Crap! A Burley Travoy isn't supposed to fold this way. Any advice on how to repair this?
NB: Replacement parts will be hard to get in Madagascar, but good mechanics are plentiful.

A great deal on a used #BurleyTravoy on Craiglist currently.
The photos don't show a hitch, but ReRack has them for $19.99 right now.

Burley Travoy bike cargo trailer, comes with upper market bag and lower market bag. Fully collapsible. Works great, but has some light discoloration after years of use. Trailer and bags cost $535...
Last year I scored an absurdly good deal on a lightly used #BurleyTravoy cargo trailer.
While I wasn’t originally looking for one, the price was too good to pass up. I’ve been using it regularly for grocery runs and, really it’s so good. Wheel it right into the store, load up the bags on it, check out, load it back up again. Literally one second to attach/remove from my bike.
Obviously not for hauling kids or heroic #CarryShitOlympics loads but it’s just so convenient.
I tested the limit by bringing in my #BurleyTravoy trailer with its integrated shopping bags.
It’s a great system, although has a pretty high MSRP (I found mine super cheap on OfferUp and you can too).
I was strategic about which door I entered, which checkout line I went through (the one that is usually staffed by cool autistic people, seemingly intentionally) and which door I exited, so I didn’t have to interact with anyone with a fake-ass uniform/badge.
EDIT: Problem likely solved! :) (see comments - new rack hitch)
Hey #BikeTooter folks, does anyone have a #BurleyTravoy that didn't initially reach the hitch, and they created a workaround?
I have an old Travoy that needed a hitch, which I got for Christmas, but unfortunately the trailer can't reach the hitch because the eBike battery is in the way. It's not something that can be relocated. Has anyone else encountered this issue and found a solution? Thanks!
I recently scored a great deal on used #BurleyTravoy and was able to take it out on its first errand today.
Success!
I’m still surprised that there don’t appear to be many similarly designed cargo trailers on the market.
