Kids Ride. Moms Review. You Decide. Helping you find the best in bikes!
Two Wheeling Tots is on a mission to find the best in bikes for kids. From balance bikes and pedal bikes, to bike seats, helmets and bike trailers, we've done all the research so you don't have to!
I'm new to da' whole ebike world. This is hands down the best trunk bike reack review on RU-vid. Def leaning towards the Allen Premier but wanted to know if it will hold weight of 1 75lb ebike. Thanks and keep up the good work!🔥🔥🔥
My daughter is very tall and has always been in about the 97th percentile of height. At around 2 1/2 I transitioned her to the woom 1 plus because I already had one. If I didn’t have one, I would’ve just kept her on the woom 1 and let it be a little small for a while. She transitioned to a pedal bike at two years and 10 months.
Been running the Burley Cub X for over a year now. I bring the kids everywhere in that thing and they love it. Off-road trails, rain storms, playground hopping, green market shopping, cruising the neighborhood... the Cub X handles it all with ease. We use it A LOT and it still looks new. The hard plastic tub/floor was the big selling point for me. I bring them through grassy fields and wooded trails all the time and was worried about asharp stick or rock lodging up and shooting through a fabric floor. That plastic tub adds peace of mind and rigidity. This is the type of trailer you can use for years. Already decided I'm gonna keep it once the kids out grow it. The seats fold away so it can double as a great little cargo trailer. Perfect for picnics at the park.
Hi. Any idea what the max weight/height the Thule Yepp Mini is? I’m looking to purchase it and get a couple of years out of it. My girl is 16 months but she’s tall for her age.
I loved the video until you said it’s not good for long rides. That’s why I wanted it. My 4 year old gets tired after a couple miles, so I was hoping this would get us a few more miles..
Hi, thanks for your video! We have a Huyndai Kona and I'm thinking of getting the Deluxe or Premier for our 2 bikes. Do you think that their rack will be okay to drive on highways at 140km/hour speed? That's my main question.
Hello, I have a secure fitting where the coupler is, but the end of the thread is barely out. I was thinking about getting a skewer. Does the size depend on the bike? Which one was used from the video? Please provide link, if possible. Thanks!
Most skewers have the same diameter, so you would need to worry about getting one long enough to work with the coupler. If you order one you’ll be able to quickly tell if it’s the same diameter as the one that is already on your bike. If you order from Amazon and it’s not the right size, it’s super easy to return.
It will definitely damage the child’s bike. The mounting leaves scratches in the head tube. Not only in the paint but also in the aluminum. Probably also on the fork. I would never install it on my mountain bike. I didn’t install it to my wife’s bike but I bet there are scratch marks too.
Great review, however I have a huge doubt that no video on RU-vid has really made clear. I plan on buying the lite for my son he's 5 and Im concerned he might be too big for this trailer. Could you perhaps tell me the kid's height and tell me your honest opinion on how spacious the lite is
If you’re buying the Lite at age 5, you’re going to get very little use out of it before he’s too big. Weight limit is 49 pounds. My daughter last used it when she was 43.5” tall. If you watch this Reel, you can see how she looks at that height. instagram.com/reel/CWTG8kTALXF/?igsh=bXZ4bWdjYjN2d2E0
Which single seat trailer would you recommend for tall 5 years old,city use and some light off road usage? Looking for the the most spacious and comfortable. I really appreciate your response!!
A five-year-old is going to outgrow a trailer very quickly. The Wike brand does make larger trailers primarily to accommodate older, special-needs kids.
Thank you for the video. It helped me decide to buy the Alta. I am not a grammar-(national socialist) but please stop saying dampen and dampening. The VelociRAX has a damper that damps the motion. Dampen is to make something wet. Fox Suspension has a wonderful video explaining the difference. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-d2Q7VfNUBEg.html
There are no child bike seats that we know of that are designed to fit on that, but there are also no child bike seats that have been safety tested to ride at speeds up to 35 mph.
At three years old, they might be just able to reach them, but by four they should be able to solidly reach the pedals. (For the average kid) the Blat model doesn’t have pedals, but has platforms that are closer and easier for shorter legs to reach and rest on them.
My grandson had a balance bike AND a small toy tractor (tricycle) at the same time. On the bike he learned balancing and countersteering, on the tricycle he learned to steer reverse and park a “car” and had his pedalling skills improved. At the age of 2 yrs, 3 mns he combined the two on a Woom 2 in half an hour.
That’s the Priority Classic Plus www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=app&ti=1019&mi=16029&pw=195205&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.prioritybicycles.com%2Fproducts%2Fpriorityclassic2&ctc=best-womens-bikes_amcid-2iQZUgi3posssEVeA6VJO
One could also strap up the bike in an overhead bar. The child can climb up and practise all by herself. My little grandson had a small balance bike and a little toy tractor with steering wheel and pedals. A lot of muscle training going uphill. So in the end he combined balancing and steering when he got pedals on the bike.
I'd be careful with the statement that Thule is the best company you can invest in. I've bought their most expensive trailer and it started falling apart within 1year, with stuff like brake screws falling off, never glued properly in the factory. It's been 4 weeks of the warranty processing and will take at least 6 more. Absolutely outrageous for a company charging such prices for their products. Also bear in mind the prices of the spare parts are insane,
We appreciate you sharing your experience! We have tested and owned many, many Thule products over the years and have never had an issue similar to this. That said, no product or manufacturing process is perfect, so it sounds like you got a real doozy. We're sorry it's such a pain!! Is this the Thule Chariot Sport you're referring to?
@@Twowheelingtotsbikes Yeah, I've just learned that after 5 weeks since the case started they are only picking it up from a shop, so in total I'll be at least 7-8 weeks without it. For no reason. Had I known it I'd fix it myself.
Yeah, that sounds a bit ridiculous. Sounds like they should just replace it so you don't miss more riding time. It's expensive enough that you certainly can't just go out and by another trailer to tide you over until this one is fixed. :-(
@@Twowheelingtotsbikes exactly and that wouldn't be even that bad.. if not the fact that this chariot is the only place where my toddler sleeps during the day, so we struggle everyday without it. I've had other products from Thule before, they are ok but not really standing out. Chariot has a good competition too. And so have the bike seats. Having seen the attitude of their customer service, I'll think twice before buying anything from them
Yes, but if you have a thru axle you will need a special adapter. Also something to keep in mind... larger wheels come closer to the front of the trailer. On many cheaper trailers, the front cover doesn't do a great job of keeping kids' feet inside, in which case it's possible for taller kids to stick their feet out and potentially touch your bike's rear tire.
