Very happy with the bike attachment. Easy to set up and well engineered. Works perfect with our double stroller

I don't understand how noone complains about this but our chariot CX 1 trailer is heavily off center with this attachment. It appears it would fit a double trailer better. I don't understand how this is advertised to fit both CX 1 and CX 2 since they have a different width. In my opinion there should be two different versions of this attachment.

Its expensive. Believe I paid close to $150 for a piece of metal. It includes the rod and attachment to put on your bike.It's worth it if you bike alot, and have to tow around kids. I have it on a chariot cougar 2. It fits fine and early to install, and take off.

El producto venía incompleto sólo una barra de enganche. A mi juicio un timo no soy el primero que le sucede.

This kit comes with everything you need to attach a carrier to your bike. I bought the spindle thingy(sorry no idea what it's called at the moment) because I wasn't sure if the kit came with one, it does.Easy to set up and has held up great!

We love this bike adapter! This is the 2nd we have purchased and use it with both our single and double strollers nearly every day - one of us will take the kids somewhere and leave the stroller for the other to pick them up. The 1st one we bought over 3 years ago, and with the switch from Chariot to Thule the items included (reflectors, etc.) with adapter have improved.In addition, my kids are active and have on numerous occasions knocked over the bike while the stroller was attached and the adapter works great in keeping the stroller upright and the kiddos safe.

This kit is great! It not only comes with the hitch but reflectors to go on the back of the stroller and also the flag. It is a very nice hitch and easy to instal. Works well with both my husbands bike and my own which are a 2013 Fuji mountain bike and a 2013 Karakoram GT mountain bike.

BEWARE, this item does NOT fit the chariot cougar stroller. If you click on the Chariot bicycle Trailer Kit, this is the only one that comes up. It isn't spelled out very clearly that it doesn't go with any other Chariot stroller besides Chinook. I discovered this after purchasing it and tried to put it together with the Cougar stroller and read one small review stating the fact. The one that does fit was very difficult for me to find on Amazon, but it is there available at Mountain Sports via Amazon with free shipping (not prime) and is item #20100506 (this trailer kit is #20100507). Shipping it back and waiting for the proper one to arrive.

First, to be clear - this kit is part number 20100506 and will NOT work with the Chinook line of Chariot carriers (that part number is 20100507). Even the Thule website seems a little unclear on this. So if you have a CX/Cougar/Cheetah, keep reading.This kit gets you a well built and sturdy hitch for your bicycle. It is NOT something that's going to fall apart after a few miles. Indeed, it's obviously designed to serve serious riders, and serve them well. There are two parts:1) The bicycle end, or (IIRC) EZHitch. This is a ball and socket-style hitch that stays on your bike, mounted on the left side. If your bike has a quick release skewer, installation is a snap. If not, you can still mount the hitch, you just need to install the hitch cup under the axle nut. I have the latter and it went well.2) The hitch arm, made of aluminum but very sturdy. When not in use, the hitch arm snaps into a bracket on the side of some carrier models (namely the Cougar and IIRC the CX - Cheetah owners don't have the bracket), giving you lots of flexibility. The stroller kit wheels are removed in Trailer Mode and stored upside down in the VersaWing bracket. The hitch arm then goes in the front and fits into the hitch. When you get to your destination, replace the stroller wheels and put the hitch arm in the bracket on the side of the carrier, and you have a stroller. Very nice.The kit includes reflectors and a flag as well, to make you nice and legal. Each side of the hitch also includes safety straps to keep everything together in case a hitch connection fails.As for use, because the hitch uses a ball and socket design, you get a more flexible connection than other typical hitches. This means that you can lean better into corners without worry that the trailer is going to tip over. You do get a bit restricted doing a right turn vs a left turn, simply because the hitch is on the left side. However, the entire shebang is a VERY smooth ride versus other trailers, especially during turns.Now then, as for your towing rig. The Chariots tend to be in the 25-30 lb range and that's BEFORE you put your kid and other cargo into it. I figure the average weight of the trailer for most people will be at least 60-70 lbs total, more if you have the two-child carriers. What I'm trying to say is you need to pay attention to your bike and make sure you're set up for the different handling characteristics you'll have. For instance, I'm using an oldish mountain bike to tow this rig - it has a wide gear range and pretty heavy-duty brakes. A light touring/road bike may need some brake upgrades (at the least) to make pulling this thing safer. You will have increased stopping distances, and I've already mentioned the turning issues (which thin touring tires may have some issue with, but YMMV of course). Main thing to consider is that it's easy to drop money on the trailer, but you have to also consider your ride.All that said, if you already have a Chariot carrier, this kit is a no brainer. If you're thinking about a convertible carrier/stroller, rest assured that this kit gives you best-in-class performance for a Chariot converted to a bike trailer.
