How do I get my Single Wheel trailer to operate faster than the 45-50 MPH rating on the tire?
I’ve been asked this question a couple of times. So far, I’ve found of over 20 manufacturers. While each and every trailer manufacturer had differences in frame, suspension, or the wheel assembly itself, there is one common element. There is an angle that all the manufacturers all came upon. In all cases (with the exception of the scooter trailers) the angle that the fork attaches from wheel assembly to the wheel touching the ground is approximately the same. I’m only able to hypothesis at this point, but each of the respective manufacturers must have tested this angle in an attempt to improve on it and increase the speed and safety of their respective product. The only thing rated at the 45-50 MPH speed is the tire itself.
