The original Burley Travoy bike trailer is what lead me to a car-free life 15 years ago and in this video, I unbox the 2020 version, and give you an overview on this updated bike cargo trailer!

Recently I went to MEC here in Ottawa Canada to shop. I brought my Travoy inside. When I got to the bike section, the guy there, who actually does know bikes, asked me, "Nice cart. Where did you get it?"
"Here. And it's not just a cart it's a bike trailer."
"Oh"
I am not sure why these are not ubiquitous. This is the best (lightweight) bike trailer in the world.

Thanks for the review. It'd be nice to some footage of the Travoy loaded up with different types of stuff and even awkward shaped things to see how it can handle it.

Your video convinced me to buy a burley travoy last spring and I love it. Now I’m schlepping my sons bike to school for our rides home on it and bringing his saxophone home as well. Awesome tool.

I love the honest review on the Burley Travoy. I'm most definitely getting one next week. This is the most sensible way of shopping or carrying items with a Bicycle. Thank You.

Another informative product overview from Bike Shop Girl. Thanks. I have the previous edition Travoy--tempting upgrade! All the new features address real issues with the previous edition.

Nicely done: specific, descriptive and based on extensive hands-on experience. I am a Brompton (folding bike) owner, so I am considering the Burley and the Brompton-specific Chubby, designed and built in Amsterdam. Thank you!

Great review. I bought one 7 or 8 years ago so the model before that one you reviewed. Still looks great and my is still functioning so built to last.

[PapaGeeek]

Thank you for your review ! 3 or 4 weeks now without getting in a car, a one week bike trip in Brittany, every day commuting to work with my bike... and now I'm looking for something to carry my golf bag ! G. (France)

I've done a 5000 mile bike tour with the Burley Travoy. no issues.

[lettyzane]

Hi, and excellent review. I’m getting ready to “bug out” and busk my way around the country. I play slide blues on a National resonator guitar that weighs 10 pounds. I haul it on my Harley with a backpack case but was concerned it would be heavy for long-haul bicycling. This is the answer! And I was looking at a previous edition, so I’m grateful you shared the 2020 updates. I’ll make sure I purchase a new model. I’m excited and nervous about this lifestyle change, but this trailer relieves a major issue. THANK YOU! Maybe I’ll see you out there....

Hi, I agree the new Burley seat hitch is superior to the old version. I bought one to use with my non-Burley seat mounted trailer (with a little modification to the latter) and it is so much better than hitches requiring a tool as it is quick release. I had always longed for a quick release mount, so perfect!

Great video. I've been looking for a way to carry my suitcase to my bus garage on my ebike for when I go on long overnight bus tours.

[kenvansanford]

I have the older travoy. And it works great I do like the 2020 travoy has better features. The stand and the mount is a great upgrade from the old one.. I do wish they would lower the prices on there bags a bit. But great trailer . The lady that did the review is very pretty 😊

[zerotarget]

I love your channel! Please keep making content!

[TheMichaelGrace]

That looks awesome! Nice solution for carting things around on the bike.

[JoeOsChannel]

I've been considering ordering one of these for a while now. Just browsed your channel a bit, you have good content. I've not owned a car now for over 20 years. This trailer looks like a good addition for me!
I build custom canoe and kayak paddles. One of the things I'd use this for is riding out to FedEx to ship paddles worldwide. Mounted to the rear rack on one of my bikes with the rack adaptor gives a nice extension and I should be able to transport the longer one piece kayak paddles that way.
Subscribed!

Nice review. I plan to purchase a unit based on your review.

[MrKam-jthm]

Do you have the full review video mentioned towards the end of the video? Interested in your take of the new version after using it 😊
