The only thing that I think that the Burnley excels in is in looking good from a distance
Thanks for reviving the thread! I think you might be the only person who feels that way. I don't know Wike, personally. My Burley trailer is modded from the exact same trailer I used to take my son down dirt fire trails in when he was younger. He just turned 29! I'm not sure I agree with your assessment that it's a surprisingly cheap product, though Burley does make entry-level products. My trailer was top-of-the-line, and its build quality shows! An amazing bit of kit...nearly 30 years on that still hauls lots of weight. Maybe not tons, but definitely 100+ pounds, on occasion. What's a Wike?
