CONGRATULATIONS
on being the new owner of a B.O.B
trailer. We call it getting “B.O.B’d”. You are part of a grow-
ing movement in the bicycle world embracing lightweight,
hi-end, single wheel bicycle trailers. B.O.B is a company that
is committed to developing quality products which encour-
age a healthy, outdoor, car-free lifestyle. We make single-
wheeled cargo trailers, kid trailers, and strollers.
Before attempting to install or use your new trailer, read
these operating instructions completely to insure proper
assembly, installation, and operation. This manual covers
assembly, use, and maintenance instructions for both the
B.O.B COZ and YAK Bicycle Trailers. Many of the instructions
are the same for both models. In such cases the COZ and
YAK are referred to collectively as the “trailers”. In some
cases there are model specific differences. In cases of such
differences, model specific instructions are provided and are
so designated by model name. Thanks for getting B.O.B’d !!
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The trailers are designed to be attached to bicycles with
wheel diameters between 20 and 28 inches(includes 700c).
The dimensions of the tire appear as a raised surface on the
side walls. They will typically appear similar to the follow-
ing example: 26” x 1.9”. The first number refers to the
diameter and the second to the width. It is critical that your
wheels meet the diameter specifications listed above. If
they do not meet these specifications it is unsafe for you to
attach the trailers. If you have questions about your wheel
diameters or the compatibility of the trailers with your bicy-
cle, consult your bicycle dealer.
QUICK RELEASE
The trailers attach to your bicycle by means of a specially
designed quick release which inserts into the rear hub of
your bike. If your bike does not have a rear quick release,
the trailer will need to be attached with B.O.B Nutz. B.O.B
Nutz are special adapters for bicycles with solid axles. They
are made for axles with the following threading: 3/8 x 24
tpi, 3/8 x 26 tpi, 10 x 1, and 10.5 x 1 or 13/32 x 26 tpi (Sachs
and Sturmey Archer Internal Gear Hubs – I.G.H.) See

DROP OUT SPACING
For the B.O.B quick release to safely work with your bicy-
cle, the overall dimension from outside to outside of your
bike frame’s rear wheel dropouts (overdrop dimension)
must fall within the following range:
Minimum Width 140 mm Maximum Width 156 mm
The correct way to measure your overdrop dimension is
