FINALLY! B&W Continuum Hitch Review// This is the EASIEST Hitch I Have Ever Used

[@WanderingWeekends]

A few important notes I included in the sister video that I neglected to mention here. 1. Tow vehicle is a 2020 F250 w 7.3 Godzilla 2. Test trailers have always been 30-37ft and around 7500-10000 lbs 3. This hitch is rated for a 1600lb max hitch weight and 16,000lb max trailer weight.

[@billtate488]

I now have over 1500 miles on my Continuum hitch and I strongly believe it was worth the price. One thing to note is the composite spring bars. These are far superior to any steel spring bars because they can be engineered to flex at different rates. The outcome is a much smoother ride. I have noted before that my DW who does hand sewing when we travel was not able to sew much of the time previous to this because of rough roads. With this hitch the smoother ride enables her to enjoy her hobby. As the video shows the hookup time and effort is the best of anything I have used and for those occasions where the TV must be angled to the left or right the advantage is even greater. As noted below part of the observing of different pressures on the gauge is the fact that your rig must be level for this reading to be the same. If you are on a surface that has plane of the trailer lower than the plane of the TV then there is less pressure on the hitch and spring bars and the gauge will read lower. I have in my experience with the hitch gone through side winds and other issues as uneven lanes or trucks passing and found no sway problems. For those of you who are looking for real experience to help you asses the hitch then I hope this helps.

[@WanderingWeekends]

Yes, very smooth ride. As for pressure loss... I have lost pressure simply sitting in one place so while the angle point is well taken this wasn't the reason I've lost pressure. Temp maybe? I'm not sure how much 20 degrees would have on the system. Hopefully not much at all.

Your review videos are great. I have been looking at the B&W for a while and then stumbled upon your first video. I ordered the hitch before we went to pick up our new TT. First trip from Middlebury IN to Monticello KY experienced a variety of conditions from wind to rain to blue skys and calm conditions, along with all traffic conditions (Friday before Memorial Day). Camped for a few days then back home to NC. Totaling around 650 miles and feel confident in the hitch. Tow vehicle 2016 Ford F150 crew cab 5.0 and trailer 29’ Grey Wolf 22RRBL dry weight just under 5,500 lbs. Do love the fact that it will be easily adjustable once the motorcycle is put in the trailer.

Thank you for actually showing the part where you had to move the truck slightly to lock the ball. I've seen people who are new to towing struggle and think that they are doing something wrong because no one ever shows that so people start to think if they can not immediately lock the coupler, they have done something wrong. I know it may not make the prettiest video, but I for one appreciate real and actual over those that edit out the real possibilities. Thank you for another great review. I guess the real question that remains, and I'm assuming you will be answering when you do your rating video, will this be remaining on your trailer, or will you be going back to the Weigh Safe?

[@WanderingWeekends]

I’ll keep that in my pocket for a few more days. 😜

100% agree with this comment about how you release the emergency brake to get the tongue to lockdown. I've seen and heard too many people on forums say that they take a hammer to it etcetera.

[@dennisd7292]

Question: On an F350 dually towing, a 9,000lb 30ft travel trailer, if the front wheel measurement from ground to top of wheelwell difference is zero, do I still need a weight distribution system? Thanks for your great channel!

[@WanderingWeekends]

Even if you didn’t need the weight distribution I’d still use the sway control many of these hitches offer. Some better than others.

[@dodgefreak8797]

I can't thank you enough for taking the time to do such a thorough review of this hitch and others. I'm currently using the anderson but I feel I'm slightly too heavy for optimum performance with my Jayco eagle 284bhok. It's just not pushing enough weight back to the front tires. Everything else about the anderson I've liked. That being said this hitch has all the pros of the anderson but is just a much better design. I will be purchasing this hitch purely because of your review. Thanks again!

[@CF542]

I was tempted to go with this hitch because of its simplicity but that hydraulic system looked to be a real potential point of failure. I ended up getting the ProPride hitch and other than hooking it up, I have been very happy with its performance.

[@Abc-kf4qx]

I’m told one of the main advantages of the B&W is that you can back up with it on, is that true?

[@dodgeguyz]

@@Abc-kf4qx You can back up with any type of hitch. Just need to not jackknife.

[@robertjf9900]

I have this hitch and have used it now 4 times. I too thought I was loosing pressure but it really came down to how level you had your truck in comparison to your trailer. If they are angled when you put pressure on it and then compare it to when they are leveled together, the pressure changes as the angle between the trailer and truck changes. This is what I noticed at least. I have not done specific testing. It did perform great all in all though. So far, I love it. I too can’t use their hanger. To keep the hitch off the ground, I just wrap a bungee around it to keep it up when storing.

