Twenty-five year-old Lobnitz is a mechanical engineer by training but is carving a niche for himself in the world of bicycle trailers.
His first Carry Freedom trailer – the City – doubled up as a suitcase on wheels, and was suitable for towing behind folding bikes as well as standard bikes, and is now joined by two heavy-duty utility trailers -the Y-frames – and a dog trailer – the bArk.
Lobnitz said he’s selling 4000 trailers a year, with distribution outlets across Europe and East Asia.
His sales will increase following a deal with Dahon which has commissioned Lobnitz to design a trailer suitable for its folding bikes.
