Frequently Asked Questions - Companion Travel Klarfit

What is the maximum load of the Klarfit Companion Travel trailer?

The maximum authorised load is 40 kg. Never exceed this weight.

Can I transport a child in this trailer?

No, this trailer is not designed to transport people. It is intended only for cargo transport.

How do I assemble the trailer to my bike?

Remove the axle caps, push the wheels until they click. Insert the drawbar into the support and secure it with the pins. Attach the hitch to the rear axle of the bike (quick release or nut) then hook the drawbar and safety strap.

What tyre pressure should I use?

The recommended pressure is between 1.70 and 2.00 bar (25 to 30 PSI). Check regularly before each trip.

Can the trailer be used as a basket?

Yes, the drawbar can be positioned 90° upwards to serve as a basket, or at 45° for towing in trailer mode.

How do I attach the safety strap?

Pass the strap through the rear base of the bike and hook it to the attachment on the drawbar. This secures the trailer in case of disconnection.

Which accessories are sold separately?

Matching bags are available under references 10034494 (blue/black) and 10034495 (grey/black).

Does the trailer fit all bikes?

It fits most bikes with a standard rear axle. For quick release or nut axles, follow assembly instructions. If in doubt, consult a dealer.

How do I maintain the trailer?

Check before each use: tyre pressure, tightness of fixings, condition of hitch. Clean with a damp cloth; avoid harsh products.

What should I do if the hitch does not hold firmly on my bike?

Do not use the trailer. Contact your bike dealer or the manufacturer for correct installation. A poorly secured hitch can cause accidents.

• Check the condition of the bicycle and trailer before each use.
  • Always ride defensively. During use, observe local traffic regulations.
• If you have a trailer, you will need additional stopping distance.
• Practice your trailer before use until you are familiar with it.
• Make sure that your load is secured before driving. Do not exceed the maximum load weight.
• Make sure that you use a suitable bicycle. If in doubt, consult your local bicycle dealer or manufacturer.
  • After assembly and before riding, check that the hitch is fully engaged.
• Check the tyre pressure regularly. Make sure that the tyre pressure is always between 1.70 - 2.00 bar (25 - 30 PSI).
• If possible, use the trailer only on slippery roads. Avoid kerbs, potholes or uneven surfaces.
