Travelling with your dog

22 October 2019 | By |

Katrin always travels with her dog Napoli. She shares her travelling experience with a bike and trailer.

When Katrin first tested her UNO 100 trailer, she used it to carry her luggage. For her, it was the ideal solution to travel through the Alps with a tent and stuff. And when you’re staying in the same place for a few days, you just release the trailer from your bike and go for a ride.

Katrin chose the UNO 100 instead of the STD 100 because the frame of the UNO 100 was lower and her dog Napoli could easily climb inside by himself. The UNO 100 isn’t equipped with a shock absorber so Katrin used a thick mattress for Napoli to sit or lie on it.
On bumpy roads, Napoli still tends to sit instead of lying.

 

“I was very excited to try the trailer. Checking the world wide web for the combination „dog“ and „single-wheel trailer“, I couldn‘t find any comprehensive information about the pro and cons. The videos I saw did either show a dog, that was fixed tightly in his trailer or a much lightweight version of my 20 kg friend.

The UNO 100 is not originally designed to carry a dog but it does the job perfectly. Just be careful when your dog moves around, it might be a little unconfortable when you’re cycling fast. You need to get used to your passenger’s movements.

On Instagram, Katrin found this beautiful picture of Frida and Tilda, riding in an Aevon STD 100. The dogs are so small that they both fit in one trailer together. Their owner chose a container to protect them when he is braking. It also protects the dogs from the sun and the rain.

Testing the UNO 100 in Germany

23 May 2019 | By |

I met Katrin and her dog Napoli at the Eurobike last year. She told me she was looking for a single-wheel bike trailer in which she could carry her dog around.

Aevon trailers were not designed to carry dogs initially, they were made for luggage. But we also carry Aevon’s dog sometimes and we find many people do the same now.

We sent Katrin the UNO 100 trailer, the road version of our trailers, without a shock-absorber. She chose this version because the frame is not very high, so it’s easier for the dog to climb inside.
bike trailer

Katrin made her first tests and here are some of her first thoughts :

I first needed to get used to it. When the dog moves, I need to adapt and the dog feels every tilt of the bike as well.

The assembly was generally quite easy for me. A manual is delivered with the trailer.

The waterproof bag fits the trailer perfectly and has a huge capacity. In this video, I chose to fill it with a tent, sleeping bag, cooker and dishes, hiking shoes, some clothes. And I still had some space left !

 

The attachment to the seat post makes a big difference to most other load bike trailers that are to be attached to the bikes’ back wheel.
Outstanding is the narrow radius of the trailer behind the bike. It is easily possible to change direction on small paths.

But the narrow radius must be considered when riding a curve. If there is an obstacle in the way, it might happen that you cycle around it but get stuck with the trailer. I guess this is just a matter of getting familiar to it.
aevon trailers

Riding the Aevon Uno 100 in my home area on bumpy surfaces like roots, narrow trails and two short and easy downhill paths I felt really fine. Downhill it was unscary. Passing the roots of course the trailer hopped, but the trailer is initially planned to ride on roads and flat surfaces. I could imagine, that the STD 100 and KIT L80 versions do perform much better on such surfaces.

Riding the narrow, bushy pathes I was quite impressed about the manoeuvrability.

I really appreciate that you can lay down the bike on the side as MTB’s usually have no stand. With a two-wheel trailer you always need something to lean the bike against.”

Test of the UNO 100 in Germany

15 January 2019 | By |

Hans has decided to test the Aevon trailer UNO 100 after seeing it at the Eurobike show 2018.

bike trailer

At this year’s Eurobike, I came across Aevon‘s booth. Their bike trailers are made for single-tracks, contrary to the trailers I have known so far. I decided to test the UNO 100, the lowest-priced model from Aevon. It is made of steel and intended for a use on roads.

When you unpack the trailer you need to set up the beam (connecting the trailer to the bike) and the rear wheel with its mudguard, it’s done in a few minutes. I recommend that you add the quick release for the hitch, it makes it easier to connect and disconnect the trailer without using tools. If you’re going on holiday, it seems a really good device.
I first went for a ride of about 15km around my place : the Rhine-Hesse, in Germany. I immediately cycled uphill for 4km with a 7% gradient and went again downhill and was pleasantly surprised. You don’t really feel the trailer behind you.
aevon trailer
I then tested the UNO 100 trailer for an everyday use, loaded it for my shopping, parked near my supermarket, went for regular rides. I checked the usual bike paths in my area. The real challenge is the usual for anyone who cycles regularly : sharing the road with other users (cars and others bikes). That’s already an issue when you’re not equipped with a trailer but you need to keep in mind that your gear is much longer than usual, especially when you’re turning. In the end, I can say it went rather smoothly considering the load your trailer enables to carry.

My conclusion is : the UNO 100 is surprisingly pleasant to use. You just need to get used to the length of the trailer behind you and adapt the way you cycle.”

From Scotland to Lille : the movie

29 January 2018 | By |

Elisa & Valentin share with us their adventures by bike and Aevon trailer. From Scotland to England, from Holland to the North of France, they tested the transport of their trailer by plane, by train and even by ferry :

zp8497586rq
zp8497586rq

Their trip enabled them to test their material in all weather conditions as rain was falling in Scotland but most of all in Holland.
For this kind of trip, especially on the road, they recommend to use the UNO 100 trailer. It helped them to carry their stuff but also to start a conversation with people. Some of them allowed the couple to camp in their gardens. Their trailer was a real curiosity.

