Burley Solo ST Bike Trailer
Safety always comes first and this rule is of utmost importance especially if you are dealing with kids. This is the reason why Burley Solo ST Bike Trailer is highly recommended among the bicycle trailer products. This has been tested for safety and has a proven security system.
It has a great hitch system, which is easy to install and very secure. Its design is excellent because it offers optimum maneuverability. The hitch is attached directly to the bike frame near the axle, which makes it more secure compared to being attached behind the seat or onto the luggage rack.
However, it is the neck of the hitch that sets this Bike Trailer apart from the other brands. The neck of the hitch is made of rubber or a similar material that flexes every time the neck is twirled. Just imagine if the bike falls over! If your bike trailer is not sturdy enough, then the bike trailer will be tossed too. Luckily, with Burley’s adaptable neck of the hitch, it only bends or twists if the bike falls over. It means your kid is safe even if your bike flips.
Another advantage of this bike trailer is that it is very spacious with lots of interior room. You can stuff it with extra diapers, and toys to keep your child entertained, blankets, and other extra things you need to bring. Aside from the spacious area, it also has an additional storage area behind the seat.
The cabin is also made of good material. It is well insulated against all possible weather conditions.
As for the dismantling part, it has quick-release wheels and the frame of the bike trailer collapses easily.
Another fantastic feature of the Burley Solo ST Bike Trailer is the weight and width. It is lightweight with narrow width, which makes it easier for you to pull and maneuver. Also, because it weighs less, you can hardly feel that you are dragging something at the back of your bike. You don’t feel any weight at all because the trailer glides smoothly. As a result, you will enjoy biking or cycling more.
The weight restriction is 6o pounds including the child and extras.
If your child has outgrown the bike trailer, there is nothing to worry about because it has a great resale value. Perhaps it is because of the guaranteed safety and excellent quality of the product.
Also, here are few recommendations which you want to consider before purchasing this item:
· Transporting this bike trailer in a small car with another bike can be a real challenge because it has a large bottom. Otherwise, it needs to be folded in order to fit in the car.
· There are other accessories that you can buy in order to take advantage of its functionalities such as jogging with it. However if you use this mainly as jogger it is discouraged. Its elevation from the ground is not really high and the wheels are too small to move smoothly on the curbs.
In general, the Burley Solo ST Bike Trailer is highly recommended though it is quite expensive because nothing is pricier than the safety and security of your kids.
