This is a complete kit for attaching the Stabiliser Rod to the childs bike. The kit comprises of the following: Family rides or commuting through city streets where it would be beneficial to keep your little out of traffic The Trail-Gator was designed and tested for the purposes of on-road use. Rough terrain may present riding situations for which the Trail-Gator was not designed or tested. Both of use were quite shaken and were a fair few miles away from home - fortunately my wife came to the rescue in the car.

The wobble is probably due to the telescoping arm design and the connection to the child bike, both of which are unique to the Trail Gator and introduce some additional instability. We used tandems with our children and the family now also has an enclosed trailer, child seats, a Follow-Me and that two-child trailer trike. Always happy to share experiences. That hill is just a bit too daunting for your child! Attach the Trail Gator and give them a boost of confidence (and your strength!) The Trail Gator is a unique bike towing solution to several common problem parents often have when biking with their kids.Not sure what to do now. Its 2 years old and have misplaced the receipt. Don't want to use it anymore in any event. Despite their reasonable price, these gaiters offer three-layer Gore-Tex reliability, plus all the features you’d expect from a general hiking and hillwalking gaiter. They’re made from ripstop polyester with a reinforced lower panel for added resistance to abrasion. They also feature an elasticated band at mid-calf to ensure a closer fit. The wobble is exaggerated when just gaining momentum, but becomes much less noticeable as you gain speed. If you can get your child to stay relatively still while pedaling, that’s also a huge help! Weight also plays a factor – the wobble was more noticeable when towing our 48-pound 6-year-old tester. I didn’t notice a wobble at all when I was towing our 2.5-year-old. Child Bike Can Lean to the Side

One issue we experienced on our first set of rides was that the child bike leaned to the side almost the entire time we were riding. It was a drastic enough lean that our kid bike testers started complaining after the initial 30 seconds of “wow” factor wore out. If we couldn’t fix the issue, we knew we would never really use the Trail Gator. These are used to attach the front of the gaiters to the laces of your footwear. Look for a robust plastic or metal hook that is unlikely to snap or corrode. We suggest that you work with your child on when and when not to use the brakes and practice in a vacant area before you go out on a ride. With good instruction this will not be a problem.This popular and hard to find Trail Gator part includes the handlebar clamp (part V) and the bolt with a ball end (parts X/Y/Z)......read more

Balancing low weight with top-level waterproofing and breathability, Montane’s Endurance Pro Gaiters make use of Gore-Tex Pro fabric, with a 70-denier nylon face. They’re reinforced with additional nylon overlays around the base of the ankle and lower leg for added durability. They have a close and precise fit, so these gaiters work well in more technical scrambling and mountaineering scenarios as well as for general hillwalking. The clever design permits a wide range of movement thanks to a slightly offset front closure that permits increased ankle articulation. This Trail Gator Shim Set gives you 3 sets of shims to allow you to fit your fork or handlebar clamp to a multitude of fork/handlebar sizes. We reached out to Trail Gator for help, and they provided several different potential solves. Based on their response, it seems that many others before me have probably had this issue. After about another two hours of finagling and trying every possible solve they provided, we finally resolved the issue.Attachment and detachment can be done at any time and only takes seconds. No tools are necessary and no parts need to be removed from either bike. The tow bar weights just 5 pounds and the high-strength steel construction make it virtually indestructible. The Trail-Gator Bicycle Tow Bar gives adults and children the option of riding together or separately for a fun, safe, and enjoyable bike ride. Whichever option you choose, the Trail-Gator makes it possible for you to enjoy the benefits of bicycling with your child. They can be a bit of a struggle to fit though. The key is to pair them with stiff-soled boots so you can get the rubber rand to stretch over both the heel and toe fully, while ensuring the instep strap is correctly positioned. This should ensure a proper weatherproof seal. No, the Trail-Gator only have up and down and side to side move, which requires the trailed bike to lean with the adult bike when towed. When fitting gaiters, try them on with the relevant outdoor footwear – ie, with your regular trail running shoes if you’re shopping for ankle gaiters, or your stiff winter boots when buying mountaineering gaiters. You’re looking for a close but comfortable fit around your legs and calves. Fabrics
