| Schwinn Trailblazer Bike Trailer by Schwinn Great Deal! |
I bought this about a year ago. My son and I go all over Chapel Hill with it. He loves it, and so do I. It's a great way for me to spend time with my son while running errands and getting exercise. We never vacation without it. If I were designing this trailer I might tweak some things, and I've seen features on other trailers that look nice, but I think you'd be a fool to spend more on a trailer unless you were planning to do some serious single-track mountain biking with your child in tow. It's like harnessing your child into their own roll cage, which makes it WAAAY safer than a bike seat.
The only minuses I can even think of are a cheap front wheel for the stroller conversion (it's made of plastic), I had to reglue the safety flag, and it doesn't lock in the folded position. All of those can be fixed if you're willing to spend double the money on Burley or a Chariot. Save your cash. You're a parent. Put it in your child's college fund! |
| Schwinn Trailblazer Bike Trailer by Schwinn A great bike trailer. We have no complaints. |
| We have had this trailer for about 6 weeks and have had no problems with it. We assembled it without complaint and the kids have loved every ride in it. This trailer has a soft sling seat. We debated paying more for a trailer with a hard seat but glad we did not. Our kids are 5 1/2 and 3 1/2 so they can keep themselves upright. They have not complained about the seat at all or fought about squishing into each other. When we looked up this trailer online to compare it to the InStep version we were considering, it was on the InStep website . . . Makes me think the Schwinn version is made by InStep also (?). We bought it when it was $124 (not sure why the price fluctuates so much) - a super great deal at $124! We have not yet used it as a stand-alone stroller and have not tried to collapse it for transport or storage so I can not comment on those features/functions. |
| Schwinn Trailblazer Bike Trailer by Schwinn Good Quality |
| For the money it is a very good product and very easy to assemble. Only cons would be that it is a bit small to accomodate 2 childrens, at least mine's (3.5 year boy and 1.2 year daughter). besides that it is very good and lite to pull. |
| Schwinn Trailblazer Bike Trailer by Schwinn Good Bike Trailer but not great Stroller |
| The trailer was fairly easy to put together and attach to the bike. I was disappointed to realize that the handlebars and stroller wheel have to be carried separately when using the trailer. I thought they attached then folded out of the way but they don't. The harness system did take a few tries to get adjusted so it would hold my 9 month old son somewhat comfortably. It helps to tighten the front straps under the sling seat but not tighten the back strap as much. The shoulder straps sit kind of high on my son's neck near his ears but not to the point that it seems to bother him. There is no head recess to allow room for my son's helmet when biking. The inside pockets/drink holders are a nice feature for older children. The trailer is easy to pull when I am biking - the extra weight is barely noticeable especially on flat surfaces. I also enjoy inline skating but don't recommend this model for that or jogging. The stroller wheel does not roll very smoothly or as fast as I would like and the assemble rattles a lot when going a good pace. I had to keep lifting the wheel up to enjoy the outing. (I did order the Mark III for skating and it rolls smoothly in the stroller mode but I was disappointed with the quality for the higher price.) The trailblazer is a good trailer for the price if you don't plan to use the stroller feature very often. |

I bought this trailer for my son. He and his wife are avid bikers. They are very satified with the stability of this trailer, the ease of converting to a stroller and how easy it is to stow in their cars. When he was assembling the trailer, his 15 months old son sensed that its for him, so he climbed into the cabin.
That makes me a happy grandfather. |
