It was easy for my bike man to fit – and then easy for me to use – mind you i need to have the bikes leaning on something else to attach and detach her bike. Space-saving: The FollowMe is quickly and space-saving stowed - on the car, in the Farradkeller or in the train. It’s worth mentioning that the standard FollowMe Tandem comes with a hub adaptor for the child’s bike with a bolt on axle. It is a faff getting it set up at first but once you’ve got it all straight you know what needs doing the next time you use it. Tenue de route parfaite, équilibre sûr, maniable à 100%, pratique avec son déploiement facile et poids négligeable surtout si l'enfant pédale.

Ein kleiner Abzug Müssen wir machen, da die Verschraubung sich am Kinderfahrrad nach einiger Zeit löst. Though there’s a couple of issues I’ve had with it that I think are fundamental flaws and have made me look for alternatives. Das Material schwer, wie ein Damenrad von 1960, der Preis übertrieben und Schäden an den Rädern müssen in Kauf genommen werden. If you’re looking to tow your kids by bike, you have several different options, each suited for different purposes. This can range from slightly annoying to quite stressful if you’re trying to navigate on a busy street or when passing other cyclists on a single path.Also, the manual has been translated from another language so care needs to be taken when reading it through, but take your time and it goes together fine.

Because it attaches to the adult bike on two points and to the child’s bike on three points, it’s much more stable than the Trail-Gator and there’s none of the leaning to one side.Next, I love the fact that I can safely navigate and ride on roads with my son being attached to my bike. This means there is little risk of damage to the bikes – I’ve heard of damage to head tubes caused by over tightening the clamps on these alternatives, in an attempt to compensate for this listing. So you are safe on the road, always get to your destination and the children are slowly introduced to cycling and traffic.

This gave us much more opportunity to use the bikes instead of public transport or the car to get about, something I was very pleased about. Select the hollow axle option if the front wheel of your child's bike is secured by either allen key bolts or a quick-release skewer. When it’s Tow Time, the FollowMe is lowered to the ground, locked in place, and attached to the child’s bike via two points of contact – protruding front axle adapters, and a bracket on the down tube. Attaching and detaching the coupling was a bit tricky for me at first, and in the first month I tipped my bicycle twice while attaching, but with practice it is now effortless. Außerdem muss der Bügel des Followme, der in dieser Halteklammer befestigt wird, um 180° gedreht werden.The first to test out the FollowMe Tandem was my youngest son, who at almost four years is keen to get on his wheels at any opportunity. Fitting the FollowMe Tandem is reasonably straightforward, though the instructions could be clearer and better translated. This happened to me when I was carrying my son in his bike seat to the emergency room for a head wound! Adding the child bike is similarly quick and easy: roll the bike into the frame, slide its arm into the bracket on the down tube and secure with thumb screws.

I noticed once how it got loose (luckily early enough before an accident could happen) and it certainly scared the hell out of me. I had hoped to attach it to my Kona MinUte, but because of the location and size of the inbuilt pannier rack, it wasn’t possible.I wanted a setup that seats both kids upright, where they can see and participate in the bicycle ride. As well as attaching a new child’s bike to the FollowMe Tandem, I’ve also attached it to my Gazelle Heavy Duty NL, so I’m able to tow our youngest instead of my other half. The instruction booklet has nice imagery that certainly helps, although there are a few steps that you’ll kind of have to figure out on your own. This is the bolt that connections the main part of the FollowMe Tandem with the extendable bar that attaches to the down tube of the child’s bike. Sidenote: My suggestion would be to use some blue Locktite 243 with the axle extension, just to make sure that it has not the slightest chance to come off by accident.
