I’ve heard them called trail-a-bikes, tagalong bikes, trailer bikes, and tandem trailers. Whatever you call them, my daughter loves hers. One of our favorite activities is to hitch it up to one of my bikes and go to the park. Normally I connect it up to my Electra Townie 21D which is a perfect bike for that. But the other day my dad was using the Townie so I hooked it up to my Cannondale Synapse. Big mistake. We barely made it to the park as I struggled to stay upright. So now I know road bikes are definitely not made for this. So while I wholeheartedly recommend one of these things, make sure you hook it up to the proper type of bike.
bad idea
