This tow-behind child carrier fits most bike styles, thanks to a versatile bike coupler. The maximum weight limit is 80 pounds (two 40-pound children) with an additional 12 pounds in the rear-seat storage area. Some assembly is required.
Description. The InSTEP Quick and Easy trailer conveniently attaches to any bicycle. It has a 3-point harness system to offer a comfortable ride for your children. Its 16″ pneumatic tires have molded rims that provide superior performance and good looks.
The weight of your trailer can be figured out by looking at the VIN sticker located on the frame of your trailer. Locate the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) on the sticker. The GVWR is the empty weight of the trailer plus the capacity that the trailer is rated for (also known as the MAX GVCC ).
In general, the average cargo capacity is 4,400 pounds. However, some 12-foot enclosed trailers only have a gross vehicle weight rating of 3,000 pounds. Longer units are rated as high as 10,000 pounds.
Determining Your Tow Vehicle`s Load Limit
Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from the number listed on the placard. The resulting number is your available amount of cargo and luggage capacity.
For convenience, a bicycle towing a trailer is also free to use a kickstand when stationary. Although this may not seem like a big deal, consider that there may be plenty of times where you are not able to perch your bicycle against a mile marker or wall – requiring a kickstand to rest the bicycle.
Bicycle Trailers
Trailers that you pull behind your bike are a popular option for hauling toddlers and children up to about 6 years old. Trailers are stable because they`re low to the ground and easy to steer.
Are Bike Trailers Safe On The Road. The good news is that bike trailers are generally very safe. They are designed to be towed behind a bike and can even be folded up when not in use. Most bike trailers have safety features like reflectors and brake lights, which make them visible to other drivers on the road.
Two Wheel Trailers
Hitching the Travoy to the seat post mount is an easy one hand operation. This allows you to stabilize the bike, or manage groceries with the other hand!
Ball Mount
Ball hitches are one of the most common accessories used in towing, and they consist of a shank and a ball platform. A tube connects the shank part to the hitch receiver. The shank portion of all ball mounts has a hole to accept the hitch lock or the hitch pin that secures the trailer to the ball mount.
If you don`t have enough weight on the trailer tongue, the trailer may be prone to swaying from side to side, making it difficult to control. Conversely, if you have too much weight exerted on the hitch ball, the force could overload the rear tires of the tow vehicle and push the rear end of the vehicle around.
Begin by weighing your vehicle without the trailer hooked up. Then, hook up your trailer and weigh your vehicle again, without letting the wheels of the trailer touch the scale. Take the weight of your vehicle by itself and subtract it from the weight of your vehicle with the trailer attached.
No matter what kind of bike you have, there`s almost certainly a way to attach a bike trailer to it! For the most part, bicycle trailer brands and models can be attached to bikes in a similar way. It`s usually a simple and quick process.
Some mountain bikes have 12mm though axles, so you`ll need a special axle (Robert Axle Project) in order to attach a bike trailer to your mountain bike. Even so, as long as you follow the instructions provided by the trailer/axle manufacturer, you will have no problem attaching a bike trailer to your mountain bike.

I just bought an InStep® Joyrider Bicycle Trailer and the photo’s are not very good. When attached is the bike trailer hitch supposed to attach perpedicular to the bike and the spring bends to 90 deg. when pulled. It seems odd to me, almost like there should be another part.
ANSWER : The hitch part that fastens to your bike rear axle has 3 pieces, a dimpled washer which goes on first then the hitch plate and a pin that holds the trailer to the hitch. Take off the axle nut (15 mm wrench) install the dimpled washer it goes on with the 90 deg tang facing the bike wheel and in the channel so it can’t rotate. Then put the hitch plate on, mine faced down for the correct height, line up the dimpled washer with the bumps on the hitch plate to locate it properly. reinstall the wheel nut and be sure to align the wheel so it runs straight and true (I oopsed on this the first time) then attach the trailer, it is a 90 deg hook-up then you simply put the the pin in and you are good to go. The unique hook-up makes it so smooth and dampened that you don’t even know it’s behind you. We really love ours!
