OK

OK, now that I'm done laughing - and I did look at the attachments.

My first question would be "Why?"

Electric bike hauled? Dude, I ride a bike and I can feel my weight whenever I go up a slight incline. No mater how small, compact and light you make it - it still has to be hauled up an incline or three. Electric bikes would eat through any batteries.

I'd ditch the trailer, get a good set of front/rear racks and saddle bags, and use a tent. Water? Water is heavy as shit. Pack enough to live on for a while and you'd never be able to move the trailer. A good filter pump don't weigh much or take up much room.

Seriously, anyplace you could get an electric bike to haul that thing you could get a little Suzuki 4x4 to haul more, faster and further.

Help me with the big picture - I'm not seeing it.

Bug out? You'll have to stick to really good trails, and you'll stick out like a sore thumb just about everywhere.
