| Consumer Guide reports that CycleTote's "padded seat is by far the most comfortable of all the trailers." It hangs from front to back rather than from side to side. Thus with two children there is no tendency to slump together in the middle. The 5-point harnesses are fully adjustable with a unique shoulder strap adjustment allowing expansion with growth for a continuing perfect fit. It comes with side by side harnesses but allows for reconfiguration to a single, center harness. |

| Trailer Breakdown |
|
|
|
The Family Model breaks down in three easy steps: (1) Removal of quick release wheels (15 seconds). Note that the automatic braking system wheels are not, and cannot be, quick release. (2) Removal of tongue by loosening red wing nuts (15-20 seconds). (3) You have your choice of roll bars, clamp-on or quick release. Removal of clamp-ons require use of a hex (allen) wrench and can take 2-4 minutes The quick release, or pin type, limit convertibility but allow removal in 15-20 seconds by pulling 4 detent pins. If you must break the trailer down regularly (such as to transport in the trunk of your car), the quick release option is recommended. |

| “hallo and thanks from Germany...I bought my trailer for "seventeen years"...my children (17/ 9 and 3 years) changed their size, their mothers changed in my partnerships...but your trailer looks like the first day...it`s really the best and I can`t understand, that you don`t export your trailers to Germany...with best regards. Christoph, Germany” |
