The driving characteristics of a bicycle trailer are crucial for stability, safety and comfort .
The VEOLO Cargo Trailer has been designed to work optimally in every driving situation . An outstanding feature is the damping system, which has been combined with a low center of gravity, a wide track and a sophisticated frame geometry.
The elastomer – ensures gentle cushioning under any load
The damping material in the VEOLO Cargo is a special elastomer that both dampens and springs the bike trailer. This choice of material offers many advantages: it is durable, weatherproof and ensures smooth driving. At the beginning, the elastomer reacts softly, i.e. with low force, which easily compensates for bumps. With greater load, for example from a heavier load, the elastomer becomes increasingly firmer and thus dampens more intensively, which provides additional stability. This means that the Cargo trailer can be driven reliably even with greatly varying loads - from light to heavy loads.
Another advantage: the damping works perfectly even with maximum load. A special, integrated stop safely directs excess forces into the frame. In addition, the elastomer is slightly pre-tensioned, which further improves the overall performance and damping efficiency of the system. The elastomer can be easily replaced if necessary. This makes maintenance of the cargo trailer flexible and ensures long-lasting performance.
Direct integration into the frame for maximum efficiency
The damping system is integrated directly into the trailer's aluminum frame to save space and work efficiently. This integration allows the forces to be introduced directly into the frame, making the system extremely efficient while making optimal use of the available space. The damping is thus effective directly at the stress points and leads to significantly better force distribution and greater stability. This space-saving solution contributes to the compact design of the suspended bicycle trailer while ensuring high performance.
A low center of gravity ensures stability against tipping
Thanks to its low center of gravity, the VEOLO Cargo remains stable even when cornering. The loading area is below the wheel axles. This means it tips less, even on uneven terrain or during quick maneuvers. This offers a significant increase in safety and driving comfort compared to bicycle transport trailers with a higher center of gravity, which are therefore more susceptible to tipping.
Independent suspension improves comfort and control
In addition, the independent suspension of the sprung bike trailer ensures that each wheel can react independently to uneven surfaces. Compared to models with a rigid axle, where both wheels react together to ground irregularities, the independent suspension ensures a more precise and stable ride, as shocks are only transmitted locally to the affected wheel. This improves comfort and control.
Light camber and wide track – for more stability
The wide track and the slight camber provide additional stability and grip. The camber allows the wheels to roll more stably and evenly in curves. It also provides additional steering stability, which is particularly beneficial when driving fast or changing direction suddenly. Combined with the wide track, which means the wheels are further apart, the bike trailer for off-road use is even more stable.
Thanks to this combination, the VEOLO can stabilize itself better in curves, so that it tips and rolls less . The wide track also ensures better traction and a more precise ride on different surfaces, which is particularly advantageous in changing terrain and road conditions.
Conclusion: Optimal driving characteristics of the VEOLO bicycle trailer through innovative technologies
The riding characteristics of the VEOLO Cargo are the result of a careful combination of advanced damping technologies, sophisticated geometry and clever design features. The elastomer damping system not only reacts to different loads, but also offers a comfortable riding style thanks to its progressive characteristic curve, regardless of the load. The integration of the damping system directly into the frame maximizes efficiency and minimizes space requirements.
The low center of gravity, the slight camber and the wide track mean that the suspended bicycle trailer remains particularly stable and tip-proof, which leads to significantly improved driving dynamics. In combination with the independent wheel suspension, the result is a transport trailer that offers excellent driving characteristics both on uneven terrain and in fast corners. The VEOLO Cargo is therefore a well-thought-out, technological solution that is characterized by driving comfort, safety and stability.
