I just joined your new board, and will be happy to help with questions regarding trailers to haul your bike on, or trailers to tow behind your bike. If you have any trailer related items that I may be able to help with, just ask.

Looking to purchase a 16 or 18 ft double axle enclosed trailer to use for trike and for my fireworks display equipment. Question is do I need electric brakes on 1 or both axles?

In the State of Iowa and many other States, it is required to have brakes at all wheel positions, once the trailer and its contents weigh over 3,000 lbs. or if the GVWR is over 3,000 lbs. I feel that any trailer with 2 or more axles, should have brakes on all wheels.

Most all enclosed trailers of that size are already equipped with electric brakes. And what ever you do "do not get a single axle" for hauling your trike. I had a single axle 12 footer for the wing, found out it was to light duty and swayed way to much at higher speeds. A 2 axle 16 footer is perfect plus you have extra room for storage.
