Converting a "Jogger" into a Bike Trailer?
A few years ago, I got my hands on a couple of prototypes for baby joggers -
those three-wheeled strollers that people shuttle their babies around running paths with. I'm not sure they ever passed any kind of safety testing, so I wouldn't put my grandkids in them, but I'd like to convert them into trailers for hauling groceries, etc. Have any of you ever done this, and would you care to share your plans? Thanks! |

may have said: A few years ago, I got my hands on a couple of prototypes for baby joggers - those three-wheeled strollers that people shuttle their babies around running paths with.

Go look at the coupler arm on any of the common kiddie-carrier trailers for inspiration. One method (of questionable virtue) for making the coupler is to use an air hose quick-disconnect fitting, but I prefer a 3/8" socket u-joint for flexibility and a slip-tube connection with a pin. (Of course, my method is easiest if you have a welder.) -- My email address is antispammed; pull WEEDS if replying via e-mail. Typoes are not a bug, they're a feature.
