Heavyweight Bike Trailers

The Brouhaha Bike Trailer Enables Cyclists to Tow Heavy Loads

— July 23, 2014 — Autos
The Brouhaha Bike Trailer is an electric-powered bike trailer that enables cyclists to pedal normally while still being able to carry along heavy loads.

The Brouhaha Bike Trailer is designed so it can be hitched to any bike. The cyclist simply has to turn the power on and start pedaling. The motor doesn't kick in until the wheels have completed a full rotation; this ensures that the trailer doesn't start motoring before the cyclist is fully ready. The trailer's braking is also automatically activated when the cyclist hits their brakes.

The contraption can currently handle up to 400 pounds of total weight. The developers plan to make the trailer modular so users can swap out purpose-built racks for everything from canoes to children.
Trend Themes
1. Electric-powered Bike Trailers - The rise of electric-powered bike trailers presents an opportunity for innovative designs that enable cyclists to easily carry heavy loads.
2. Modular Bike Trailers - The trend towards modular bike trailers allows for customizable solutions that can cater to a wide range of purposes, from transporting canoes to carrying children.
3. Automated Braking System for Bike Trailers - The development of bike trailers with automated braking systems provides increased safety and convenience for cyclists, offering potential for further advancements in this area.
Industry Implications
1. Bicycle Manufacturing - Bicycle manufacturers can explore the production of electric-powered bike trailers to expand their product offerings and tap into the growing market demand.
2. Outdoor Gear and Accessories - Outdoor gear and accessories companies have an opportunity to develop modular bike trailer systems to enhance the functionality and versatility of biking equipment.
3. Auto Parts and Components - Auto parts and component manufacturers can explore the production of automated braking systems for bike trailers, catering to the increasing demand for safety features in the cycling industry.
