WeeRide Co-Pilot Bike Tandem Trailer for Children

We previously had the Weeride Kangeroo Bike Seat for my son and then daughter to ride with us on bike rides. We loved the idea that they were sat in front of us instead of behind where we couldn’t see them. Once my daughter had outgrown the seat, we purchased this.As I said it’s brilliant, my nearly 4 year old loves coming out on bike rides with us and ‘riding her bike’. She’s only short but can reach the pedals fine, can hold onto the handlebars and get on/off by herself. My 7 year old can also ride on it so it’ll last a good few years.The bike was fairly easy to put together and fit to the bike. We did a couple of test rides round the block to check it was ok and the bolts were tight enough before venturing out further.The plastic mudguard that protects your child from mud off your back wheel had a crack in it, I contacted Weeride with photos and they sent a replacement out straight away. Their Customer Service is very good.

The Good: This is a fantastic tag-along bike and my daughter (105cm tall) loves to ride it. She is generally an anxious child, but she didn't hesitate a second to climb onto the bike and cycle around the block with me. The bike is sturdy and doesn't have any build issue (as few reviewers have encountered). Everything fits well and is assembled within 30-40 minutes. My daughter is comfortable even on 1 hour long rides and is able to help me cycle uphill (while otherwise she just let's me do the work).The bad: Moving parts come completely dry. There is no grease on the chain or in the bottom bracket. Accordingly there is some noise when cycling and things may rust after some time. So, you need to bring this bike for servicing (or do it yourself) even though it's brand new. The plastic mudguard is quite flimsy. Both items are not a deal breaker, but it's also not a 5 star experience.

Excellent. Does exactly what it says on the tin. Its a heavy unit so dont expect some lightweight pull on your bike, but thats what I wanted. If my kids are riding behind me i want to feel like im pulling something substantial. The connector will pull your saddle post out of alignment if you go around a sharp corner, otherwise this a well designed solid tandem and forget the extra £40.00 for aluminium model, its a 2Kg difference.

Comes pretty much put together. Solid construction. Yes it's a decent weight but to anyone fitter then a couch potato its barely noticeable. Corner turning is easy, just don't cut corners, acts like a trailer to a car obviously. My son, who cannot ride a bike even with stabilisers yet, loves it. Great way to learn them to pedal. He couldnt do it on his own before, 5 mins on this he was oeddaling properly

I bought this to get my 5 yr old interested in cycling (as he is nervous riding on his own). Used several times over the last week and he loves it. Its almost as heavy as my bike, but actually with my son pedalling it doesn't feel as noticeable as l expected. For the price is value for money and I now have a five year old bugging me to take him out on the bike. Well worth buying.

Love this tag along! My son has some anxiety issues about riding his own bike without stabilisers, this tag along is perfect for him.It does weight quite a bit, and you will have to work harder to pull it along, but it is enormous fun, and has certainly helped get my son out from in front of the computer!It is a very well made and sturdy tag along. I am over the moon with this purchase!

While it took time to assemble as instructions were only in German, it is much loved by my 6 year old son. I find it turns well with my bike with my bike which is great and makes it feel safer.

My daughter loves this, it is very heavy but it’s not like I’m going racing with it. We have done 20mile runs with no problems and very little complaining from the rear passenger.
