Trail-Gator childrens bicycle tow bar (two available)
From the Trail-Gator web site..... "The Trail-Gator Bicycle Tow Bar converts an ordinary child's bike into a safe, towable trailer bike, whenever desired. To ride attached, simply unclip the tow bar from the stored position on the adult bike, extend it, and connect it to the receiver, which is mounted on the child's bike. When the child's bike is connected, the front wheel is lifted off the ground and a stabilizing bar prevents the handlebars from turning, leaving the adult in control of steering. Children can choose to coast or pedal while they are being towed, making the ride much easier for them. For independent riding, the Trail-Gator Bicycle Tow Bar telescopes together and folds down safely and compactly to the side of the adult bike and is securely held in place by a storage bracket. The tow bar stores discretely out of the way on the adult bike and is always there if needed. This option gives children a chance to ride on their own, and further their cycling skills. Attachment and detachment can be done at any time and only takes seconds. No tools are necessary and no parts need to be removed from either bike. The tow bar weights just 5 pounds and the high-strength steel construction make it virtually indestructible. The Trail-Gator Bicycle Tow Bar gives adults and children the option of riding together or separately for a fun, safe, and enjoyable bike ride. Whichever option you choose, the Trail-Gator makes it possible for you to enjoy the benefits of bicycling with your child."

Both come with instructions and all the brackets and fittings. The great thing about the Trail-gator is that you can use your child's normal bike, so you can be on a ride and quickly go from towing them to them riding themselves. Once the bracket is fixed on the child's bike it stays there. The tow-bar on the adult bike can stay attached, but tucked away, or can be quickly removed if need be using the quick release lever. No tools are required for attaching the bike to the tow-bar. They were fantastic to have when our children were at the stage of being able to ride their bike, but not up to maybe doing a long ride down the Cuckoo Trail, or we were negotiating a busier area. We could just hitch/unhitch them as required. Both in very good condition. We also have two Raleigh bikes for sale in other ads. One for around 2-4 years, the other for around 4-6 years.
