Hamax bike trailer models

A bike trailer needs to deliver on several mandatory features - safety, comfort for the child (as well as the adult doing the pulling) and dryness. These necessities are de rigueur in every Hamax kids bike trailer. However, of course, this brand goes further! Every Hamax bike trailer looks stylish, allows plenty of storage, enables the child to sit up or recline, and many models (like the Hamax Outback) will even double as a stroller. So, for fantastic versatility, smoothness of travel and great security and safety features, choose Hamax!

How to attach a bike trailer?

The good news is that Hamax bike trailer attachment system works with standard 12mm diametre thru-axles, so there is no need to buy any other converter (as is the case with some kids’ trailer systems). If you have disc brakes, then the process is a little more involved - for quick-release or hooded dropouts, it’s fairly straightforward!

  • Remove the quick release from the left side of the bike’s rear axle
  • Place the hitch between the quick release or nut and frame
  • Put the quick release or nut back on and tighten as outlined by bike manufacturer’s instructions
  • Point the hitch to the rear
  • Maintain an alignment between the bike arm and hitch that is as straight as possible

    To mount wheel guards:
  • Place the two wheel guards in the two holes on the side of the frame
  • Fasten the screw from the bottom inside of the frame

    What is the weight limit for a bike trailer?

    The typical weight limit for a Hamax bike trailer is 40kg. However, Hamax also recommends that the minimum age of your passenger is six months.
