Richard Arns - 10/31/2008 Hello,
Very courteous and prompt service!
I received my new Burley Flatbed a couple days ago, I liked the looks and feel of it right out of the carton. Very light for its overall size and quite sturdy. Not to mention cool looking too!
In a very short time I assembled the few parts that were not already set. I waited until the weather warmed a bit and went for a ride after attaching it to my Specialized Hybrid Bike. It was a very smooth ride!
Today I loaded about 50 pounds on it and rode for a few miles. Also was a very smooth ride, perhaps even a bit more so with the added weight for 'stability." Tried it attached to my Specialized Sequoia Road Bike as well. Great trailer!!!!!
I have been shopping by bike for some years. Most of my shopping is within 10 -12 miles round trip. Now I can pick up even more things locally. Can't wait to go to the local nursery supply and bring back my necessities in the Spring!
Did I say it is a great trailer?
Michael Croxford - 07/12/2008 I ordered the Burley Flatbed; it arrived quickly and as promised (as soon as the stock arrived) and I hooked it up and was cruising that night. I love it! I'm heading to the grocery store today and also picking up a pallet of flowers to plant. Josh recognized that one of the bikes I might be towing with, a Burley road bike, had dropouts that required the alternative hitch which works just as well on my other bikes. I can only imagine that, purchasing it somewhere else, I would have gotten the standard hitch and been disappointed. Thanks Josh!!
Jill Bunnell - 06/21/2008 I love the Burley Flatbed. I use it to carry groceries (up to 100 lbs!) and I also put my soft-sided dog crate on it so my dogs can go with me when I ride. It arrived almost completely put together and it was very easy to follow the directions to finish the job. Love it!
Jeffrey Murkve - 05/19/2008 Wow, great trailer! The quality and design are really good. I'm looking forward to putting many miles on it this year! It arrived very quickly and was easy to set up. When I put in on my bike for the initial ride, I couldn't even feel it behind me, it is so light. For the price I don't think you can find anything better!
Kelly Richeson - 02/06/2008 I chose this trailer because for my needs it offered the most versatility. I spent a great deal of time researching models and prices and without a doubt, Biketrailershop.com had the best price at the time of purchase. I frequently purchase various items online and I can honestly say that this was the fastest shipping of a product I have ever experienced. Josh provides an amazing consumer experience and I will recommend this site without hesitation to my friends. Keep up the awesome customer service!
