Noggy - LOL! Although I don't fancy having my balls near that bar in an emergency brake!! :eek :eek
Red - the tow hitch and trailer are replacing my panniers, make my life easier and comfier. So the load is only slightly increased, as drag. Although I haven't pulled it yet, the chap who towed it behind his bike from Basignstoke said it was nicer to tow, and lighter than his own one! In other words: a keeper.
As for weight, the trailer will be taking some of the load through its own axle. It might even work out lighter on the suspension this way!!
