    Sorry for the misunderstanding. The rails and chock are not listed as a replacement part on their site. Just call Kendon and ask about the new(er) rails. I think I paid about $200 for them. They really do make loading the bike easier.

    Baxley makes one of the best trailers that can be had.
    It makes loading a bike so easy you will think you did something wrong.
    A simple one person operation
    Have had one for 10 years and just sold it because it was made for two bikes and
    I only travel with one at a time now.
    Only draw back is maybe price.

    I have to say that is a darn nice looking trailer. I like it a lot... and I think it would outlast me!
    That being said... I'm pretty cheap. Yes, the F6B cost a lot used, but I had a cheap HF 4x8 trailer that I abused mightily for 18 years, only having to replace the tires a couple times.
    Amortized out, it cost me about $30/yr including the plywood and rails. And yes, I put a lot of miles on it, overloaded it sinfully and loaned it out to those who didn't care for it.
    If I had to get a bike trailer now I'd get the same one or the 1800lb capacity one, build another ramp, use a couple boards for the guide and a good front wheel chock.
    Yes, yes I know... the china stuff argument. In time that will be a distant memory, like the bad connotation Made in Japan used to have.
    Factories build whatever build quality people want.

    I agree with your last statement above but would add "....and are willing to pay for".
