Open bike trailers are fine for transporting your pride and joy around but hardly weatherproof and vans are expensive. Classic Dirt Bike editor Tim Britton tries out the best of both worlds - a box van trailer...

Transporting your motorcycles in safety and security is simple and straightforward with Latham Trailers’ range of box van trailers.

The model tested by Classic Dirt Bike measures 7ft long by 4ft wide and 5ft high on the inside – more than enough room for two comp bikes.

Latham Tfrailers' motorcycle box trailerIt also has four strap points for tying bikes down and even with the bikes loaded there’s plenty of additional space for wheel chocks to hold them in place, plus riding kit and tools.

Latham Trailers’ box vans are galvanised and floored with a phenolic decking plywood. The one loaned to CDB has a loading ramp but a roller shutter is also an option. For a full review read the September edition of Old Bike Mart. To order a copy call 01507 529529. It costs just £14.95 for a year’s worth. Why not meet the editor at Nostalgia in Cumbria this weekend and check it out for yourself?
