"The shotgun seat was great when my son was younger, but now that he’s pedalling his own bike, the hills can be pretty challenging for his little legs. The tow rope has been a game changer, now we can tackle bigger adventures together" – Dan

Nous ne l'avons pas utiliser encore. Il s'agit d'un cadeau de Noël, mais à première vue, il s'agit d'un produit de qualité. Mes enfants vont aimer porter le sac.
This strap is fantastic, we use it with our three year old who sometimes rides erratically and the tow rope seems to just gently drag her back into place when she rides off track. Easy to take on and off and easy to tow. Means we can go on long bike rides with the kids now which we love without any whinging about tired legs. Highly recommended.
Beautifully constructed - intact probably over constructed, well thought out piece of equipment that has elevated days out with my kids. Downhill days and extensive trail days are no longer problematic, this easily stowed rope has enabled so many different experiences for our family. The only thing holding us back on shredding days is my own fitness! Highly recommended
My 2 year old is stoked to have his own fanny pack. And he loves getting a "TOW-EE" on the up hills.
I initially just wanted the tow strap, but after some thought I wondered where it would be stored (everything needs its place). So I caved. I bought the combo with the fanny pack. Not only does my son love the strap, he loves the bag, and he loves carrying it around with all sorts of things. It’s truly become an essential piece of “bike-gear” that my little one has to don when he decides it’s “bike time.” The strap itself is a great concept! It’s intended only for uphill use, but I use it to pull my slowpoke behind the stroller as he learns his balance bike. I’m stoked to eventually use it on the trails. I would highly recommend this combo to compliment the other awesome KidsRideShotGun items!
