Jurgens Safari Trailers soon is the USA !!

[bunduguy]

Hey all,
Just wanted to share our info with you all, in case you had not seen us.

Besides being the US agents for Howling Moon, Bundu Gear is also the exclusive agent in the US for the Jurgens Safari line of off-road trailers. Three models of off-road trailers are available; XT-75, XT-120 and the XT-140 being the toughest and largest, and the No.1 selling off-road trailer in South Africa. The XT-140 trailer is a heavy-duty trailer with many features as standard. These include: nose cone, spare wheel, Heavy-duty basket roof rack, 2 jerry cans and holders, skid and nudge bars, fridge-slide, stow-away table bracket and 21 gallon built in water tanks with faucet. The trailer also features a brake as standard equipment.

the Howling Moon trailer tent will fit perfectly, and features an all-new design, set to be released this spring.

In addition to representing Howling Moon and Jurgens, we are also dealers for Front Runner 4x4 accessories, Cadac safari grills, and various storage solutions.

We are slowly building our inventory and online presence, and apologize for the delay in the meantime until we get up to speed. We will have our first trailers and full inventory by early summer, but are currently taking and filling orders. We look forward to hearing from you and helping you make the most of your off-road experiences.

All the best, and happy trails,
Roualeyn de Haas - Bundu Gear www.bundugear.com

Hi John,

Here are some pictures of the upcoming Jurgens XT140 - soon to hit the US in early summer. We'll get some more pictures and details soon. The trailer is designed for rough dirt roads and gravel, as well as double-track and/or backcountry exploration. If you want a trailer for extreme wheeling, bouldering and stretching your long-travel suspension, this is NOT it. But if you're an explorer and want a rugged, high capacity, stable trailer, this may be it. And you can't beat the price-point especially with all the included features. Water tanks, spare wheel, roof rack, brakes, fridge slide, large access doors...

Nice trailer, I really like that design with the reverse boat tail for departure angle. Why is the ground glearance only 13" Must be bottom of the axle? How much clearnace to the bottom of the frame?

If I hadn't already built one last year, I'd be all over that for that price point.

thats pretty sexy. once I get back to work maybe I will look into it more.
The storage boxes caught my eye to. might do to convert measurements to inches for us U.S. folks. saves me from having to dig out the calculator.
The potjie is cool. I am a fan of the western dutch oven. a pot might be interesting as well.

Hey John,
Thanks for the notice on the box measurements- we'll definitely get those specs in standard. We just wanted to get as much stuff on the site as possible; still lot's of polishing to do.
The potjies are really cool. They were a hit at the recent Dutch Oven Championship in Salt Lake. We'll also hope to add recipes and instruction down the line.

Time for an update!

It's been a little while as we've been really busy getting up and running, but here's an update.

The first 2 demo Jurgens XT140's have landed! We're very impressed with them and have had a chance to take them off for some good off-road testing. These are great, rugged and very sturdy and stable Expo trailers that will handle a lot of abuse.
We have mounted the new 2010 Howling Moon Trailer Tent on it and it makes an awesome basecamp. There is a reason this trailer, and the Trailer Tents are the best selling products in the category in South Africa!

A few things to add since we broke the news earlier this year:
There is now a very cool stove bracket to mount a stove to the included fridge slide. This means you now have your fridge and stove available at the pulling of a spring-pin. We'll have the option to add our sensational Cadac 2-cook grill, to give you the option of 2 burners, or a flat/ribbed griddle combo!
We also have a 2-layer slide system for the rear door, with space for 4 "ammo/Wolf" boxes. Very accessible and very sturdy storage.

So we have 1 trailer for sale, and are accepting orders for the next container. Let us know what questions you have. We will be offering the option of leaf springs, but this will be an upcharge. Quite frankly, the torsion axles do exceptionally well, are extremely durable, and are used in ridiculously rough conditions all over Africa. But we will be offering the option to change bolt patterns on the axle to match tow vehicle.

Looking forward to hearing any questions, and please ket us know what pictures you'd like to see.

The XT140 will be selling for the ridiculously low price of $7,500. This gets you an expedition worthy trailer, which comes standard with; roof rack, spare wheel and swing-away carrier, 20gallon water tanks, nose cone (removable), braked, fridge slide, rock sliders front and rear, E-coated chassis, and A/T 15" tires.

We will also be bringing in the XT75, the smaller brother to the 140, and will be perfect for Jeepers or people who simply do not want such a big capacity. The XT75 will sell for around $6,000.
cheers for now

Rou stopped by my place on his way across Country with this trailer and I crawled all through it.
Tremendous quality for the price.

If I didn't already have the Conqueror paid for, ... I'd be all over one of these.

Add a Howling Moon Roof Top Tent and you'd be as good as it gets!!

great website, nice products

 

[bunduguy]

Thanks Mr.D! Actually the website is far from where we'd like it. In the next few days we'll have loads more products from our new "lite" trailer and trailer tent, to the larger full spec off-road camper trailers. We'll also be putting up our other products that we represent like National Luna, Baja Rack, Front Runner and Escape Gear. Stay tuned and we'll post updates.

What's the time to get an XT-140 if I ordered it soon (Feb.)?
