However, if you are using your trailer as a stroller and you have a young infant, you can stroll with your baby as young as 6 weeks old. Thule, Burley, Hamax, and Qeridoo trailer/strollers are your best bet if you want to use your trailer as a stroller with a young baby.

While the stroller wheel is basic and sticks out on the end of the trailer arm, it easily rotates up and out of the way when you don’t need it. Safety: Constructed from high-strength materials, this bike trailer attachment is built to withstand prolonged use without easily breaking or failing. An adjustable stroller handlebar greatly improves the usability of a trailer in stroller or jogger mode. However, if you happen to discover that none of our hitch solutions fit to your bike and dropout, please let us know! If the rear wheel of your bicycle is attached to the frame with a quick-release skewer, and the Universal Hitch that came with your Croozer does not fit, then we offer a variety of alternative solutions for hitching a Croozer trailer to your bike!The most universal hand brake is available as an upgrade on the Thule Chariot Lite and Cross models and can be used in stroller or jogging modes. If your bike or trike is not shown here, we can also make custom trailer hitches for bicycles and tricycles (but not mopeds or scooters) with unique requirements (small wheels, recumbent frame, unusual frame geometry, etc. Higher-end trailers provide the most features and offer a smoother ride for parent and child, but can be heavy on the pocketbook.

The Bike Connector was specially developed for high loads and even during stress tests with significantly exceeded maximum loads, top speeds of 60km/h and even falls did not affect the Bike Connector. The hitch installs easily on the rear skewer of your bike, and then stays attached so the Burley can be connected at any time. It can withstand the rigors of regular use, ensuring longevity and reliability even in demanding conditions. Most trailers come with at least two heights, achieved by flipping the handlebar and reattaching it to the trailer. We also appreciate that as of spring 2023, 55% of soft goods in the Burley D’Lite X are made from recycled materials – mostly plastic water bottles!They make it much easier to load and unload kids, because the bench is supporting their weight away from the buckle.

These multi-sport trailers are also often used for more extreme adventures like bike packing, snow fat biking, and cross-country skiing. For example, our Thule Cross Single requires us to fold down the back seat of our Honda Pilot to fit it in the car. The Doggy Tourer is incredibly durable and can withstand large loads and has individual wheel suspension ensuring. For the average family carrying one or two average-weight kids, the non-adjustable suspension systems found on the Thule Chariot Lite and Burley Encore X models should be sufficient.To turn a jogging trailer, you must push down on the handlebar to raise the front wheel off the ground, and then pivot the trailer while the front jogging wheel is in the air. With so many types of bikes, frames, and axles on the market, creating a one-size-fits-all hitch system is not only impossible, but unsafe!

Thule’s removable rain cover encompasses the top and sides of the trailer for superior protection from the rain, wind, and cold.Don’t just read about our favorite bike trailers for kids, see them in action in our video summary below! I think it would be better if it was possible to chose accessories such as the tow bar as it is unlikely everyone will want one. For this purpose, we enclose four DIN-certified reflectors with mounting clamps with each Bike Connector. Compared to the more expensive Allen Premier Trailer Stroller, the Deluxe has smaller 16″ wheels, which limits the recommended MPH to 10. For overhanging racks (especially for e-bikes with battery mounting on the rack) we recommend BC city (430-590mm) also for SPORT models.
