You’re Not Alone – We Help Hercules Bike Owners Connect Their Trailers
Can’t connect your bike trailer to your Hercules bike? You’re definitely not the only one. Many modern bikes come with unique axle systems and designs that don’t always support standard trailer hitches. If your trailer won’t attach, we’ll help you fix that with the right adapter.
But the good news? It’s easier than you think – and you don’t need any special tools to fix it. Just the right adapter.
We’re experts in bikes and trailers – and we’ll help you connect your bike to any trailer brand, including:
- Thule

Do I Need an Adapter for My Bike?
In many cases – yes.
Modern bikes often come with a variety of axle standards that may not be compatible with standard bike trailer hitches. Common axle types include:
- 12 mm thru axle (found on most modern road, gravel, city and mountain bikes)
- Proprietary axle systems (like quick-release thru axles or R.A.T.-style designs)
- 5 mm quick release (often on older or entry-level bikes)
- Solid axles (often found on hub gear bikes, city bikes, or utility bikes)
If your trailer doesn’t fit, you likely need an adapter to make it work safely.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why doesn’t my trailer fit my bike?
Most likely because your bike uses a thru axle, solid axle, or a proprietary system that isn’t compatible with standard trailer hitches.
Which bikes typically need adapters?
Most modern bikes do – especially those with 12 mm thru axles, internal gear hubs, solid axles, or proprietary quick-release systems.
How do I check which axle I have?
Remove the axle and check the size. Or send us a photo – we’ll figure it out for you.
Is it hard to install an adapter?
Not at all! All you need is a hex key and a wrench. No special tools are required.
Do your adapters work with all trailer brands?
Yes! Our adapters are compatible with all major 2-wheeled bike trailers that mount at the frame hub, including Thule, Hamax, Burley, Nordic Cab, Croozer, Qeridoo, and many more.
What if I buy the wrong adapter?
If you’re ordering from outside Norway, we recommend contacting us before you order if you’re unsure. Just send us your bike details – we’ll help you get it right the first time.
(Inside Norway, we offer a free exchange if needed.)
Can I use the same adapter on a different bike?
Only if the axle type is exactly the same. We recommend one adapter per bike.
Is it safe for children or pets in the trailer?
Absolutely. Our adapters are precision-made and tested for strength and safety.
