Schwinn 13-SC315 Rascal Bike Pet Trailer, For Small and Large Dogs, Lightweight, Tow with Bicycle, Up to 50 lbs. Small, Orange/Grey

My boyfriend has been bugging me to go bike riding with him but I never wanted to because I didn't want to leave my little fur baby behind. I didn't want to just attach her leash to my bike handle and ride with her along side because it's just such a dangerous idea. So we decided to get this pet trailer so we could take her with us safely. This is one of the best purchases I have made in a long time. And compared to other pricier pet trailers out there that are hundreds of dollars, I have no doubt that I made the right choice in this one. It was only $85.00 when I paid for it. Worth every penny and then some! It only took a few minutes for us to put it together. My boyfriend is an avid cyclist and kept praising how well designed it is. They thought of everything when they designed this pet trailer! There's a small little strap and hook to attach to her harness so she doesn't get too far if she tries to jump out. My boyfriend mentioned some mechanism on the wheels that help absorb the bumpiness on the road to ensure a smoother ride for our pup. There's a small pocket on the top if you want to store the pins after taking it apart and folding up. All the features it is designed with are functional and practical. There aren't many bells and whistles on this and that's how we like it. It's very cute and the little flag is adorable. Aesthetically it is very tastefully designed. It's also very sturdy. I have a 23-25lb beagle and there is plenty of room inside for her and another dog if one of her buddies wanna hitch a ride. We put a blanket and some toys with her but she doesn't care. She just loves the feel of the wind blowing through her ears. She looks so cute riding in it and she really seems to enjoy it. (see pic) When we're done with our bike ride, it folds up nice and neat to store until next time. We have alternated with attaching the trailer to each of our bikes and we both felt that there was barely any extra weight we were pulling and it was very smooth. Neither of us felt a difference. He even fights with me over who gets to pull her on the bike! As others have mentioned there is a strong rubbery smell when we first unpacked it however it went away after letting it sit out of the box overnight. After our bike ride the next day the smell went away. It is not that big of a deal. So my boyfriend concluded there is no reason for us to drive anywhere from now on now that we have our bike riding solution for our little baby. All that's left now is to get her a little doggie helmet and we will be all set. :)

We had been looking for a bike trailer so we could take our Italian Greyhound mix (15 lbs) with us on our e-bike excursions. I decided to spend a little more and go with Schwinn, rather than a random "TikTok" brand, and I'm not disappointed that I did. The Trailer breaks down compactly pretty easily for storage and transit. It's easy to setup and connect to your bike. There is just a lone nut that holds it to the axle of your rear wheel, then it just clips in with a pin. Barely adds any time to our setup. We go pretty quick on our e-bikes on crushed limestone trails. The trails can be windy and hilly, but through all the turns and hills, I hardly notice the trailer is back there. The dog is happily just looking around, soaking up the breeze and scents, waiting for our lunch/refreshment stop. We like the tall, bright orange flag too. Now my wife can easily find me on wooded, winding trails, because she can see the flag flapping in the breeze. We love that our pup can now enjoy us on our empty-nesting e-bike adventures.

After reading reviews and looking at many pet trailer options I chose the Schwinn. Great choice. The carton arrived undamaged. The product was super easy to assemble and had all the pieces; instructions were easy to follow. The new rubber smell of the interior mat was powerful so that went outside for many days. We didn’t have any fabric issues as some have had. I rather prefer the back entry door being solid fabric and not a screen because I’d rather my dog face forward and not be tempted to scratch at a back mesh screen. This adds a little to to the wind resistance but worth it. I will say it would be nice if the wheels were marked left and right. The tread pattern should face in such a way that if any water is in the road it should dissipate out the side of the tires and not be channeled to the center if put on the wrong side. Speaking of tires - the psi is 35 which is great for minimal rolling resistance but can make for a less than smooth ride at times, even on the best pavement so perhaps it’s better at 30 or maybe even 25 — can’t imagine taking this on a trail. Puppy would hate it. And make sure your trailer is tracking straight forward to promote long tread wear. Have an extra inner tube with you just in case. We slowly acclimated Ozzi to it by leaving it assembled in the living room for a week; put some toys in there; put some treats in there; and soon he’d go in on his own and just hang out. Then we’d get him set up in it with his blanket and small bed and tow him around the house treating along the way. This made his inaugural journey well liked. He was nervous, no doubt. Perhaps he read the reviews of 50 pounders shoe horned into this trailer with not great results. But being 15lbs it fits him perfectly and we’ll be off for many trips to the local donut shop :-). Enjoy and ride safely.

We put both of our Shih Tzus in at the same time and it is fine. My wife pulls it with a new Schwinn 7 speed pedal assist electric bike and she loves it. The dogs are warming up to it. The reason I subtracted a star (and maybe I shouldn't) is because one of the wheels is bent and from behind that wheel wobbles like, well, like a bent or warped wheel/tire would. The actual product shouldn't have a warped wheel so if I am actually to review the product and not the fact that a mistake was made in the QC area, the product works wonderfully and looks super cool when my wife tows it. It was fairly easy to put together and hook up to the bike, not super easy, fairly easy if that makes sense. You do have to "work for it" a bit.

