Press Releases: QUIK-PAK As of May 1, 2008 Quik-Pak planning and final samples have been made. The factory is setting up to begin production. Stay in touch for updates!! Our apologies for the delays in production.
I am personally very happy to report the return of Quik Pak trailers. This has always been one of my favorites and it's been resurrected by Ray Quick and Amazing Wheels. The new version should be available early next year and has a lot of improved features. The cable that used to run between the wheels has been replaced by a steel rod. The wheels are now mounted to a chromoly wheel mount with adjustable ride height rather than directly to frame and there is a new hoop that holds the fabric up when the trailer is less than full. There is also a new hitch that helps to prevent tipping. Amazing Wheels now owns their own factory in Taiwan and is owned by the same man that owns Optima. That will also mean cheaper Optimas starting in December. More on that tomorrow. Bryan J. Ball (Bent Rider Online, September, 2007)
Recumbent Cyclist News, January-February, 2003 ...The Quik-Pak uses an X-Ray aluminum frame. It results in a trailer hat is amazingly strong for its weight. The trailer can be disassembled and folded for shipping or airplane travel... I took the Quik-Pak on three tours this summer, it was fantastic... The Quik-Pak pulled very well and it didn't change my handling at all while cycling. The Quik-Pak handles well empty, full (I've hauled as much as 60 lbs.), slow (climbing passes), on fast descent, and on gravel. With a 55 lb. load the tongue weight is only eight pounds (3600kg.) which adds very little weight to your bike. The hitch is easy to use. A bracket is held in place by the rear skewer or axle , and the trailer attaches to it in seconds with a quick release. Ray has used a Delrin hitch so there are no noises at all from the trailer. The wheels are of excellent quality. Ray has included some hand extras to the Quik-Pak trailer. There is a map compartment for valuables, a reflective strip on the back of the cover, and elastic bungees on the top to hold a jacket or towel that needs drying. If you are looking for a great touring trailer the Quik-Pak is an excellent choice. It is a classy trailer that tows like a dream. It loads quickly, hitches in seconds, is totally waterproof, and does not affect the handling of your bicycle in any way. Add to this Ray's attention to quality and responsiveness, and you can't go wrong.
