There seems to be a clear distinction between child trailers: those costing less than £100 and then those that will set you back in excess of £500. I want to keep future world champion safe and sound but would appreciate any advice from those with first hand experience of either?
I'm mulling over a 'Chariot CX' second hand which I would imagine will hold its value. The Chariots and Burleys look really well constructed and have the advantage of converting to joggers so he can join me on a run at the weekend. However is there sufficient distinction to warrant them costing 5, 6 or 7 times as much as one from Halfords, which would also meet all required safety requirements.
Would one be able to cope with the likes of the Ridgeway or reasonable off-road tracks (I'm not thinking twisty singletrack here obviously)?
When only carrying one child (at the moment!) is there a real advantage over the cheaper and easier to store bike seat option? I'm thinking better stability etc for the rider of the bike?
Any advice from STW sages welcome..........
I fear it is now likely to sit in the garage collecting dust
