Review: Works great to convert my old Avenir cargo trailer for a Burley hitch - I selected the "round" option for my use. I have an old Avenir bike trailer which I had bought secondhand. It originally came with a crappy hitch that clamped directly to the chainstay and didn't work very well. Weighing my options, it looked like the Burley steel hitch was the only one to clear the eyelets on my Giant's unusual dropouts, so I tried this system out. I was able to bolt it directly to the trailer, and when paired with the steel hitch on my bike, had no trouble at all. It's a little finicky to get installed at first, due to the elastomer's flex, but getting the old one off was about the same. Note that Burley and Avenir/Raleigh probably don't endorse such a combination, but it worked great for me. The elastomer is about 21.5mm in diameter. This fit my trailer's drawbar just right, which has an inner diameter of 23mm. If you need a way to make your old Avenir (or other) trailer more workable, this is the ticket. It is a little on the expensive side, but you get what you pay for. The quality makes up for it. I'd definitely recommend.
Review: Great replacement for the "Classic" Burley hitch. - I purchased this along with the "standard" hitch to replace the "classic" hitch for a 10-year-old Burley trailer to easily switch the trailer between my and my wife's new bikes without being hard on the rear frame and paint. Pros: One-time installation on the trailer is easy. It works solidly and silently with the standard Burley hitch. It spares your frames and paint from the wear and tear of the classic hitch. Con: Repeat installation to the standard hitch is a bit awkward as a bike with the kickstand down will be tilted and this tow arm requires a vertical position to insert the linchpin. It takes a little bit of wiggle and effort (including holding the bike up off the kickstand) to get the pin in. Overall: A good alternative to buying a new trailer for those with older trailer models.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works also with XTerra Trailers
*by D***. on March 8, 2011*

We have an XTerra trailer we purchased at Costco because we simply can't afford a high end one. However, my biggest complaint was the clamp on the XTerra. Not only did it scratch the heck out of our paint, was hard to use, and regularly came lose, but when I bought a new bike with disc brakes it no longer fit on my bike. This product solved our problems! It's literally a bolt on part...remove the old attachment and spring, slide this in, tighten the nut and it's done. I then ordered two of the Burley hitches, one for each bike: Burley Bicycle Trailer Hitch (Standard, Forged) Best money I ever spent for this trailer. Now my wife and I can move it between bikes with a simply cotter pin. Tows better (no bouncing), easier to attach/detach, and an all around pleasure to use. For reference, here's the trailer we have: Xterra Bicycle Trailer with Jogging Conversion - Black/ Red
