I have an older Burley d'Lite trailer, the kind in the attached photo, which I picked up second hand. The "V" strap wasn't doing a good job of holding the little one, so I bought the upgraded seat from Burley. That helped, but I still had issues with the seat back pushing on his helmet and making his head lean forward. I put a foam pad behind him to scoot him forward to get around this problem, but then he doesn't have much of him sitting on the seat and I suspect that may not be comfortable.
Other than that it's a fine trailer. I would like to upgrade the trailer to a newer d'Lite, but I'l still like to buy used. I understand the newer d'Lites have a recessed helmet pocket. So how old of a d'Lite (or a Burley Solo) can I get that will still have this feature?
