Always fasten the harnesses to help reduce the chance of serious injury or death.
The child’s seated height should remain below the upper crossbar. Make sure that
under no circumstances can your child touch a moving wheel or the roadway. Also
make sure your child cannot press the trailer fabric against the tire or wheel, which
can cause burns.
Never leave children unattended in or around this product.
We recommend that children always be fitted with a certified bicycle helmet while
a passenger in this trailer. The child must be able to hold his/her head upright.
Check with a pediatrician to confirm that the child’s development level is suitable
for this trailer.
From time to time, check your trailer for loose hardware, worn parts, torn material or
stitching. Repair or replace parts as needed.
Over or under inflation of tires may cause handling issues for the trailer. Replace tires
only with street tread and not with BMX or knobby tread.
The product will become unstable if a parcel bag or rack is used where there is no
provision for one.
Care must be taken when folding and unfolding to prevent finger entrapment.
Safe and proper use of your trailer: Pulling this trailer alters the operation of a
bicycle. Stopping, starting, and turning are affected, depending on the weight of the
cargo. To become familiar with such changes, we recommend loading the trailer to
capacity and practicing in a safe area. Practice stopping, starting, and turning.
Do not use the trailer in traffic or on public paths until you feel comfortable with it.
Always instruct your child not to bounce or lean while a passenger in this trailer;
such movements may cause the trailer to move unexpectedly.
Never exceed a safe speed — we recommend no speed over 15 miles per hour (24
km/h) and slowing to less than 5 mph (9 km/h) when turning. Take sharp turns such
as into or out of a driveway carefully and at slow speeds.
