Well, they didn't get the money.

Peter Jones described it as 'pretty niche' though so I imagine your orders are going in right now! :p

Fundemental issue there, what takes all the impact if you crash?

Point taken, but those little follow-on efforts are at risk from the legions of useless tailgating drivers out there.

taga is a better product isn't it?

Also I can have a descent mtb and a trailer that turns into a stroller and jogger for the same money

They didn't know their market well at all and it showed

Totally agree with the bit about the bike though - it's "another bike" and would have been much better if it was something that could be fitted to existing bikes.

I don't see any benefit at all.

£600 on a mid range hybred style bike
£500 on top of the range chariot trailer / stroller

Still saving money but you still have a usable bike.

I see no benefit at all to this product.

It's quite hard to see a kid in a trailer to check they're ok.

But yes, I'm oot too.
