Trixie Conversion Kit for Jogging Buggy

Bargain, check 'new and used' for returns at a good price! Good quality German engineering, everything fits as it should. The fixing points on the frame to mount the handlebar brackets are not easy to access, they are just a slit, far better if the cover had a flap to expose the full width of the frame tube. Whilst the parking brake works as it should. A pair of brakes would be a bonus for going down hill, and operated from the handlebar. The front wheel is difficult to inflate due to the access round the spokes, a bent valve stem would be easier.

Had a little trouble putting the bar in that held the two sides apart, even hubby found it a struggle, but guess the canvas was more taut as new, with usage will become easier? Adding the conversion kit was easy. Old Lurcher loves his stroller, he can ride down the long lane to the beach, conserving his energy for paddling and playing with his beloved tennis ball, at 15 1/2 years he is in reasonable health but tires quickly, so this saves me carrying him on the way back! Even tried my big pup in it just for fun, but he looked bemused! Not used this as a trailer as don't have a bike!

In summary, the Trixie 12817 Jogger Conversion Kit is a practical solution for active parents who want to get more use out of their bicycle trailer.

This kit is recommended for parents who enjoy cycling and jogging with their little ones and want a convenient way to switch between the two activities.

Bought this to go with the Trixie bike trailer (which I'd give 5/5) – we use it for our elderly staffie Maddie who can only manage short walks (30 mins max). The idea is that she can hop in and out of her 'pram' and join us on longer walks again. It's OK to assemble – I managed it on my own with no help from Him Indoors – and is easy to push etc. The assembly instructions aren't great and it *does* take a bit of breaking in for the wheel to move smoothly (thus 4/5 rather than 5/5) but once it's settled, it works nicely and is very quick and easy to assemble and take to bits. It also folds down well and fits in a small car boot. Maddie is still getting used to riding in it at the moment – she's a bit nervous so it takes time to train her to new things – but on the short trips we're currently taking, she seem happy. I can't comment on 'off road' performance yet, but it goes will on pavements and cobbles. The set up is sturdy, well made and suitable for the tricky-to-suit medium-sized, heavier breeds. She's got loads of room in the cabin (with the Medium sized buggy) – and like popping her head out of the top window and 'periscoping' around! I also like that the cabin has both mesh and plastic panels, so you can keep the rain out if your dog is a big baby (ours is – hates weather of any kind that isn't sun). All in all, it's excellent value and both Maddie-the-staffie and I would recommend it. I haven't got any 'action' photos yet, but here she is getting used to it as an indoor bed before we started going outside... gives you an idea of how big the 'cabin' bit is. Tip: if you get one, also get some vet bed and cut to shape. It comes with a mattress type thing, but it's a bit slippery and I suspect won't wash well. If you put vet bed on top, then it's grippier for the dog so they don't slide about, cosier (works nicely as a bed-on-the-go), and you can wash it easily.

Read the various reviews & thought it can't be that bad can it. Well despite the instructions, just look at the sketches. It was easy to fit & after a lot of walking nothing has come loose. The front wheel is fine the brake is fine. I re drilled the handles to make the clips easier to fit. The tyres can be inflated using a £1 adapter from any bike shop except halfords who are still in the dark ages. Its easy to push & works a treat so perhaps i know how to assemble & dismantle in less than a minute. Oh i did buy this as an Amazon return for £5.70.

Excellent and well made. I wish i had bought one years ago. Easy to remove wheels and to attach to the bike. Now I can stop leaving my old dog behind as much and rake him biking and walking with the younger two. At 15 1/2 my old dog took to it easily. Money well spent. Christyne in the Lakes.

This item was necessary to convert the trailer to a stroller. The first item received had a brake missing and there was some delay in getting a replacement. Whilst the main trailer is sturdy and absolutely perfect the design of the conversion kit could be much better. The handle bars attachment was perfect and had and easy quick release. The brake was not that good as it kept coming loose and sticking on when you were pushing the pram. We had to carry a screwdriver with us, but you have to remove one wheel to get to the brake screws. The front wheel attachment was difficult to fit, and was not quite the right fitting for the trailer points, so we struggled and jigged it around each time we had to put it on, but once on it was perfectly secure. As we were only using the trailler as a stroller It would have suited us to leave the front wheel fitting on and only remove the front wheel so a quick release front wheel would have been better. Also, we bought this version for the swivel front wheel but it kept getting stuck and was difficult to turn if the screw was tight so we used it with a loosened screw but had to carry an Alan key to keep securing it and you have to watch it did not come out completely. So in all, the trailer was perfect, the conversion kit a necessity and although we found this invaluable on holiday in the hot summer, there could be some improvements to the conversion kit. All in all however, it is still the best combination we could find on the market at the time of our purchase and allowed us to keep our elderly dog who is unable to walk far with us. Would still recommend in the absence of any other product that does not deal with the issues above.

Good product however the instructions are terrible to follow so took a while to put it together!

Passgenau Einfache montage

Super ombouwset. Heel veel plezier van voor mijn bejaarde hond. We kunnen hem nu overal mee naartoe nemen.

Mit dem Jogger-Umbausatz lässt sich der Hundeanhänger sehr leicht schieben und lenken. Durch das 360° schwenkbare Vorderrad ist der Wagen gut steuerbar. Der Griff hat eine gute Höhe. Sowohl meine Frau mit ihren 1.75 m, als auch ich mit 1.90 m Höhe können den Griff ergonomisch greifen. Der Griff hat aufgrund des Schnellverschlusses etwas Spiel, weshalb er beim Greifen und Schieben etwas hin und her wackeln kann. Dies ist aber nicht weiter schlimm. Der Griff und das Vorderrad lassen sich schnell und ohne Werkzeug ab- und anbauen. (ca. 2 min insgesamt) NEGATIV: Nur die Bremse ist an einer schlechten Stelle montiert. Will man den Wagen vom Jogger auf Fahrradanhänger umbauen, müssen die beiden großen Räder von der hinteren Position (Jogger) auf die mittlere Position (Anhänger) des Wagens umgebaut werden. Allerdings ist auf der mittleren Position die Bremse im Weg. Diese lässt sich leider nicht so schnell ab- und anbauen wie die anderen Teile. Wäre die Bremse an der Vertikalstange zwischen Griff und Rad angebracht, hätte man dieses Problem nicht. Zudem ist die Bremse vom Griff aus schwer zu erreichen. In engen Räumen (z.B. Aufzug) muss man sich von hinten, wo man den Wagen schiebt, ganz schön lang machen, um den Bremshebel zu erreichen, der vor dem linken Rad sitzt. Langfristig werde ich die Bremse wohl komplett weg lassen, da ich öfters zwischen Jogger und Anhänger wechseln muss, auch unterwegs. Da kann ich dann nicht 10 min nur für die (De-)Montage der Bremse gebrauchen. Zumal man für eine stabile Montage einen Kreuzschraubendreher braucht. Wie ich den Wagen dann aber fixieren kann, weiß ich noch nicht. Vielleicht muss ich dann immer ein paar Türkeile mitschleppen oder einen Stock zwischen die Radspeichen schieben.

Ici il s'agit du modèle pour trixie M. S'adapte parfaitement à condition de choisir la bonne taille, pour ma part j'ai un trixie taille L, il faut prendre contact avec le vendeur petotal, qu'il vous envoi le modèle adapté comme pour moi.. Sont très réactif et sérieux je recommande vraiment

Si può trasformare il trasportino in passeggino però fare attenzione alle misure, quello che ho preso è troppo grande e devo adattarlo.
