Abstract

A trailer, as for example for towing behind a bicycle, has an upper frame member, a lower frame member and a pair of folding frame units. The trailer may be folded into compact position by collapsing the folding frame units allowing the rotation of the upper frame member toward the lower frame member. The trailer is easy to manufacture and offers a simplified folding procedure over previously known trailers. The trailer may be modified for use as a stroller.
