Using Your Croozer
Guidelines and tips for riding with children in the
Bicycle Trailer
When pulling a loaded trailer, the handling, balance
and performance of the towing bicycle will be affected,
especially when starting, braking, turning and riding
downhill. It is vitally important that you familiarise your-
self with the Croozer before you use it for transporting
children. Prior to your rst trip, we recommend taking a
practice ride without your child(ren) in a calm, trafc-
free area; load the Bicycle Trailer with cargo of approxi-
mately the same weight as your child(ren), for example,
by strapping a loaded rucksack into the seat. This is a
great way to acquaint yourself with the handling of the
bicycle and the dimensions of the trailer.
The safety ag on the long, vertical pole will make you
more visible to other road-users. Never ride without the
safety ag properly mounted.
Always ride with the cover closed to protect passen-
gers from injuries associated with stones and other
road debris, as well as ying insects.
Always use available bike paths or lanes when pulling
the Bicycle Trailer. Be especially careful when riding on
narrow bike paths or lanes, as well as on paths and trails
with two-way trafc. The trailer is generally wider than
the handlebars of the towing bicycle. In addition, most
trailers will not be centred behind the towing bicycle. Re-
duce your speed in places where navigation is especially
challenging; and if you are ever in doubt about whether
the trailer will be able to t through an opening, dismount
and push the bike and trailer through.
When turning left, never allow the angle between the
rear wheel of the towing bicycle and the hitch arm of
the trailer to be extended more than 90°. Turning at
sharper angles could damage the hitch connector. Be
extremely cautious when turning right, as sharp right
turns can cause the wheel to hit the hitch arm, poten-
tially damaging the hitch arm and/or the rear wheel of
the towing bicycle.
One-seaters and two-seaters both use the same
hitch arm. Therefore, one-seaters will not be perfectly
centred behind the bicycle. This has no effect on the
handling or safety.
Reduce your speed when riding on paths or streets
with bumps or uneven surfaces to keep the ride as
smooth and safe as possible for your passenger(s).
Reduce your speed when turning. Otherwise the cen-
trifugal force could cause the trailer to tip over.
Be cautious, patient and attentive when riding with your
child. The rst few trips should be short and easy, to
give your child time to get used to riding in a trailer.
Children in the Bicycle Trailer should wear a helmet at
all times. In the case of an accident, a helmet provides
additional protection. In some countries, the use of
helmets is required by law.
Dress passengers appropriately, and check on them
frequently to make sure they are comfortable in the
Croozer, with adequate ventilation. Under the Rain
Cover, the passenger compartment can become
warm more quickly than otherwise, especially in direct
sunlight. However, in colder weather, children sitting
inactively in the trailer will feel colder and need more
insulation than the person who is pedalling the towing
bicycle. In the winter months, be sure to cover pas-
sengers with a blanket, or use a footmuff. You will nd
