Does anyone know about these trunks?

Followed a link from Facebook to this site. They look interesting but could be very flimsy.

Bud, that looks like the ubiquitous MUTAZU trunk to me. Any decent quality trunk is going to cost 3x that at a minimum.

Bud looks like this one with the spoiler added, I think it is the same place selling it. If you want a trunk have you checked with Reckless they make them call and ask for Alex and let him know that you are with Kawanow.

Looks like a Mutazu with the optional rack and LED spoiler. What the heck does "ubiquitous" mean? You must have dug real deep for that one Scott.

Ubiquitous means "they's everywhere". Lots of vendors selling those things. Must get them from Mutazu for $7 each or something.

Your right on the money Scott. I once found a website where if you order 100pcs or more from China they are about $7.00 each.

Makes you wonder how they can pay their workers 10 to 15 dollars an hour when they sell the product for $7. ::)

I believe the hinges are plastic ... based on what I've seen in pictures.

It's the one I have and it's made well enough IMHO... Mounted on a Wompus Rack..

**Cajunrider** · 05-19-2011, 11:24 AM

My latch broke on mine but they sent me another one right away. The bottom cracked last year but it was because my rack didn't support enough surface area on the bottom. Straightened that out with alluminum backing plates. The Mutazu trunks are worth what they sell for. I paid $138 for mine.

blowndodge · 05-19-2011, 11:34 AM

I got mine free from Tomk...

I got the mutazu trunk. I bought used. It actually was CJs. I have had it for about a year now and it work. It rattles a little and it is not big enough, but for the little bit that I paid, it has been good. They look fine and they work.
