I am seeking opinions on which is better to let one's child pedal - a stoker conversion kit that
lets the child ride as a stoker on a tandem or a trailercycle. We currently haul our 4.5 yr old in a
burley, behind our tandem, but soon it will be time for him to graduate from the trailer. We are
considering the trailercycle or the stoker conversion. I can think of pros and cons. The
trailercycle-tandem combo will be very long, but not much more than our current rig. The conversion
kit possibly makes it hard for an adult to ride as a stoker again. I would think that the tandem
captain would have a hard time providing nearly all the power once the little one gets bored and it
is not on his agenda to pedal. Please let me hear your experiences.
Thanks Stu
