Je suis désolé mais j'ai du mal à donner une suite à des réponses comme les votres...
Comment pouvez vous imaginer que l'etrier de frein va avoir un problème?
Vous voyez bien que c'est l'angle de la photo qui est mauvais...ou alors c'est du parti pris.
J'ai fait 4000 km avec la mienne l'année dernière. C'est pratiquement la remorque la plus vendue au monde pour les grands raids...heureusement que ceux qui l'ont acheté ne se sont pas contenté d'une photo.
De plus j'ai fait changer d'avis, simplement en roulant avec eux, à des quantités de routards qui roulaient encore avec des sacoches devant, sur le guidon et derriere...!
Il faut vivre avec son époque.
A plus, si vous avez besoin de plus amples renseignements.

I’d been watching this ultra-light travel movement or trend for a while.
So I gave it a try—goodbye to the 5 panniers and rear racks.
A 15L saddle bag for clothes and a stove cookset.
Two cages on the fork blades: 2x5L—mattress on one side, tent on the other.
A 5L frame bag for miscellaneous items: battery, camera, small bits and pieces.
And one on the handlebar for the sleeping bag.
I tested it this summer on a crossing from Valence to Perpignan via the Massif Central.
My conclusions: The obvious advantage is the reduced weight. In total, I had 12 kg on the bike, which makes climbing in the mountains much easier. Another benefit I hadn’t considered is the significantly lower wind resistance compared to a traditional setup—you really feel it when the wind’s against you. Of course, it’s not all perfect... For example, it’s impossible to carry a food stock. You buy just enough before each meal or go to a restaurant! You also have to accept a more spartan comfort level at stops.
In conclusion, I think for summer trips in regions where resupplying is easy, it’s an interesting option—especially if there’s significant elevation gain. On the other hand, it doesn’t allow for enough autonomy, so some trips are off the table.
I took the opportunity to replace my tent. Given the prices of lightweight gear, I went with Decathlon. For 150 €, I chose the MT900 tent/tarp (D4 model). https://www.decathlon.fr/p/tente-tarp-de-trekking-1-place-ultra-legere-et-ultra-compacte-mt900/343262/c193c382m8968612 Not the easiest to set up (at first) and it’s not freestanding. You can sit up inside, which isn’t common for this type of shelter. We’ll see how it holds up over time.
On the bike side, I swapped my Shimano 11/34 cassette for an 11/40. Even though Shimano doesn’t recommend it with a 105 derailleur and a 46/30 double chainring, it works really well. The only limit is avoiding the 46/40 gear ratio.

(sur les vidéos flatteuses du site promotionnel), elle est super, originale, innovante, c'est celle que j'attendais, elle est belle, ses courbes sont parfaites
, (et pas chère....😕), c'est pas comme les autres (remorques, sacoches.....), quand je sortirai avec elle on va me remarquer, etc....., je l'ai commandée (invitée), vivement qu'elle soit là pour que je l'essaie....(hum...)