[@WanderingWeekends]

Mine has lost the initial pressure just sitting but generally it holds after the initial loss.

[@robertjf9900]

@@WanderingWeekends I’ll be on the lookout for that but haven’t noticed it. So far so good.

[@billtate488]

I have about 1500 miles on my Continuum and at first I was concerned about pressure loss as well. But as Wired1236 noted if you are not on level ground the pressure on the spring bars will change and thus affect the pressure on the gauges.

[@therealjonwsmith]

[@DR-ur4zd]

This hitch seems more focused on the weight distribution part whereas propride shines on the sway control part. A mash up of this one with the ProPride would probably be the best hitch all around I think.

[@guylawless3586]

I posted in the last video that I purchased one for my in laws and they still love it. One specific note on ground clearance for a very specific use case: - F-150 (half ton) with the front return set correctly based on the ford tow guide - A 24’ TT that is within the weight range but on the LOW end - It’s a jayco, which has an under slung hitch, which is a different SKU than a standard hitch. - Only need around 1300 psi for correct distribution. With those factors it sits lower than a normal bar would and has scraped a few times where there is significant articulation between the truck and trailer (driveways, campground entrance)

[@WanderingWeekends]

This is good to know. B&W says they are keeping an eye out to see if this becomes a significant issue.

[@Griff8898]

Great review. I like the live action shot. I'm really impressed with my b&w on the road. It has made my ride very comfortable with an old truck. You were right about not going wrong moving from the BO. I'm still getting used to the hitching and unhitching at angles/uneven ground. Very doable, but there are some things you have to watch and be prepared for. I also couldn't use the mount, it left the platform too low and it would hit the bars in tight uneven turns. (GA state parks)

[@WanderingWeekends]

Enjoy that hitch!!

[@JB-pb2oh]

Enjoy your videos on weight distribution hitches. The "stop" nut your refer to on the BW appears to be a lock nut.. Close the valve then tighten the nut ~ 1/4 turn to lock it in place. And a question, where does the BW rank in your ratings, number 2, 4, etc.?

[@WanderingWeekends]

It ranks #3 but it’s very close to #2. Great hitch and very easy to operate.

[@stevenfoster5737]

@WanderingWeekends @ 12:14 of the video does the hitch hit the drop part of your shank during that turn or is there enough clearance for it to pass by?

[@WanderingWeekends]

I don’t believe so. No scarring so I can’t imagine it hit.

[@niceatrya3477]

My question is where did you get the shank that is 2.5" for this product as I don't see a reducer sleeve on your truck, and I only am finding the 2" version online for the 2 and 5/16 ball.

[@WanderingWeekends]

Hmm… this is what they sent me. I’m surprised it isn’t online.

[@samuelcooley9102]

I have also experienced big swings in hydraulic pressure. For me this happened when going from low elevation hot climates to high elevation nearly freezing climates and vice versa. Not sure the how temperature affects the volume of hydraulic fluid but my guess is the volume deceases with lower temps and therefore the pressure decreases too. I would adjust the pressure at each fuel stop to accommodate for pressure swings. Otherwise this hitch drastically improves ride and handling of my rig and inspires both my wife and my confidence while hauling.

[@maxxoutdoors]

Nice review! This looks like a viable option to recommend to my people. -Maxx

[@wetdog440]

Looks like a really nice hitch but the concern of a hydraulic failure on a long trip would keep me from buying it.

[@riccochet704]

My thoughts exactly. I've seen plenty of hydraulic failures in a number of products. And those lines don't look confidence inspiring.

[@philblock]

Ive been very intrigued by this hitch, maybe for our next trailer.

[@oldguy1030]

Good video. Much appreciated! I'd like to switch from my Andersen WDH to that Continuum but I've an odd issue. In order to fit the trailer into its space I use the Trailer Valet RVR-9. I think that would be problematic with the Continuum but I may be able to figure out how to use bungees to keep the thing up off the RVR-9. One thing I really dislike about the Andersen WDH is that if you are backing in your trailer and the tow vehicle and trailer are not nicely line up straight with each other it can be a real pain to get things hooked up. I'm going to have to sort out whether the Continuum has similar issues (I'm guessing it doesn't).

