Handcart

You can convert the Hxl from a bike trailer to a handcart in just a few seconds. To do this, simply reposition the drawbar. Thanks to the built-in stand, you can easily load or park it as a handcart.

Flat package

The Hxl can be folded into an extremely flat package in less than ten seconds. The wheels can be removed with a single click and securely fixed in two matching holes in the loading area. The drawbar is also very easy to remove. This means that the Hxl takes up hardly any space in the basement, trunk, or when traveling, yet is immediately ready to be used again.

Real-world examples

The Hxl is one of those bike trailers that is easy to use in everyday life thanks to its size. It expands the loading area compared to our bestseller, the Hmax, especially in terms of length, making it even more powerful without increasing its width.

Area of application & load capacity

You can configure the Hxl for three different applications and load capacities. In the standard configuration, we install plastic axle mounts. With the upgrade, we reinforce the drawbar mount and install a rigid stainless steel axle held in place by two high-quality aluminum clamping blocks. The Hxl becomes even stronger with our heavy-duty drawbar system (SL). This increases the load capacity to a total weight of 80 kg.

Regional manufacturing, sustainable business practices

Almost all components of the Hinterher are manufactured in our immediate vicinity. Only a small number of parts are sourced from Northern Italy and Sweden. Short supply routes, high environmental and social standards, local value creation, and outstanding technical expertise define our manufacturing approach.

Each Hinterher is assembled by our team in the west of Munich according to customer specifications. For shipping, we reuse cardboard and process it with our “green monster” into protective packing material. For us, true sustainability means building products that are made to last—and that can be repaired when needed.
