Perhaps a split but low solution could be found that had the benefits of fitting in the boat without the centre of gravity and weight over the bike of the seat - post solution. Maybe resting the bow on an A-frame with straps and a customised frame from a trailer just astern of the boat 's centre of gravity. | |

It would be ok for a kayak (smaller and lighter). If the canoe was on fairly central wheels (slightly nose-heavy) the balance would be better but it would swing out wide on bends. This is still probably preferable and there are some seriously long bike trailers around. | |
| Oct 25, 2014 at 13:23 | comment | added | Batman | I don't think that most people have thought about towing canoes with bicycles on here - certainly the first question of the sort which wasn't a simple cargo trailer (like Surly's Bill) or a child trailer that I've seen on here. But trailer does go with towing, so I think the tags would be synonyms anyway. | |
