I decided to buy a PAv trailer for my 150 D. I looked around a bit and couldn't find any originals for sale so I ordered a re-pro out of Sweden because I didn't want to deal with the nasty Asian ones.
It all went very smoothly until the trailer arrived: it was a nasty Asian one sold out of Sweden! I got mad and raised Cain and convinced the seller to refund 40% of the purchase price.
I then went and found an original -- also in Sweden -- and ordered it. It arrived in great shape and that's the one I'm getting painted up for the Lammy.
However, that leaves me with one extra PAv clone trailer. The box itself isn't too bad, it's just the frame that's crap. I am willing to make up a new frame, swing arm, pivots and hub from scratch and donate it to the club if someone else will agree to finish and paint the trailer. That way we can carry supplies during our rally and not have to use cars/trucks instead of riding.
Sound OK?
Anyone interested in doing the body work and painting?
Hey John, I know a little something about working with steel, and may even be able to strike an arc on this little trailer. Let me know how I can help. Painting included.
I've done alot of prep work on my bikes before paint and would be willing to do my part. I might even be able to strike a deal on getting the paint on the body done professionally. I will ask.
