Safety Guidelines:

Trailercycle shall only be pulled by a responsible adult.

Burley trailercycles are designed for children ages 4-10 with sufficient coordination to pedal and adequate strength to hold on to the handlebars tightly. If your child is physically or mentally impaired, consult your physician as to whether your child can safely ride.

Both riders must wear helmets.

Adjust the seat and handlebar to the correct heights for each rider. Ensure that the minimum insertion mark, or at least 2 1/2” (64mm), on the seat post remain inside the frame.

Before your passenger gets on and off the trailercycle, come to a complete stop, straddle your bicycle and hold it securely with the brakes engaged and both feet on the ground. Never rely on a kickstand to secure the trailercycle.

Practice with your child in an uncongested area. Pulling the trailercycle adds length and weight to your bicycle; allow for ample time and distance to stop, start, and turn.

Take short rides; stop frequently. Instruct your child to keep their feet on pedals and hands on handlebars at all times.

Recommended speed limits:

15mph (24km/h) on smooth, straight roads 5mph (8km/h) when turning or on uneven roads

Do not exceed weight limit by attaching a rack, panniers, or other cargo to the trailercycle.

Do not attach another trailer to the trailercycle.

Keep the tire inflated to pressure recommended on the tire sidewall. Check pressure before each use. Do not use higher-pressure or knobby tires. Be sure axle nuts are properly tightened.

Do not use off-road.

Do not use at night without proper lights on both cycles.

Avoid rocks, curbs, hard braking, and sudden swerving.

It is recommended that a qualified bicycle mechanic does a safety check of the towing bicycle before attaching the trailercycle.

It is recommended that a rearview mirror be used on the bicycle.

Always comply with local regulations when using the trailer on public roadways. Obey all local requirements for lighting. The red reflector that came with the trailercycle must remain attached and visible at all times. If you need to come to a stop for any reason, such as to check on your child, to make adjustments, or to address a flat tire, be sure to pull off of the road completely.

Use good judgement when deciding if weather, road, or traffic conditions are safe to use a Burley.

Failure to comply with the instructions and safety guidelines in this manual could result in serious injury or death of the passenger or rider.
