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.

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.

Street Astronomy in Belgium

We’re actually a little proud: The Royal Observatory of Belgium is celebrating its 200th anniversary and has come up with a special way to bring astronomy directly to the public for this occasion. Spontaneous “pop-up events” are now taking place on the streets of Brussels, where curious passersby can take a look through highly sensitive telescopes for free.

Suspension for saxophone

A professional musician came to us with a very specific request: He wanted to safely transport his valuable baritone saxophone to a performance by bike—without every bump in the road endangering the instrument’s delicate mechanics. Anyone who has ever held such an instrument in their hands knows that vibrations are the natural enemy of precision. A special bike trailer for transporting a special musical instrument.

When a pony replaces a bike: A very special Hxxl

Usually, the roles are clearly defined for us: A bike trailer belongs behind a “bike.” But every now and then, customers come to us with ideas we would never have thought of ourselves. In this case, the question was: Can we modify an Hxxl bike trailer so that it can be pulled by a Shetland pony?
