Budget Bicycle is happy to stock Burley Travoy Urban Ultility Trailer and we have it on display at our Regent St store.
You could say it’s a trailer and bicyclists have been attaching various trailers to their bikes for as long as there were trailers and bikes, but the research and industrial design time Burley spent is evident. Officially, the Travoy is called an Urban Commuter Trailer and is intended to get groceries, errands, and so on. We feel one could shake off that urban label and tour with it, with the reason being they thought of what people do with trailers and sell snap on/off bags for that purpose. Ride up to a store, quick release it, fill it with groceries, rehitch, and ride home.
Urban Ultility Trailer | Load it up!
Load it up with your computer, camera, gear, and ride to a shoot or with a change of clothes to a meeting. The Travoy is designed to convert into a rolling cart by a simple twist of the wrist, allowing you to take the trailer with you to use as a shopping cart. It hitches to the seat post of any bike, and detaches easily when you reach your destination.
Advantages of a Urban Ultility Trailer
Weighing only 9.8 lbs, the urban bike trailer stands on its own when loaded or can be folded down to briefcase size to carry with you indoors.

We were impressed by three things: its compactness, its tiny weight, and the convenience of the triple folding mechanism.
The Travoy quick-releases and folds up like a folding bike. You could pack a bike and the trailer into a storage locker, or into a small apartment. As a stand-alone, you can wheel the trailer around the aisles of a store, onto the bus or right into the office.