[@sssophiesmom]

One question I have always wondered about the Anderson hitch...you mentioned hard to put back on if vehicle amd trailer are not straight... Could you simply hitch up trailer but not attach the plate, then pull forward til vehicle and trailer are line up straight, and THEN attach the triangle plate? I dont have one yet but plan to buy one next yr. I am never straight on when backing into a campsite. I always am angled to put trailer exactly where i want it. Thanks for your thoughts

[@oldguy1030]

@@sssophiesmom The fix is a little different from simply hooking up the hitch and pulling forward. 1. If the plate is angled just a little off then you can simply hook up the plate and tighten things as per normal. 2. If the plate is angled a lot then that doesn't work and you can't pull it straight or safely hammer it into position. The fix is to keep the chain fastened to the wing which is most pointing back toward the trailer. Disconnect the chain from the wing which points more toward the tow vehicle. Then you pull forward and turn away from the chained side until the wings have straightened enough to hook up the other chain. It is somewhat counter-intuitive but it does actually work. So the above actually is a fix but it isn't actually even as straightforward as it sounds (or does not sound) above. If you don't have a broad expanse of space in order to make the requisite turn you are kind of out of luck. I hooked up at home and if I tried the turn as I came off the concrete in front of the garage and tried to make the required (in my case) sharp turn to line things up - I block the entire rather busy street. I had tow it around until I could get to a less-busy street and blocked that street. And understand, to get things sufficiently lined up I had to turn so sharply that there were just a couple of inches between my truck bumper and the frame of the trailer. The Andersen WDH performs pretty well for me when I'm out on the road but the wing plate problem has me unhappy enough to want to switch.

[@tkilg7169]

In review videos about sway control hitches, I would really like to see the reviewer position a camera so that we can see an overtaking semi in the sideview mirror plus the steering wheel and the actions that the driver has to use on the steering wheel to correct for the truck suck. The camera on the bumper is cool, but it does not convey any info as far as sway from a passing semi.

We did that a few vids ago... in 40mph winds.

[@allenarrin87]

I have questions on long-term durability.....hydraulics require maintenance that most wont perform..... hoses and pumps fail and as you said you already experienced pressure loss..... with no direct mechanical connection on the bars to maintain the pressure on them i would be very hesitant about using it

I see a lot of ground clearance has been removed compared to say the Andersen hitch without measuring to compare it looks to be somewhere between 1 to 2 inches closer to the ground at its lowest point than on the Andersen.

[@BuildingByFaith]

Good review with pros and cons. I'm surprised that the sway control works as well as it does. As for clearance, it's more than my ProPride, which is like 8" or less from the ground, and I take my jack shoe off when hooked up, so it doesn't hit. ProPride needs to figure out how to incorporate this tech. It's weight distribution is a weak link.

[@lowellgallaway7911]

My big question is. The ground clearance for half ton trucks. TUNDRA, F150, and so on.

[@WanderingWeekends]

Yep, definitely a concern. Some of that depends on the trucks suspension and the tongue weight of the trailer as well.

[@billtate488]

With my experience with a half ton there has been no issues with ground clearance in campgrounds, speed bumps and entrances and exits.

[@ride-electric]

Ground clearance with this hitch looks to be tied into what style A frame you have. Is the A frame welded under the main frame or does it run through the frame. There will be a 5-6" difference between the two. Imagines run the A frame under the main frame so thats why there's only 10" of ground clearance. Anyone with a through the frame A frame will have around 15-16" of clearance. Doesn't have much to do with the tow vehicle.

[@WanderingWeekends]

I have t had an issue with clearance personally but some have. It certainly sits lower than some other hitches.

[@tomwadsworth5768]

About the hydraulics! 3 MAJOR concerns. 1st if the shutoff is a needle valve they tend to get ridges on the needle and start to bypass. Why would they have the valve sticking out in harms way. Very possible to get broken off or damaged beyond use. Right above that is the little gauge which is connected in the pressure circuit. If it takes a hit, the bourdon tube inside may rupture. This component is brass and not much thicker than a soda can. I would suggest shielding the pump or moving it to a safer location. It looks like a nice little pump it just seems exposed for damage.

[@JohnSmith-ev1sm]

How does hooking up on an angle work? Does your truck have to be perfectly aligned with your trailer when you back up in order for the jaws to fit in? Can your truck be at a 30 degree horizontal angle and still be able to hook up? I know with the anderson if you're angle is > X degrees then you need to take a tiny bit of weight off the ball, then adjust the appropriate chain to "pull" the receiver ball into the correct position, then you can finally hook up both chains and put full weight on the ball.

[@ffschoblocher]

Any issues hooking and unhooking at an angle? I know my Anderson can be a pain if your not at the same angle as you where the last time you hooked or unhooked.

