Test result preview
The transport trailer from the Juskys brand impresses with its versatility and robust construction. With a coupling for 26- and 28-inch bicycles and a sturdy frame, it can be loaded as a bicycle trailer with up to 40 kg or as a hand trolley with up to 80 kg . The smooth-running 16-inch pneumatic wheels ensure effortless manoeuvring. The product is weatherproof and equipped with a tarpaulin to protect against light rain. Practical details such as the powder coating as corrosion protection, the generous loading area of 90 litres and six reflectors make it the ideal companion for a wide range of transport tasks. Only the assembly instructions could be revised to make assembly easier. Nevertheless, the transport trailer impresses with its combination of stability, weather resistance and easy handling.
Advantages
- Versatile in use
- Large loading area (90 litres)
- Sturdy construction
- Easy to manoeuvre
- Weatherproof
Disadvantages
- No stand
- Assembly instructions somewhat inaccurate
The test
General information
We took a close look at and tested the product in a practical test. In the following, we take a closer look at the features and impressions. From the packaging, materials and quality to the range of functions and handling, the product is subjected to our test procedure.
To give you a quick overview, we work with a points system. The maximum achievable score per area is 100 points. The final overall score is calculated from the average of all tested features, taking into account the respective weighting.

The first impression
Packaging and contents
Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

The transport trailer is carefully packed. The sturdy cardboard box offers sufficient protection during transport. Although unnecessary packaging waste has been avoided, the use of plastic film could possibly be a point of criticism for some consumers. The product packaging contains the individual components of the transport trailer (drawbar, reflectors, wheels, transport tray) including a coupling (without connecting buckle) and tarpaulin. In addition, a multilingual, illustrated instruction manual is included, the assembly instructions of which definitely require a more detailed description.

Unboxing
The transport trailer is characterised by an attractive, timeless design. However, it should be noted that the transport tray was delivered dirty and that metal pellets and dirt trickled out of the individual components. The workmanship is very good, with no clearly visible defects such as scratches, dents or unclean transitions. The materials used appear stable and make a robust impression. Although no explicit information is given on the sustainability of the product, the high-quality workmanship suggests a certain longevity.

*Themaximum score is 100 points
As part of our practical test, we tested the transport trailer in detail and documented the results using the specified test methods. Assembling the trailer proved to be relatively intuitive and could be carried out independently, although more detailed instructions would be desirable. The coupling is suitable for 26- and 28-inch bicycles ; an additional connecting clamp is required for other bicycle sizes. When used as a hand trolley , we noticed that the trailer tilts forwards when parked, as it does not have a stand. The load capacity is impressive: the product can carry up to 40 kg as a bicycle trailer and up to 80 kg as a handcart. The sturdy frame contributes to safe handling. In terms of weather resistance, the transport trailer scores points with a powder coating as corrosion protection and a tarpaulin that protects the transported goods from light rain. It also showed good driving behaviour when driving in the rain. Manoeuvrability is excellent thanks to the 16-inch pneumatic tyres . Driving is effortless even when fully loaded. Six reflectors contribute to safety in the dark.

*Themaximum score is 100 points
On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.0 stars. One common criticism is that the assembly instructions are inadequate and that the assembly requires some fiddling around. On the other hand, the high quality, good handling and excellent price-performance ratio are positively emphasised. In our practical test, we were able to confirm the positive points. However, we can also understand the criticism from consumers. The manufacturer could revise the operating instructions if necessary.
Prices of up to €200 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €80 . The Juskys transport trailer is therefore currently in the lowest price segment with a price of €79.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
