Trailer Bikes for Children with Special Needs

Tag Along Bicycles for Disabled Children and Adults

Children and adults with special needs can enjoy the fun of cycling by riding a trailer bike specifically designed for disabled people who cannot cycle on their own.

Trailer bikes are essentially the rear portion of a bicycle. Also known as tagalongs, they are popular with families, allowing parents to take their kids out for the day without having to worry about whether they will get tired.

Most bike trailers are designed for small children with a weight limit of 80 lb/36 kg. This restricts their use for older heavier kids and people with special needs or disabilities.

Fortunately there is now a solution which allows disabled people of any age to enjoy the thrill of cycling.

Caboose Trailer Bike

The Caboose is a two wheel trailer bike manufactured by Morgan Cycle, specialists in beautifully designed retro bikes, trikes and scooters for children. Not only does this unique “trike” offer increased stability for those with special needs, the two models available can both take a person weighing up to 200 lb/90 kg.

Features of the Caboose Bike Trailer

  • Two models available, the Caboose 20 suitable for 5-10 year olds up to 26” inside leg and the Caboose 26 suitable for riders up to a 33” inside leg.
  • Sturdy high-carbon quality steel frame construction for durability.
  • Specially designed quick release hitch attachment is safe and easy to use.
  • Folds to 46″L x 23″W x 24″H for compact storage; wheels can be removed for very tight spaces.
  • Quality wheels with full bearings ensure a smooth ride.
  • Padded sprung seat for comfort.
  • Storage rack incorporated into the design allows luggage to be carried.
  • Quick and easy to assemble and simple to maneuver despite being 70” long.
  • A seatback is available to offer the rider additional comfort and stability.

Cycling Gives Joy to Special Needs Children and Adults

The stability of a two wheeled trailer bike allows those with disabilities to experience the thrill of cycling without the need to steer, maintain balance or even see where the bike is going. Traditional one-wheeled tag alongs can sway from side to side under certain conditions so the added stability of two wheels removes any potential fear allowing the rider to simply enjoy the ride.

Where to Buy a Trailer Bike for the Disabled

This high quality unique bike trailer is well priced at only $299.99 (+ $30 for the larger model) and is available online from Pedal Cars and Retro Collectibles with free shipping in the US. Customers in Canada, Alaska and Hawaii can order the Caboose for an additional shipping charge.

Tag Along Bicycles for Handicapped People

The Caboose is an innovative product giving those with special needs the freedom to enjoy the joys of cycling that would otherwise be unavailable. Whilst pulling one with a 200lb passenger on board may be demanding, every pedal stroke is sure to put an enormous smile on the rider’s face.
