Safe travels
Travel in style and comfort with the new Duomax from Cheval Liberté. We take a closer look at what this trailer has to offer
WITH THE COMPETITION season upon us, now is as good a time as any to buy a trailer. If you’re looking for something that’s designed with your horse’s comfort in mind, as well as ease of towing for you, then the new Cheval Liberté Duomax fits the bill perfectly. The Duomax is a double herringbonestyle horse trailer without the compromises. It offers endless features that will benefit both your horse while travelling, and you the driver.
KEY FEATURES
You’ll find a long list of great features on the Cheval Liberté Duomax trailer.
Large, built-in saddle room
With facilities to store tack, equipment and luggage, you can save space in your towing vehicle and safely lock away your possessions while travelling. With a vanity mirror and storage on the interior of the saddle room door, you can get ready for competition with ease. There’s even enough room to get dressed out of sight — and out of the unpredictable British weather.
Rear combination ramp/door
With a simple, fast and functional system you can transform the opening at the rear of the trailer from a ramp to a barn door, and back again. Every horse is different and having the ability to adapt the opening to what they prefer can make loading your horse stress-free.
Pullman 2 suspension
Manufactured using Cheval Liberté’s signature car-like coil and gas damper Pullman 2 Suspension system, the Duomax offers industry leading lowered floor height and exceptional handling qualities. This mechanism means that imperfections in your travelling routes are effectively absorbed, significantly reducing trailer movement and noise — and keeping your horse relaxed and ready for optimal performance.
Pullman 2 Suspension uses a single piece chassis, so the trailer’s centre of gravity is closer to the ground, This results in better balance, no incline and no steps — clever features that make for easy loading.
Ventilation
You shouldn’t have to sacrifice a calming environment to ensure that your horse doesn’t arrive flustered and sweating after his journey. The Duomax has a light and airy interior teamed with three sliding windows and an Airtech rear
roller. These all encourage effective air flow and ventilation without allowing excessive external noise into the trailer. Plenty of natural light in the trailer also prevents your horse feeling claustrophobic, without absorbing heat into the trailer the way tinted windows might.
Front unloading ramp
With a large opening flap with sliding window, the ability to walk your horse out of the Duomax’s wide front ramp not only makes unloading easier, but also encourages nervous loaders. You can enter and exit the trailer in one swift movement, building up his confidence and reducing the fear of being trapped.
Appearance
The sleek, aerodynamic one-piece front and nose appearance of the Duomax significantly contributes to minimising the fuel consumption of the towing vehicle. Available in black, light grey, red, white or anthracite, you can pick a colour to suit your vehicle. The Duomax effortlessly blends comfort, functionality and style to offer you and your horse the ultimate towing experience.
High-quality materials
Manufactured using high-class materials renowned for their technical qualities, the Duomax has anodised aluminium box section side walls and ramps, with an aluminium floor and 8mm rubber matting. Cheval Liberté has been making aluminium-sided trailers for over 10 years, and with extensive research and development over many years has developed a patent based on a unique method of assembly. This allows it to design trailers like the Duomax that are stronger, lighter and have great handling.
Security
Safety elements such as brakes, suspension, wheels and accessories are approved and are subject to constant checks. Cheval Liberté’s horse trailers have received European homologation and benefit from a two-year and five-year parts and labour guarantee for aluminium boards and walls.
