View Full Version : Tandem Trail-a-Bike

Hello everyone,

I'm looking for a tandem Trail-a-Bike to haul behind our tandem with our almost 7 and almost 5 year olds. Anyone know of a source? Adams hasn't made them in a couple years. We have tried solo riding with the kids on two separate Trail-a-Bikes but my wife isn't comfortable enough with it so I'm now on the hunt for a tandem Trail-a-Bike.

Thanks for any leads,

David

And let's keep the discussion in experiences and availability of models etc. No direct buy-sell posts, please (the For Sale & Want To Buy -forums are for that purpose). Thank you.

Your looking for a two person trail a bike. I've never seen one in person or our bike shops but saw one on Ebay recently when I was looking for another single.

Whoops, sorry about that. I can't seem to post in the For Sale & Want To Buy -forums, but I thought perhaps the tandem folks would be the best ones to ask about these.

The only one I've ever seen is by Adams and is no longer made. They pop up on Ebay pretty regularly; there's one for $399 right now. Going rate seems to be about $400, more in the summer.

I've seen pictures of a British made one with two wheels and side-by-side seating, but they seem to be no longer made.