Absolutely love this bike trailer! I have a 40 pound cattle dog the medium sized trailer works perfectly. I was worried that he would jump out of it, but it does have a leash attachment to keep him in place (I wouldn’t trust him not to jump out of a car and he’s stays in this thing no problem). My only complaint is that it’s not very easily collapsible so unless you have a large vehicle, it might be a pain to transport. Also be aware on tight turns, the only time I’ve flipped the poor dog over was when taking a 90° turn on the sidewalk. The dog absolutely loves this thing and we routinely go for 10+ mile rides without any issues

I bought one of these to take several of my pets on rides with me. The trailer assembled quickly and easily, and getting the coupler mounted on the bicycle was simple as well. Once it's all together, it's very solidly constructed and the connection to the bike is top notch. All of the hardware included is good quality...and the trailer itself is good quality. The stitching and zippers on the material all seem well made, and I have no fear of it ripping or the pets managing to pull open one of the zippers on their own. So far I've taken it for several rides with my two dogs, a 10 pound chihuahua and a 12 pound muttly chihuahua. They seem to like it, and it seems to keep them comfortable. They both just sat in the trailer and enjoyed the scenery!!! I have plans to take one of my cats...one that is a bit more rambunctious...out in the trailer to see if it can stimulate his energy a bit and tucker him out at home!!! One thing to note...when pulling the trailer and any animals in it, it's going to change the workout you normally get while riding, simply because of the fact that you're now hauling around 25 pounds of trailer and however many pounds of animals...in my case, it was like strapping 50 pounds of extra weight to the back of the bike. Sure, it's on wheels, but at the end of the ride I could definitely feel that it had taken more of a toll on my legs than when I ride that route without the trailer mounted. Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase. It will allow me to take the dogs on rides, and hopefully allow my wife and I to take them to enjoy the bike path and days out in the park with us.

I first bought this item in 2019. It has been wonderful. I have put over 7000 miles on the bike pulling my smiling dogs behind. Replaced the tires once - they needed it. Little duck tape here and there. It performed excellent The other day one axle broke - after all those miles, and I immediately ordered another Rascal. I love it that much.

This was packed well and was extremely easy to set up. I was happy with the quality of the fabric on the trailer and the chassis structure. Wheels are easy to install. No tools are need for setting up the trailer but you will need a wrench when attaching hitch to the bike rear hub. We have ebikes and there was no issue with removing only the nut and washer and adding the hitch. So far, Chauncey has about 7 miles as a passenger and loves it. We had no problem maneuvering the trailer while riding and, it didn’t sway in any way. I hardly knew it was there. This trailer is light and easily collapsible for transport. For those who say it can easily overturn, it’s because the bikes are not being driven in a safe manner. Would purchase again.

Really simple to build and fold away, takes less than a minute. Super easy to use on bike. Really pleased.

Nunca creimos que fuera a estar tan bonito y de tan buena calidad. El remolque lo compramos para nuestro pug que pesa 9 kg y por sus dimensiones y peso, le quedó perfecto y ahora nos acompaña encantado a nuestros paseos en bici. El remolque trae puerta trasera para que aprenda a subirse y bajarse, así como una correa anclada a la estructura para que lo amarres de su pechera y evites el riesgo de que pueda caerse o echarse a correr. También tienes la opción de llevar la ventana cerrada (con un plástico transparente), abierta (con mosquitero, como se ve en el video) o completamente descubierta. El sistema de anclaje le queda a cualquier bicicleta y trae doble seguro en caso de que este llegara a fallar y no se suelte el remolque en el camino. El piso del remolque trae goma gruesa (muy dificil de rasgar) y antiderrapante, pero encima le coloqué una colchoneta para que el princeso vaya más cómodo. Una vez que lo terminas de usar, el remolque se desarma muy fácil y se pliega sin herramientas para que lo puedas almacenar sin ocupar mucho espacio.

Muito bom, fácil de instalar e de boa qualidade, atendeu as expectativas e necessidades.

Perfect for what we were looking for. We have 2 mini schnauzers about 15 lbs each and they both fit in the trailer comfortably, with extra moving around room. Very easy to assemble, took me about 5 minutes to attach the bracket on the bike, and assemble the trailer. Folds down nicely for easy transport, we are campers so this feature is great. I bought an extra bracket so my husband and I both have a bracket on our bikes. Bike stands up nicely with the kick stand down to load and unload the dogs, rides very smooth. I could hardly tell I was pulling anything. I would definitely recommend this trailer.

Más de tres años con él. De calidad. Eficiente para perros pequeños; duda en perros grandes. Compatible con cualquier bicicleta. Se guarda bien.
