What Do You Pull Behind a Bicycle?

Cycling is a quick, healthy and eco-friendly way to travel. The added feature of a trailer added to your bike could have useful benefits that suit your lifestyle and enhance your cycling experience.

  1. Child Bicycle Trailer

    • A bike trailer for a child can be attached to your bicycle. Bike trailers designed for children usually have a cover and safety belt to ensure that kids are safe in the trailer when the bike is moving. It is not recommended to put any child younger than 12 months old into the trailer. According to the Babycenter pediatrician, children should be able to sit by themselves and wear safety helmets.

    Cargo Bike Trailer

    • A cargo bike trailer can be attached to your bicycle to carry loads (such as groceries, tools or camping equipment). Cargo trailers can be a simple metal or plastic floor with wheels attached that goods can be strapped to or they can come complete with waterproof covers and extra racks for heavier loads.

    Pet Trailers

    • Pet bicycle trailers are very similar in design to the child bike trailers. The trailer is usually a self-contained carriage with a cover. There is seating for your pet, a safety belt and depending on the make, other design and safety features.
