How do the N-line trailers pull/perform ? I really like the idea of it following in the bike's tracks. pros/cons please.
Thanks in advance

Chip had one for awhile. Might message him directly. Username SBB.
A friend of mine in NW Texas had one also. He loved it. I rode his bike one time for about an hour with the trailer hooked up. Was pulling my first Bushtec with some regularity then. The N-Line wasn't bad. Liked the Bushtec much better though.

I had an N Line Trailer for years. Probably pulled 10K miles. It does pull great , but it does have issues when starting, stopping, turning around at low speeds, & removing & hooking it up with the trailer loaded. It's like a wheelbarrow. When pulling it you just need to be aware that it is part of the bike with only 1 wheel that it can & will in the right situation, give you problems.
I now pull trailers with 2 wheels & am more at ease with these trailers. My preference is American Legend & Bushtec Trailers, Sportstar & Roadstar.
Hope this helps.
Ride safe, Dan

Thanks for the info. Hadn't considered the wheel barrow effect.

The above pretty well sums it up.
Sold my N-line and bought a Bushtec.
I've had the Bushtec 6 years, took it to Bushtec for new tires/bearings and a tune up this year. The fine folks at Bushtec found a few issues and repaired a 16 year old trailer under warranty. My first trailer was an American Legend, second trailer was the N-Line and the last trailer is a Bushtec.

Thanks for all the info. I think I will look into the bushtec. Have heard lots of good about them.
