CoPilot Model A Double Bike Trailer

The item pictured was red and black with little yellow. The item sent was yellow and black. I was hoping to have some red. Other than that its was great.

Overall this is a very good trailer. I have 1 year old twins and they had a lot of room to wiggle around. My only complaint about the interior is that the seat is not very sturdy, it buckled a bit in the middle. My babies ended up elbow to elbow before I was able to ride away. I ended up putting a rolled up towel between them to allow them to move their ukpper bodies.I had no problems attaching it to my beach cruiser, which have odd frames as it is. Some people say that it doesn't work. I found that it worked great. I love really like that the clamp has a padding so it won't scratch up my bike's frame.The side tinted windows are a plus. I just wish that they would also have the option of rollling up and have a mesh screen to allow more airflow.

We bought one of these from a bike shop when our kids were little. It lasted about 3-4 years, only one summer of a lot of use. Our 3 kids were born sort of close together, so I wanted it to last thru them all. Two would ride at a time, and they behaved well. I loved that they each had a pocket for their water bottle/sippy cup. When our youngest was old enough to ride in it (1), our oldest was 4, so he rode a tag-a-long while the youngest two rode in this trailer.It worked ok, but the clamp would not always stay secure, so be SURE to put the safety strap on always. Re-tighten occasionally when on rides. The clamp would not work well to secure on my husband's bike as his frame was too thick, so it was always attached to mine.We needed a replacement part (front tire) but found it impossible to order one. They bike shop couldn't help us either. So before you buy, check that you can get a hold of someone from customer service and inquire about replacement parts. Maybe things have changed in the past couple years.Always use all the seatbelts (lap and shoulder), and have your kids wear helmets. My dh forgot about the shoulder seatbelts more than once, and we are lucky the kids didn't fall out (they were half out). Be sure you have a mirror on your bike (or helmet) so you can keep an eye on the kids too.It did last until our youngest was almost 3. Though some seams had come undone, the front wheel needed replaced so we only used it as a bike trailer, and the clamp wasn't the best, it did survive. We gave it away for free (just set it out in the yard) as it was not safe for transporting kids anymore (at least our size of kids).I regret this purchase. I wish we would've invested in a more secure and sturdy unit with replacement parts available -- if you need it to survive just a couple years, you may be ok. Don't be cheap where your kids' safety is so important Really use the safety strap every time! I couldn't believe how often that safety strap ended up saving us. And we had the clamp as tight as we could be (I'm no OliveOil and my dh is 6'6" and very strong -- we had the clamp tight but it wouldn't stay that way).

This is our first bike trailer and are pleased with it, except that when it arrived the inner tube on one side was flat and needed to be replaced, so we took it into a bike repair guy and he fixed it for $17. After riding it on 2 short trips, the other tire's inner tube broke too, so another $17. They've both been fine since we replaced them. We love the trailer in that it seems sturdy with lots of storage in the back. As far as the inner tubes, I guess with everything made in China these days, quality control is nonexistent and it could happen with any trailer.

Trailer is just fine. The clamp stinks because it keeps coming loose (trust me, I've put as much torque on it as my fingers can stand). Also, the clamp placement on the chainstay is too far forward. It contacts my heel and my wife's heel on her bike. The only remedy is to ride with the arch of the foot on the pedal, which is wrong.I'm converting it to a hub mounted attachment, using a Burley skewer mounted bracket and altering the attachment method. Then, it will be out my way!The kids love riding in it, it's light enough and has large wheels for the bumps. I do like the options for covering the babes with the front mesh, or plastic cover.It's just the clamp that sucks!

My husband and I purchased this carrier about a month ago and we LOVE it!! We have 3 boys ( 4.5, 2.5 yrs and 10 months) all 3 have been in it and enjoy the ride. Have not had a single problem with the hinge, would never use it without the safety strap though. Super easy to put together and attach to the bike. No complaints and definitely a fair price. As for the space in it, our oldest is just over 40 lbs and the middle boy is 30lbs, when they ride together there is not much wiggle room for them, but I would not say they are cramped. All kids have plenty of room to wear their helmets in it. Hope this helps!
