Schwinn Rascal Bike Dog Trailer, Carrier for Small and Large Pets, Easy Folding Cart Frame, Quick Release Wheel, Universal Bicycle Coupler, Washable Non-Slip Lining

My dogs hate being in this but the product itself is good, feels sturdy and safe.Easy to put on/off bike. I like how it folds up for storage. I would have preferred blue but that was a lot more money for some reason compared to the orange. Good thing about orange i guess is that it stands out more.My main complaint would be that there is nothing on the trailer to secure to a bike lock for anti-theft. Its so easy to unlock that anyone could walk of with it.It wouldn’t take much for the manufacturer to put a handle or d-bar in the trailer somewhere to enable locking. You have to be creative with it if that is something you want to be able to do with it.Have only taken it out once, but so far so good.Otherwise Im happy with it!Its expensive but these trailers generally are for some reason and i guess its a bit more expensive than others on the market because its advertised for pets only! Good marketing.I don’t have a photo of my dogs in it yet (I have two 8lb dogs) but will upload one later!

When my wife and I decided to retire our child trailer after more than twenty years of service we found the offerings slim for a dedicated dog trailer for our 10 lbs bichion "peaches". Despite the brand name and great price, the schwinn rascal pet trailer seemed low on features, heavy in weight, and cheaply made judging by the specs. We purchased it because there weren't alot of other options, and after using it for three months i can say I'm glad we did. The build quality is good and it cleans up well. The construction is simple with easy put up and take down and it stores well. I like to keep the wheels on for maximum ease of use (see photo). Our dog seems comfortable or as much as she can be for being in a confined space. The rascal has plenty of room for lunch bags, beach towels or other small items. Unless your focused on time trials, the added weight is no big deal. Most importantly the wow factor is not lost. You know, watching the delighted anb bewildered expressions of other riders realizing you've got your dog along for the ride. Only a small subset of dedicated riders, dog owners and excentrics know what I'm talking about here.Cons include already showing some signs of whear and a low profile which makes it difficult to look back while riding to check on your dog. Would also have liked to see a screen window in the back of the trailer so that peaches can see my wife riding behind. All in all an excellent price and product. Hope you found this review useful. Please note peaches not pictured to protect her privacy and anonymity.

Two of my dogs will happily go for a ride with me thinking they are the kings of the neighborhood. This is very well made easy to assemble and very light to store in the basement in the winter.

I bought this for our 17lb pup, and it works great. It came mostly assembled and was a breeze to set up. He's only been on two rides so far, but he already excitedly runs up and gets in when it's bike ride time, so we think he loves it!The only reason I rated this at 4 stars was the fact that there is no suspension system for the wheels whatsoever, so when you hit and small bumps or uneven surfaces, the trailer will go bouncing pretty significantly. So if your trails are fairly bumpy, I would keep this in mind. When we would ride on sidewalks, it's nearly impossible to avoid all uneven pavement blocks, since the trailer takes up almost the entire width (maybe 70% the width of a sidewalk), so hitting bumps is inevitable. We put a square bed of his in the trailer to help with some of the impacts, but he will sometimes get airborne! Understandable however considering the great price value.That said, I still recommend it due to the tried and true Schwinn quality.

My boyfriend has been bugging me to go bike riding with him but I never wanted to because I didn't want to leave my little fur baby behind. I didn't want to just attach her leash to my bike handle and ride with her along side because it's just such a dangerous idea. So we decided to get this pet trailer so we could take her with us safely. This is one of the best purchases I have made in a long time. And compared to other pricier pet trailers out there that are hundreds of dollars, I have no doubt that I made the right choice in this one. It was only $85.00 when I paid for it. Worth every penny and then some!It only took a few minutes for us to put it together. My boyfriend is an avid cyclist and kept praising how well designed it is. They thought of everything when they designed this pet trailer! There's a small little strap and hook to attach to her harness so she doesn't get too far if she tries to jump out. My boyfriend mentioned some mechanism on the wheels that help absorb the bumpiness on the road to ensure a smoother ride for our pup. There's a small pocket on the top if you want to store the pins after taking it apart and folding up. All the features it is designed with are functional and practical. There aren't many bells and whistles on this and that's how we like it. It's very cute and the little flag is adorable. Aesthetically it is very tastefully designed. It's also very sturdy. I have a 23-25lb beagle and there is plenty of room inside for her and another dog if one of her buddies wanna hitch a ride. We put a blanket and some toys with her but she doesn't care. She just loves the feel of the wind blowing through her ears. She looks so cute riding in it and she really seems to enjoy it. (see pic) When we're done with our bike ride, it folds up nice and neat to store until next time. We have alternated with attaching the trailer to each of our bikes and we both felt that there was barely any extra weight we were pulling and it was very smooth. Neither of us felt a difference. He even fights with me over who gets to pull her on the bike!As others have mentioned there is a strong rubbery smell when we first unpacked it however it went away after letting it sit out of the box overnight. After our bike ride the next day the smell went away. It is not that big of a deal.So my boyfriend concluded there is no reason for us to drive anywhere from now on now that we have our bike riding solution for our little baby. All that's left now is to get her a little doggie helmet and we will be all set. :)

Item is great, my dog loves our bike rides. He sits comfortably. Definitely recommend!!
