When new, I would take the hubs off, re pack the bearings, with decent grease, and grease the spindle, this will make them last longer, and help stop rust from makeing it hard to remove the hub, when it comes time to replace the bearings. I found this out, after my first winter, had to replace the bearings, did the above when I replaced them, no problem since. This is a good little trailer. An excelent buy. (read more)

Great trailer cant fault, used my Erde 122, at least 6 times for holidays carrying a full load and it travels well. Even used on lots of trips here and there and still in very good condition. (read more)

The Erde 122 Trailer is tough and reliable. I use it when off camping - the extra storage space means I can take creature comforts with me on long journeys! (read more)

They are OK when new but the hubs "breathe" as there is a lot of void space inside. Water gets in and the stub axle and bearings rust. I've painted my stub axles and fitted grease nipples to the hubs (the new bearings have had their inner seals removed) Loctite was used to secure the bearing inners to the stub axles as I didn't want the wrong parts rotating. With several strokes of the grease gun the bearings might now have a chance. Another bonus of the grease is that the "breathing" will be reduced. I've also got a spare wheel mounted out of sight on my 122 drawbar. Spare wheels are vital on motorways as otherwise one is apt to get an irate police officer radioing up a tow truck costing £200. With BL Mini wheel trailers I often carry a complete spare hub but apart from wheel nut loosening troubles on the left hand side they never fail.