Hydraulics don’t expand nor compress! (Paschals law) Sounds like you have a leak, (most likely cylinder seals leaking by internally if you don’t see any oil on ground). Pressure will leak down to counter pressure. What I mean by that is if it is leaking/bypassing, it will only leak down to point that it can hold back. Work with hydraulics every day at paper mill and if it did expand or contract, we would be in serious trouble.

Are you able to open your tailgate?

[@WanderingWeekends]

No, dang it!

[@richmorris9795]

@@WanderingWeekends hopefully they will come out with an extended shank like equalizer did so you can open the end gate... that is a major thing for me...

[@Saleen68]

Great video! I am certainly one who is concerned with ground clearance, as we are 80% boondock camping, and we have gone through some rough areas. I have 28' Toy-Hauler, and would love this B&W, but would actually like to see video of someone taking this off road with actual dips (unmaintained) roads.

[@riccochet704]

It's a good design, but the hydraulics and, really, minimal sway control are limiting factors here. That's not going to reduce sway much at all. Proper setup with it will.

[@stevevetter8045]

Can you open your Tailgate?

[@WanderingWeekends]

No ☹️ I mentioned that in the install vid but definitely should’ve mentioned it here too.

[@stevevetter8045]

@@WanderingWeekends thanks and again as always Great info and video

[@ArthriticAngler]

Your reviews are great, now go back and do them with a 1/2 ton 😂😂😂 please

[@WanderingWeekends]

Nope 🤣😂🤣 Seriously though, I can’t imagine performance wouldn’t translate similarly to a 1/2 ton. One would likely feel a little more movement but you’d still have an idea of which hitch does best.

So the b in b& w hitches is very good friends of mine and b&w hitch is made in a very small town 12 mile from where i live in Humboldt Ks and the W in B&W is the reason the town is going like is he takes care of town and takes care of his employees that man take so much pride in everything he does and I am very sure he has no clue about the issues u are having so maybe u all get together get som kinda of poll put together and i will see if it has any impact or maybe it something that can be a easy fix that man definitely would not put his name on any work that was bad

[@WanderingWeekends]

I visited Humboldt just a few weeks ago. Did a few videos too. Check em out!

[@badpewterz]

its interesting and looks super easy. 1 major flaw i see im kinda sad to say. makes for a super easy hook and book theft. loop over a ball and off you go. probably more stable than the chain pull thefts. :( the no low nose is also an issue for a few sites up here in the north east for sure

[@billtate488]

The spring bars can easily be fully removed from the trailer by removing one pin. Then you are back to the same security as any other hitch.

[@badpewterz]

@@billtate488 good to know, i was not aware of that aspect. thank you

[@CL-mr4te]

when i saw the debut of that thing i called it a failure out of the box because of the hydraulic. Why? Because hydraulic pressure is affected by temperature, which changes with ambience and changes fluid temputere with work ( while you're driving). The 3rd factor that affects fluid pressure is elevation changes. IMO. That makes that hitches performance unreliable, unpredictable and potentially dangerous. As you're experiencing in your review.

[@scotimotti]

Or you could just tighten the bleeder screw...you know kind of a follow the instructions kind of deal.

[@SaltyDog69]

Kinda seems like a mix of a gooseneck and fifth wheel on a much smaller scale.

[@dodgeguyz]

No thanks! I’ll stick with the Reese Dual Cam that works great!

[@johnr5545]

Nice job god bless

[@WanderingWeekends]

Thank you! You too!

[@hularock2705]

Clearance my not be an issue for you and your F250. Put it on a F150 ......

[@WanderingWeekends]

Yep, definitely a concern. Precisely why I show the measurement twice in the video. B&W tells me they are keeping an ear out for widespread issues.

[@myrlc4623]

I can tell you from experience that this hitch doesn't help with swaying. I purchased and installed this hitch before going on a road trip. I was at times holding on for dear life because every time a vehicle would pass me from the rear it felt as if I was being pushed of the freeway. I spent a lot of money for this hitch thinking it would perform asked advertised and I'm totally disappointed

[@WanderingWeekends]

Oh wow, that’s disappointing to hear. I towed with this hitch in 30-40mph gusts and it did very well. How is your hitch weight? Are you rear heavy? I’m very interested to know since this hitch did so well for me.

[@brandonsyatessr.3667]

Easiest hitch you have ever used? What was wrong with the Gen-Y

[@WanderingWeekends]

I have not used the Gen-Y

Looks like it is leaking hydraulic fluid

[@WanderingWeekends]

I can’t find any.

No thanks too complicated.
