Howdy,
This morning i received my long-awaited bob trailer. I ordered the Bob Yak but when i opened the box, it turns out that they have sent me an Ibex instead. i have been trying to contact the bike shop that i ordered it off (they are in a different county to me) but cant get through.
anyways, should the option arise, should i stick with the Bob Ibex, is this suitable for touring?
i have 2 concerns about it:
1: its 1.5kg heavier than the Yak, though in all honsety, this is not too much worry to me. sure i will probably lose that in body weight in the space of a fortnight on my tour of australia anways.
2: my main worry is that given a bounce on the road, it may oscillate at higher speeds when fully loaded.
Has anyone experience of a Bob Ibex on the road fully loaded? Will it be suitable for my needs?
Thanks!
