[#3881312]

I'm looking to get a new hardtail for towing my daughter around with her FollowMe tandem and I'm considering getting a 29-er.

Does anyone know if these things will work with a 29-er? The website says the following:

[b][u]Parent‘s cycle:[/u][/b] For all 26“ and 28“ city, mountain (incl. fullies), racing and touring cycles etc. with quick-release skewer wheel attachment.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Yeah, should work fine - it attaches to the rear axle so being a 29er won't matter and a 28" bike is a hybrid which is basically the same overall wheel size as a 29er

The FollowMe comes from Germany, so is this just European terminology?
i.e. our 29-er is what they call a 28 inch wheel?

That makes sense then cause I've ordered Continental tubes for my 29er before but the packaging states 28 inch. I've often wondered.