They found Scottish landscapes beautiful but it was hard to live with the ‘midges’, which were particularly greedy at night.
Elisa & Valentin are athletic but they rarely use their bikes. However they quickly cycled for miles at a time. Downhill they reached up to 70km/h with the trailer.

Their trip made them take the plane, the train and then the ferry, attesting that the trailer can follow you anywhere.

The UNO 100 is dedicated to a use on passable roads because it’s made of steel and isn’t equipped with a shock absorber. For your trips on hard tracks, prefer a trailer made of aluminium and equipped with a shock absorber such as the STD 100 or the KIT L80. The KIT L80 is handy for plane trips as it’s entirely foldable.

From Holland to Lille

25 October 2017 | By |

Elisa & Valentin have cycled around Scotland with their bike and trailer UNO 100. After a few weeks, they decided to reach Holland by taking a boat from Newcastle, in England.

Holland bike trip

We cycled in Holland for about 300km before the rain pushed us out of the country. We managed to sleep once in the open air but there is very few wild space in Holland so it’s quite difficult to find a space with a tent. Everything single space is used, either by houses or by fields.
In Brussels, we stopped at some friends’ house and discovered the city. The center was beautiful and we had a very nice weather. After that we cycled through Belgium and met some amazing forests along the road. We spent one night in a camping site in a small village.

To get to Lille, it was possible to cycle along a canal. It became very hot and sunny, we even had to find our sunscreen again, at the bottom of our bag. In Lille we met some family, they cycled with us for the last 30km. In all, we cycled for 2080km with our UNO 100 trailer and are quite proud, as we very seldom cycled before that.
For the winter, we would like to find a job so we can wait until Spring and get back on our bikes.

Holland is the country of the bike with its numerous cycle paths and ferries to cross the many canals along the way. It is very nice to cycle there. Unfortunately, you have to make sure to choose the right season and pick up places to stay at night.

From Edinburgh to Inverness

5 September 2017 | By |

Elisa and Valentin chose to travel by bike and UNO 100 bike trailer to cross Scotland. They have already travelled in far away countries, such as New-Zealand, Madagascar and Senegal, it’s the first time they will travel by bike.

bike trip

After setting up their Aevon trailer directly at the airport, they began to cycle in the direction of Inverness, a trip of about 350km.

“Our nights here were sometimes hard and particularly cold. Going bivouacking is not easy, as we’re being attacked by the ‘midges’. This morning it was only 4 degrees when we woke up. But the sun is up and we haven’t had any rain yet, which seems incredible.
We followed the cycle paths all along the way and the landscapes are beautiful.

travelling by bike

Tonight we’ll sleep at someone’s home, so we can take a real shower. On our way, a couple of Scottish people invited us once to take a shower at their place, we felt very welcome.

Their accent is sometimes hard to understand, even if we speak English. Often we don’t understand a word they say.

Travelling by bike is a very nice discovery and we love this rythm. After only a few days, we feel like we have already travelled for several weeks. The trailer follows us, Valentin sometimes reached 58km/h downhill with it.

If the weather stays nice, we will go up north, in the direction of Durness. Maybe we’ll get the chance to meet the Loch Ness monster !”

The UNO 100 Aevon trailer can carry up to 35kg of luggage for an initial weight of only 7kg. The hitch attached to the seat post makes it particularly easy to handle.

Trip on the ViaRhôna with our UNO 100

13 June 2017 | By |

The ViaRhôna is a cyclist path of 815km that goes from the Leman lake to the beaches of the Méditerrannée along the Rhône. There you’ll see the beautiful landscapes of the Alps, the vineyards of the famous Côtes du Rhône and the beaches of Camargue.

Dominique has chosen the UNO 100 bike trailer for this trip.
bike travel

We have used the trailer Bob for a few trips but this year we decided to change for the UNO 100 bike trailer to get a better handling ability.
We tested it for 10 days along the ViaRhôna with rainy days and high winds.
Well, it was a real pleasure ! Easy to use, the material is very strong and the bag is perfectly waterproof. We also found that this trailer was easier to use and to pull.

Our next project : a trip of 5 weeks in Scandinavian countries, with our UNO 100 trailer of course !”

A bike trailer for fat bikes

25 July 2016 | By |

The Aevon team has developed a longer beam to adapt its trailers to more specific bikes.
Fat bikes with their big tyres and oversize frames, 29″ bikes or city bikes equipped with a rear rack will all be able to ride with an Aevon trailer.

bike trailer
bike trip

By extending the beam, Aevon follows the trend with more and more 29″ bikes and more and more fat bikes on the market. Depending on the height of the rack, some bikes needed to remove the rack in order to adapt an Aevon trailer, this is no longer a problem.

The beam is the system connecting the frame of the trailer to the seat post of the bike. The hitch then links the beam to the seat post. This system is particularly efficient as the bike remains easy to handle in all circumstances. Mountain bikers can still ride on all types of tracks as the trailer will follow them anywhere.
The hitch rotates around the seat post, which makes it possible to make a U-turn, for example if you are riding on a narrow track :

 

Bike travellers choose Aevon brand so they can leave safely with a high quality material. The only remaining difficulty will be to choose between the three Aevon bike trailers, all different : the UNO 100 in steel is perfect for a road use, the STD 100 in aluminium can be used for mountain biking with a shock-absorber, the KIT L80 in aluminium is entirely foldable to follow you on the plane or other means of transport. Whatever your bike trip project, you will find the one that suits you the best.
