Safety Guidelines

1. Inspect and maintain your bicycle and trailer regularly.
See "Safety Checklists".
2. Because of the trailer's additional weight, a bicycle pulling a
trailer is heavier and less responsive. Avoid sudden swerving,
rocks and curbs. Experiment with the loaded trailer in an
uncongested area until you become familiar with it.
3. The minimum age for the cyclist is 16 years.
4. The maximum trailer load limit for children and/or cargo
is 100 lbs/40 kg (in Europe). Load children and/or cargo
securely in the center, forward of the axle and as low
as possible.
5. The trailer seat is intended for 1 or 2 children who are old
enough to wear helmets, sit upright and alone, and with
adequate neck strength to hold their heads upright while
trailering. A physician should evaluate anyone who is of
questionable developmental age for trailering.
6. The maximum age for passengers is 6 years (Honey Bee) or
3 years (Bee). Never carry a child whose sitting height (with
helmet) is above the roll bar.
7. Fasten the seat belt and shoulder harnesses so that each
child is held securely. Seat a single child in the center.
Periodically check the placement of the shoulder straps,
especially on sleeping children.
