Converting the Croozer to a Bicycle Trailer
Installing the axle hitch to the towing bicycle
The hitch assembly is always mounted to the left side of
the bicycle (relative to the direction of travel) and consists
of two parts: a hitch connector (1), which is attached to the
hitch arm, and an axle hitch (2), which must be mounted to
the rear axle of the towing bicycle.
Before installing the axle hitch, you must rst check
whether the bicycle is suitable for towing a trailer. This
information can be obtained from the bicycle manufacturer,
a bicycle shop or the owner’s manual of the bicycle.
It is vitally important to confirm that the towing bicycle is
suitable for pulling trailers. Pulling a trailer with a bicycle
that has not been approved by its manufacturer for use
as a towing bicycle can result in frame breakage or other
material damage. Breakages of this kind could cause ac-
cidents with serious injury or death.
If you are not completely condent about your ability to
install the axle hitch correctly, please consult with, or
have the installation performed by, a professional bicycle
mechanic.
It is vitally important that the axle hitch be properly
installed. An improperly installed axle hitch could come
loose while riding and cause accidents with serious injury
or death.
Installing the axle hitch to a bicycle with a quick-
release axle
Tip: If the bicycle wheel is equipped with a thru axle
(with quick release lever) instead of a conventional
quick-release skewer, the thru axle must be re-
placed with the Croozer Thru Axle available as an
accessory. Other hitch axles are also available as
accessories.
The quick-release lever must be positioned on the right
side of the bicycle (relative to the direction of travel). If the
lever is on the left side, the quick-release skewer must be
removed and reinserted from the right side. Be sure to fol-
low the applicable instructions in the owner’s manual of the
bicycle and/or consult a professional bicycle mechanic.
1. Open the quick-release lever (1) on the rear wheel
of the towing bicycle or loosen the Allen bolt (5 mm),
depending on the type of quick-release skewer. Often,
the open position is indicated on the lever by the word
“OPEN”. In this case, when the word “OPEN” can be
seen, the lever is in the open position.
2. Remove the axle nut (2) of the quick-release skewer
by turning the nut anticlockwise. Use caution: the
spring located just beneath the nut is under tension
and could y off when removing the nut.
3. Fit the axle hitch (3) over the end of the quick-release
skewer without removing the spring.
4. Thread the axle nut (2) back onto the skewer. Tighten
the axle nut at least ve full turns (clockwise).
The axle nut must engage the threads for at least five
full turns in order to ensure adequate clamping force for
