Protects same from elements. Also suitable for three binbagsworth of inanimate cargoes, which can also be protected from the elements. Pneumatic 12" wheels. Clamps onto your non-driveside chainstay.</p> <p><a href="https://flic.kr/p/qWNh8w"><img src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7282/16372682628_996249e296.jpg"></a></p> <p>It can be ridden through the Leith Links chicanes...<br /> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZ0CjGVNjaM" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZ0CjGVNjaM</a></p> <p>...and up the hanging zigzag of Springside:<br /> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwbbtkfwLQY" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwbbtkfwLQY</a></p> <p>It comes with a flag and a couple of plastic pole things, though it's lost its connecting bungee and so usually gets velcroed in place. It comes with a handle and a front wheel for conversion to a side-by-side double buggy; though the front wheel is secure the mount is a bit bent. It can be collapsed in less than ninety seconds:<br /> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Olqa74aZDQ" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Olqa74aZDQ</a><br /> ...and erected in about the same time. It probably takes about another minute to attach to the bike, depending on how fast you can tighten a knurled handwheel thing.</p> <p>£40 or thereabouts? Buyer to collect, from vaguely near Leith Links? <a href="http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/?pm=new/wingpig">PM</a> if interested. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13944#post-179437 Fri, 30 Jan 2015 20:44:55 +0000 biketrain 179437@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@Condor2378 Trailgator now removed from bikes And ready for collection.

I've looked into spares but they are expensive which would defeat the purpose of getting a cheap towbar. Bike Station might be worth a shot though. I'll pop in over the weekend. Thanks. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13944#post-178699 Fri, 23 Jan 2015 16:30:28 +0000 SRD 178699@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>bike station worth a shot? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13944#post-178698 Fri, 23 Jan 2015 16:25:16 +0000 DaveC 178698@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>EBC do sell spares.</p> <p>We bought a non Trailgater (copy??) from the Rod Steiger school bike sale a few years ago but never managed to get spares, despite it having a manufacturer on the thing. :O( </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13944#post-178660 Fri, 23 Jan 2015 13:02:54 +0000 condor2378 178660@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>So I got the trailgator a couple of days ago as posted above, tried to fit it last night and it's missing the brackets for connecting any bikes, both child and adult. On the off chance that it was donated by anyone here, could you have a look and see if said brackets are still installed on your towing and towed bikes please as all I have at the moment is a metal bar.</p> <p>On the slight chance that the donor is here, and has them, then can you please PM me.</p> <p>Thanks very much. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13944#post-178239 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 18:09:58 +0000 condor2378 178239@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Thanks </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13944#post-178234 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 17:37:03 +0000 chdot 178234@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Outside at lunchtime. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13944#post-178232 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 17:27:41 +0000 acsimpson 178232@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I assume it's in the charity shop here:<br /> <a href="http://www.debra.org.uk/shop/shop-search?postcode=marchmont">http://www.debra.org.uk/shop/shop-search?postcode=marchmont</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13944#post-178231 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 17:22:12 +0000 condor2378 178231@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@chdot</p> <p>I've been looking for a cheap towbar and that would do me nicely.

(Esp with aluminium frame).</p> <p>Ta, Duncan 07902 294878 </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13944#post-172327 Fri, 14 Nov 2014 21:43:16 +0000 SRD 172327@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hamax with fixing bracket £20 ono </p> <p>Copilot Limo - free - seat still fully usable but is lacking the rear flap that acts as one of 2 safety catches in addition to fixing mechanism . You'll need a Blackburn rack to make use of it. </p> <p>Also a canyon s/m child's helmet in black and white - looks vaguely pandai- ish. Size says it fits kids with heads 52-57 inches but we've had to get a new one for our boy because it clearly didn't fit him properly after a year or so of use. Cost £5 at the bike coop new so Happy to hand it on for free </p>
