We’ve just completed an enclosed trailer for the Selwyn Sports Trust as part of their Community Cycle Skills Programme.

The trailer’s been custom built with removable bike racks and a side opening door, making it perfect for transporting bikes to recreational events and even doubling as a mobile office when needed.
