User questions & answers

Question:	What is the recommended minimum age for this
Answer:	Yes, an orange safety flag & pole come with it.
Question:	is there a kit to allow this to be a jogger
Answer:	Yes, the plastic safety flag comes with the cart. However, the sides do not roll down. The front and back mesh windows have provided enough ventilation that I never had a need to roll them down.
Question:	Does the trailer feel balanced when only one child is in it (sitting either on the left or right side
Answer:	Yes, I use mine with one kid as I only have one daughter. I want another kid too soon and I figured I can take along friends. I also love the extra space for her diaper bag or anything we take with us. She also enjoys the extra room!
Question:	Do I need to buy an attachment for the bike or will it attach as it comes
Answer:	I’d go with the lowest weight limit that has been found- I would think 40 would be plenty for this thing. I love it but I wouldn’t put too much weight in it. Great for our 1 year old, gonna try our 2 year old should be fine this year, if it last for the 3 year old Summer, it was way more than worth it! Got it on sale for $70 and had a great time last year! Get a helmet for safety.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be converted from trailer to stroller on the go? If I ride a bike to the market is there storage on the trailer to hold the tire and handle

Answer:	Yes. Only works So so for flies inside though, other bugs it works. But you also cannot smell the attractant at all.
Question:	Does it have a strap in the middle if only one child is riding
Answer:	I would assume it would protect the unit itself from getting messed up. But if you do try it let me know how that works out for you.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there a newborn sling or something for a 3 month old to ride in this trailer? I would love to take my daughter
Answer:	The Thule chariot cx 1 has an infant sling. Unfortunately, they are very expansive and rare in the US, meaning that getting them at a discount or used does not happen often. It all depends where you ride it, how you ride it and what quality all of the equipment is. Pushing a stroller or jogging with one is not different. So, yes, there is equipment out there that allows you to put an infant in a trailer that is safe but it costs over $1000. If you are into it though that system converts into a stroller, a skiing trailer and so on.
Question:	Is the tire air tires? If yes are they all air tires
Answer:	The two tires on the side of the trailer are are tires, the tire that you install to use as a stroller is plastic and not air filled.
Question:	Do kids need to wear helmets while in the trailer
Answer:	I have this trailer and was riding with a 3 yr old and 15 month old. I had an accident and did a "superman" over the front of my bike, flipping my bike, going about 15 mph. They wore no helmets. The trailer tipped to one side. While both were scared, neither one was hurt. If I were on a busier road, I would helmet them but the trailer makes it hard for the seat to be comfortable because it pushes their head forward where the helmet rests against the back of the seat. Use best judgement- the "cage" is metal and can endure some damage but then again, little brains don't like to be shaken.
Question:	Is this trailer suitable for a 5 month old in a car seat and a toddler on the other side
Answer:	Absolutely NOT! Car seats are designed to be used in a CAR! The bike trailer is not as stable as the back seat of your car and hence the ride for the infant will be much more bumpy. The infant does not have the neck strength to withstand a pothole or big bump. And while you might think you will be careful not to ride over any potholes, etc. the risk is too great! You'll need to be watching traffic, and things like the the trailer's clearance when riding along a street with parked cars or pedestrians on a boardwalk. With that many things to keep in mind you are taking an unnecessary chance with your child's health and well being. And finally, the manufacturer says this trailer is NOT for children under 12 months old, AND in addition to being 12 months old, they need to be able to hold their own head up, and sit up on their own. Please do not take the risk.

User questions & answers

Question:	does the bike trailer come with the coupler attachment and a flag
Answer:	Yes. Everything that's needed is in the box, except for children, i.think.you have to provide your own
Question:	What's the minimum age and weight
Answer:	It states in the description that it holds two riders at 40 lbs each, and 20 lbs of cargo in rear, so a total of 100 lbs capacity. I'm unsure of age.
Question:	Does anyone use the stroller like a jogging stroller or is it just a basic stroller
Answer:	I would not jog with it. It has a little wheel on the front that swivels. I use it as a basic stroller or on the back of the bike.
Question:	Hi - I just purchased this and the specs on the box say that the weight limit is 80 lbs and not 100 lbs. which is correct
Answer:	I just spoke with Schwinn and they confirmed that this product has a weight limit of ONLY 80 lbs. They said they have tried contacting websites/sellers to correct this but it is up to the discretion of the site to correct it. She further stated that each seat is only rated for 40 lbs. So you can't have a 20 lb child sitting with a 60 lb child. For further information, please call Schwinn.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the difference between the premium and new delux versions
Answer:	The Premium jogger comes with the directional wheel and the Deluxe jogger comes with the universal wheel.
Question:	Is there any detailed instructions for attaching it to my bike
Answer:	Detailed is a bit of a stretch but yes, there are instructions with pictures for assembly and bike attachment and the safety information is very well covered. Hope this helps! We haven't used this with a bike yet but it was easy to assemble and we have loved using it as a stroller.
Question:	My husband is 6'4". Is he going to be comfortable pushing this as a jogger? Our current stroller is too short for him
Answer:	I believe so. It has an adjustable handle, & once it's all together the tires add a bit of height. I'm 5'10", & I use the handle one setting above the lowest, which is pretty comfortable. But I'd be sure to check the sellers return policy before hand, just in case. I will say that I am in love with this jogger/trailer. It's a very smooth ride, & my daughter seems to love it as well. There's also little pockets inside for toys, or whatever you'd like to fill them with.
Question:	How easy can it transform from bike trailer to stroller? Are tools needed
Answer:	It is actually really easy. No tools needed.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the honey bee come with the 12.2mm steel hitch
Answer:	29"×20"×9"
Question:	Does this trailer come with a flag
Answer:	45 lbs is pretty big for this trailer. My guy is 35 lbs and he is comfortable sitting up in it, but it's a tight fit laying down and he dislikes it. So, assuming yours will stand up the entire time, you gotta take wide turns and maintain a low center of gravity to ensure the trailer doesn't tip. Mine jumped out a few times, so you have to attach them with the built in short leash. A mirror looking back is critical so you can see what he's doing... I'd do lots of short rides in safe, uncongested places before taking him in any environment where there are peripheral dangers such as traffic, lots of people, and swerving.
Question:	Can the seat be removed or unsnapped
Answer:	The bottom of the trailer is designed with a frame, fabric, mat and liner for full support for the pet. Thank you.
Question:	Want to use for my dog. Dimensions? Can seat be removed
Answer:	It comes complete with everything you need and it's easy to assemble , no you need nothing else to get started just hook it up to your bike and go. my Yorkie's love it I think
