Traveling with a Dog

Julia enjoys traveling by bike with her dog and a lot of luggage. She has a model Hxxl bike trailer from us that’s equipped for heavy loads. In addition, the Hinterher was equipped with wheel guards that completely cover the wheels from the inside. This prevents the cargo—and especially the dog—from getting caught in the wheels. And, of course, this multifunctional bike trailer is also used for all kinds of everyday transport: from moving furniture to hauling bulky trash or yard waste from the garden.

Traveling by Bike with a Child

Anyone who goes on a cycling trip or a longer bike tour with kids knows the problem: The little ones want to ride on their own—until they no longer want to or can’t anymore. And then what? For Thomas, the answer was simple: Then the kids ride up front in the cargo bike, and their bikes go in the back on the large Hinterher trailer. More specifically, it’s a transporter built specifically for this purpose—namely, to transport bicycles. Anyone who looks at the route profile of Thomas’s bike trip will probably want to take a seat in the front of the cargo bike and let themselves be carried along.

In the Forest Near the Woodpile

Some people drive to the home improvement store.
We ride our bikes into the woods. 😄
A chainsaw, muscle power, and a trailer full of firewood. What more could you want?

We used a sturdy touring bike from Velotraum, the Hinterher Hmax bike trailer with heavy-duty equipment, and about 80 kg of wood. And Lorenz. With his Stihl.

Fishing by Bike

Fishing by Bike

Anyone who takes fishing seriously knows the problem. The really good spots are rarely right next to the parking lot. Most of the time, you have to go a little further—down a dirt road, across a meadow, along a path by the water. And then you just have to haul your gear: rod cases, tackle boxes, a chair, a bucket, a backpack. If you’re carrying a lot, you’ll have to haul it all at once or make several trips.

Family bike ride with the Tern GSD and a bike trailer

Which is better, a cargo bike or a bike trailer? We have a preference, but we’ll say it anyway: both! Because here we see another great example of how cargo bikes and trailers can complement each other perfectly. On a family bike ride, the question always comes up: who’s going to carry all the luggage, and don’t the kids want to ride on their own sometimes? But what happens if they can’t bike the whole way? Who gets to ride the bike then?

But we also see lots of other great uses in these lovely photos from the H. family. Who’s going to haul the Tern away when it needs to go to the shop? The trailer.

Beekeeping with a Bicycle Trailer

Beekeeping with a Bicycle Trailer

Many beekeepers have long since discovered the benefits of bike trailers. Perhaps this is partly because they often work close to nature and are on the move anyway. From our perspective, however, there are also very simple, practical reasons for this. In beekeeping, equipment needs to be moved frequently—often over short distances and along paths that are easily navigated by bike or handcart.

Transporting Firewood with a Bicycle Trailer

Here at Hinterher, we’re well-known for being big fans of the Hxxxl light model. That’s because this bike trailer is a real workhorse and perfectly suited for everyday use. Our customer Philipp uses it exactly as intended—as a true workhorse. Shown here with the especially sturdy stainless steel drawbar and our own stainless steel coupling system.

A Good-Luck Charm on Two Wheels: When the Chimney Sweep Does Everything by Bike

Anderl Raschke from Gilching, near Munich, gets everywhere by bike. The master chimney sweep spreads such good cheer that, during our photo shoot, joggers would sometimes stop and, following an old custom, rub the brass buttons on his chimney sweep’s uniform to bring themselves good luck.

From a kids' trailer to a cargo pro: The Gardena Hinterher Chariot Trailer

What comes after the two-seater? When the kids outgrow the classic child trailer, but the car has long since been scrapped, it’s time for custom-built solutions. Christian from Dresden faced exactly this challenge: Doing the weekly grocery shopping in the cramped child trailer was “less than ideal,” but he didn’t want to give up the familiar handling of a high handle and a sturdy jogger wheel for hikes.

The solution: A custom-built trailer based on our Hinterher axles and wheels, combined with a unique way to repurpose a handle (hint: snow shovel).

No More Foam Parties: The Spring-Loaded “Beer Cart”

Anyone who has ever tried to enjoy a freshly tapped beer from a keg that has just rumbled its way across the street for kilometers knows the frustration: Instead of beer, all that comes out is foam. The Theckenclub wasn’t willing to put up with that. Their homemade mobile beer cart was finally going to deliver beer again instead of foam.

After nearly a year of “maturing” (and patient guidance), the team finally retrofitted our suspension system. The result? Beer hikes are possible again.
