I don't know about the Stinger but when I needed a trailer for my Spyder I decided to go for an Apogee trailer. They are folding as well, made in aluminium, light weight. I figured the advantage over the Stinger is their versatility. They can be used as regular trailer to carry stuff: dump run, moving, lumber, etc. Good luck!

I bought the stinger trailer in 2020 for my Spyder RTL. Used it twice now and am very pleased with the way it tows. I like that it folds up and can be stored in the garage out of the weather. True, it’s not good for anything else.

I just purchased a Stinger trailer and have used it once. I will be using it this weekend to travel to Mt. Washington in VT. I haven't folded it yet so can't comment on that. I am very happy with the purchase; it's easy on and off, tracks directly behind my SUV and I have found the support from Stinger Trailers to be great. I had a FLOE trailer before and was leery loading the bike on it, the Stinger is low and easy to ride up on.

Thank you very much for the Link.

Did you get a Adap-X 600 (6'x10') or Adapt-X 700 (6'x12')?

Update:

I just found a dealer near Quebec City.

An 2022 Apogee Adapt-X 600 6x10 sells for $5,794. https://www.centreduvr.com/en/vehicles/2022/apogee/adapt-x--600-6x10/montmagny/qc/50720531/

Not cheap, but they seem very well built and can be folded for storage. Very tempting.

Thanks again for the info.

Just bought a 2022 Adapt-X 600 (6'x10' inside dimensions) a couple of months ago from a member here. I have a 22 RTL and a 17 F3L. Plenty of room on the trailer for either bike. And, as was already said, the trailer can be used for hauling most anything. Folded up: 6' high, 8' wide, 39" deep. :2thumbs:
