That valve on the drivers side Rotopax looks pretty handy. What is it and where'd you get it?

I think my mpg has a lot to do with my typical speed coupled with the fact that almost every trip I take involves a few 4000 ft elevation gains. Just the nature of the terrain in the west. I probably see around 15-16 mpg until I start going up and down.

I've rented a couple of offroad teardrops (SoCal Teardrops and Overland Explorer TDK) and ended up with the TetonX Hybrid. Standing up to get dressed seems to be a common reason that people mention why they moved to something bigger than a teardrop (TetonX, Mission Overland, Taxa Cricket...

I attached mine to a TetonX Hybrid on the angled part of the tongue - the standard tongue jack was mounted on the angled part on the other side, so this doesn't change the load - just shifts it to the other side. See: ARK XO750 on TetonX Hybrid installation pics

Lock as in prevent rolling? Nope. It locks the swiveling as you retract it completely in one of 5 positions to keep it from dangling when it's stowed, but that's all. And that swivel lock isn't strong enough to survive if you accidently roll it around that way.

I didn't ask about optioning it. I had thought it would be a pretty clumsy mount until I had the trailer in person and looked up some detailed pictures of the bracket that I thought I might be able to get it to work. I sort of took a risk knowing that I might not be able to use it because of...

Put an ARK XO750 on it. Mostly in case I had to winch it to turn it around in a tight spot, but it's really handy in the garage too. I trimmed an inch off both the top an bottom of the mounting bracket to give it better clearance

It does look just like new - and well equipped. Congrats!

It was also listed on the TetonX facebook page - wanted to upgrade to a newer model, apparently.

@Jafrench Yeah, you can definitely get 2 bikes on without an extension. The rack has quite a long tube and since it doesn't use the hitch pin, it can be positioned anywhere as long as there's enough overlap. I didn't have to slide it in as far as I did. The pedal on the forward bike might need...

The rear bumper is essentially part of the frame although because of the angle, the hitch doesn't connect to the forward cross members like the tongue does. The spare tire mounts to the receiver, but doesn't really add much strength to it. Probably good for bike racks, but you might need an...

@Jafrench Not composite yet. Personally, I'd probably prefer poplar because it can be modified more easily. I'm in AZ and don't have to worry much about moisture though. We had a space left open for stashing bikes inside across from the door (worked out very well, BTW) and it was pretty easy...

@Jafrench I ordered in March of 2019 - original delivery estimate was a month from now, but they seem to be building them more quickly now (CNC in-house probably helps). Got an email in December letting me know it was getting closer and since we wanted to see one in person before finalizing the...

Just got ours last weekend. A couple of new options: 40 gallons of water with baffle balls in the tank to eliminate the free surface effect and keep it upright: This Timbren suspension is the 2 inch lift version (which actually gave it 3 inches of lift): (I'm 6 ft tall for scale)...

Nice trip! Did you reserve your campsites ahead of time or when you got to the ranger station?

You probably have a bunch of corrosion concerns also then? Not so much aluminum itself, or a steel frame, but just the electrical connections everywhere and hardware fittings, etc. Anything not aluminum or stainless. And any places where aluminum is connected to steel without isolation.

I was just at their shop this past week looking at a Hybrid in person and finalizing the build sheet. The interior aluminum frame (seemed like it was more than 2 inches, but I'd probably trust their numbers more than my memory) is basically a square ring around the perimeter at the top of the...

It's working for me now - same browser, same computer - I think that they probably had some problems on their back-end that the in-browser rendering was treating as a generic browser error.
