BIOD Other models

The register lists here 64 versions with unladen weights from 470 to 1,260 kg, gross weights from 800 to 2,000 kg, widths from 1,960 to 2,430 mm and, for part of the models, lengths from 4,600 to 7,010 mm.

With gross weights up to 2 tonnes, the BIOD range belongs to the light trailers, running depending on the model either unbraked as O1 class or with a simple overrun brake as O2 class, and typically towed behind cars and light commercial vehicles. The market for this weight class in Europe is shaped by numerous small and medium-sized makers that usually sell regionally through the trailer trade rather than a nationwide dealer network.

On a used trailer, corrosion and distortion of the frame, the condition of axles and wheel bearings, the function of the overrun brake and its cables, the condition of the coupling head and jockey wheel, the age and tread depth of the tyres, and the lighting system with its plug count; spare parts for smaller trailer brands are often available only directly from the maker or from specialist trailer workshops.
