Child cycle trailer that converts into buggy

[dvatcmark]

Calling all cycling parents help needed!

I've got a 1 year old and need to get out on the bike more, and at the weekend I saw what I think is the perfect aid. A cycle trailer to carry madam (the 1 year old) that converts into a buggy by adding a quick release front wheel.

We've been looking into a more off road buggy already as ours is useless on anything more than grass, and I think this trailer / buggy combo will be perfect.

Has anybody got one they can recommend or have seen / used one before?

I used a Burley trailer with mine, they are expensive but brilliant.

We've got a bog standard halfords one that doubles up as a buggy. Its a two seater though so pretty bulky to use as a buggy. Fine if its and and about in plenty of space but wouldn't want to use it for everyday purposes. So fine if you're not looking to have it as your only buggy. My boys love the trailer just wish they weren't getting heavier to tow. You'll also need to get used to strangers staring and talking to you. For some reason people think its a novelty thing that they have to comment about. On the plus side this also makes it a milf magnet too, lost count on the number of women that go all dewey eyed and comment on how 'cute' we look as I tow the kids round teh park.

Spokey Joes single child trailers currently £59 new and delivered from Amazon. Not exactly what you're after but disgustingly good value. Cthe same model is £99 in Tesco online. My 11 month old lass loves it.

I bought mine about 3 weeks ago. I just did a search on "Spokey Joe".

Bugger must have missed the offer, do you know if it can be converted into a buggy or is it trailer?

Sorry, just a trailer, but at that price I'm sure you'd have been happy to compromise.

I have an Adventure AT3 double trailer. It's a great trailer at a good price and you can get a pushchair converter kit for it that that I also have. It's very stable and has plenty of storage space in the back. I have even put my son's balance bike in the back when he got tired.
Well worth it in my opinion.

Chariot is the Rolls Royce of such things but comes with a Rolls Royce price tag also.
