New! Aosom Elite II bike cargo trailer (Unboxing and more)
New! Aosom Elite II bike cargo trailer (Unboxing and more)
This is a video I made on my 18th birthday in Temple Terrace, Florida of my new trailer that I got for my bikes, It’s an Aosome Elite II cargo trailer, many other youtubers inspried me to make this video.
SHOUTOUTS TO TOTAL CONTROL 871, HUSKY SHEPARD, AND MANY OTHERS FOR INSPIRING ME TO DO THIS.
This video surpassed 1,000 views faster than I thought. It may have even passed my bike video.
Fast and jerky, but good overall coverage. Bearings do not come with any grease packing so I suggest you get some wheel bearing grease and pack them or face the consequences of failed bearings and or sheared axle shafts. For less than a $100.00 it is well worth the money and sturdy enough to do the average twice weekly grocery runs and more if you have other jobs. I bought mine in January of 2018 and use it often when I shop. I recommend it for bikers and trikers. They are great little workhorses! I also have a smaller Bob Yak style single wheel trailer also made in China, and it is my common use trailer. Either trailer works well with the single wheel being lighter and yet capable of most grocery runs or hauling smaller loads.
I pull both behind my Catrike Expedition and recommend either depending on your load requirement. I did buy a waterproof BOB Yak bag for the smaller trailer as the OEM bag was only water resistant. The Aosom Elite ll is not waterproof, but for short trips it will hold out the water.
Fun fact for ya. A guy was shot and killed right there……always good to be in a safe nabor hood 😂😂
This was a fun video to watch! You go boy!
Yes. Keep the bloopers in! 😀 You can go faster, just put some weight in it and mind your clearance, turns, and anticipate stops.
thax redneck was actualy looking to do same thing with my minibike 👍👍good video
I had bought one and I ran into a problem …I had no where to put the kickstand. I current tour with a Trek 520-Disc and the usual spot where it goes, there isn’t enough "meat" to adapt the kickstand, not-to-mention being blocked by cable/s. Anywhoz …I later bought the same Aosom-version of this trailer that happened to be seat post mountable, THEN I took the swing arm off this trailer(in the video), and DIY’d it to act as a tandem trailer.
I’m trying to get my 80lb franken pit bull to ride in it
Very nice love the trailer bud

"Catiewhoampus"…..Hahaha I haven’t heard that phrase in years!
Dude I got no directions with it somebody help me!!!
Fantastic job Alex!! Chromey wheels …LOL. Also congrats on breaking the "2 minute trailer review barrier" so to speak. As you may know that what few videos there are of this and other bicycle trailers for whatever reason they rarely ever go past 2 minutes and show and in-depth comprehensive review of the product. it’s kind of why my two videos covering the unboxing and assembly are so long. but you have taken the production value of the unboxing video to the next level.
The only thing that I would have liked to have seen was exactly how you have the hitch bolted onto the motor scooter. But all the rest is spot on. FYI ALERT WARNING!!! I know you said something about the rain fly cover having a little dirt on it coming out the box. if you decide to wash the cover do so in a bucket of cold water wisk detergent all by itself. the dye that is used is extremely cheap and will bleed if you try to wash this in a washing machine with any other garment. Once the trailer is weighted down with cargo you really shouldn’t have to worry about instability issues. you will however have to be mindful of your speed when taking right-angle corners.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND BEST WISHES MATE!
Axles break real easy
that looks like an improved model of the one I dragged down a mountain bike trail with a car battery inside to power my mega LED.. lol, I like it, but I wish it mounted to the seatpost still.
Very cool Alex. Enjoy your birthday.
Yak Yak Yak
*WITH detergent….not Wisk. Typo LOL. Any laundry detergent will do just fine.
Get a double kickstand it will hold your bike perfectly in place
new drinking game, every time he says " Total control 871", take a shot.
very good idea
U don’t sound to bright
Thanks for the video just got one, The bearings are *sealed* bearing, if you want to re-grease them there are many videos out there to show you how to re-grease sealed bearings. search "grease sealed bearings". Thanks for your video.
Nice, thanks for the demonstration.
It’s cost, phenomenal. It costs as much as the fender on my recumbent trike.. Lol.. Looking forward to hauling it.
Since it’s Friday night you’re young and have nothing better to do 🤣
