there to stabilize the ride and reduce bouncing when I'm just tootling around? I can throw a 45 pound plate in there. Suggestions on where to...

    I'm really mad now. I had big plans for MY MONEY. I was going to buy a new color matched Tailwind trailer, a Ducati Diavel with matching Uni-Go trailer and a Shadow bagger for the misses. Now what am I supposed to do? Well, maybe I'll just skip the extra bikes and buy a PiggyBacker trailer and...
