Well heres an update on nose weight! I have been having problems getting the caravan nose weight to be correctfor the citreon picasso which is 54kg! The caravan is a light weight van which is a bailey 460/2 yr 2000. When i first weighed the nose it stated over 100kg which shocked me!! so I moved kit around and I could only get the nose weight to be 60kg, so i was 6kg out. I have a bit of a dilema as going away soon to oban and would like to take two pedal bikes with us, so I have been looking to see what i can take out to get the weight correct, the only thing I can think to take out of the caravan is one of the gas bottles. I have a calor light 6kg which has a gross weight of 10.5, I have a 3.9kg calor bottle which weighs nearly the same, so have 21kg just in gas bottles at the front, I have also now taken all kit out of the front seat storage.
So to recap at the minute I have a caravan which will have one gas bottle which weighs 10.5 gross, I will have some bedding under the front seats, and two bike in the van with a few accessories but not much, most of the heavy items will be in the boot of the car!
Does anyone have any idea on other ways to keep the weight down, i know the bikes will be heavy but i really want to take them, the calor bottles i have are both full.
is it true if you put stuff on the axle it wont affect the nose weight?
