Bicycle Trailer Hitch Attachment Mount
Description
This is to 3D print a trailer hitch for a bicycle trailer. The print requires a very good printer and very good material. I finally got ABS to work after lots of trial and error. I have to use 104% or 105%. The design also had to go through some changes. I initally wanted a mount like https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3055870 but for my 20mm bicycle. And since I couldn't adjust his .stl file correctly I designed my own hitch from the ground up. The Distance is the space from the hole centers on the frame above the back wheel. This is the distance where you use bolts to mount this hitch to your bike frame. The 25mm mount is actually 25.4mm for 1 inch spacing. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. IF THE PART FAILS FOR ANY REASON SEROUS DAMAGE COULD HAPPEN TO BIKE, TRAILER, OR THE PERSON IN THE TRAILER, OR ALL OF THE ABOVE. YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FOR PRINTING OR USING THIS PART. you should test the hitch thoroughly before using it to determine if it printed correctly and solidly. you should also reinspect often. As you can see from the pictures a bad print or bad sizing will give an unacceptable part. Lots of trail and error was used.
