Can this be pulled along without a rider? I bike to daycare for pick-up/ drop-off and wonder if I need to detach and store it each time.

you don't need a rider every time. Is same with or not with rider is so good very nice.

Yes that's what we use it for and we keep it in the garage attached to the bike and pull it out every time we need it without having to reattach it. However it does take up about the length of a car in the garage.

for whomI purchased this I purchased this. he said there is no problem with not having a passenger. my grandson is 5 and they bike all over the parks in Houston. my grandson thanks it was the best Christmas present ever. I'm sure you will enjoy it.

Yes! That is exactly what I did. We rode to school, and I rode home without a rider. You will love it!

Yes. You can ride by yourself without the second rider. As soon as it is attached, the trailer safety becomes one unit with your bike.

Yes, you can pull it without a rider. I keep mine attached at all times in the garage but it's also very easy to detach from my mountain bike.

There is a quick release that is mounted to the bike. It is quite easy to remove and replace the trailer. The hardest part is keeping your kid from running in to traffic while you do it.

Yes, you can keep this around a handle bar, I'm not sure how tight it gets so it might dangle slightly as you ride but it's definitely lightweight and convenient that you can take it on a bike ride with you.

You can only connect the bike that comes with it. It has a special connector welded to the frame that also locks the handlebars for your little one. When you get comfortable with converting from towing to riding mode, you can do it all in about 2 minutes

Should not be a problem. They just have to make sure they don't yank the rope and or start the bike swinging or it could become problematic. I would make sure you don't put the lift systems over expensive property like cars if kids are going to be using them just in case.

Hi Barbara,Yes and no. You can push it from behind the seat or lift it at the seat and the front rollers will let you slide it pretty easily across a floor. It cannot be picked up, by me (59 yr old guy) or you. It is not intended to be picked up. It does not fold at all. If you have any back issues, don't mess with pushing or lifting it. If you can deal with those answers, it is a good bike. I have had it for several months without incident or complaint. By the way, everyone who reviewed it and said the pulse meter does not work tells the truth. I bought a fingertip pulse meter for $100 (yeah--1/3 cost of bike), but whaddaya gonna do?Dave J.

Nope, but it is designed to attach and detach easily, and to be carried around off the bike rack by the top handle.

I don't store it - it's set up in my living room in a corner where I can jump on and off of it throughout the day. You can take it back apart, but I sure wouldn't want to do that too often. It really doesn't take up a lot of room and you could just remove the handle bar and store it under a bed easily. The bar just slips onto the front legs and can be removed if you don't want to use it.

I have a Trek Madone Road bike. The only thing I had to take off was the handle bar and wheels. Just tied up the chain and deraileur with zip ties. Depending on how tall you bike is you may have to remove the seat or at least lower it. Because I don't trust the Airlines, I added foam padding to each side of the bike frame. Be careful not to over load it with gear. The case plus the bike is close to 5o#.

Doesnt seem any easier to actually break up compared to most bikes. The easiest thing to disconnect would be the seat and maybe the front wheel. I almost had my seat stolen once. After that I made a point to run the chain through the seat when I locked it up.

I'm pretty sure you can pull out the attachment, but you can also just untie them leaving only a small black loop. This bike is awesome, highly recommend

You do not have to remove the seat. And the design is such that you "can" do it one handed. I never do because I'm short & it's a bit too bulky/heavy for me to lift into my trunk while holding my child But it is entirely possible for someone else to do it. I will also add that the ability to reverse the seat is well worth the extra money.

I have had no problems with mine getting stolen, leave it on my bike 24/7 and ride my bike everyday. However if you were worried about it you can take it off with a screwdriver and break it down to store elsewhere. Not sure how many people are walking around with tools to take it off your bike though. Hope this helped.

You can take the wheels off and carry them with you. You need the mesh attached to the board to place it under. You can even fold it up and carry the entire carrier with you on the board.

It is not pre-attached so I think you could leave it off if you didn't care about having the pulse monitors. However the unit folds onto it's wheels to be able to move it easily and the handlebar is the only way then to hold it to roll it.

The handle can be unscrewed off but it's meant to push the child. There are no pedals on the buggy so without the handle, it's not gonna move.

Unfortunately , you cant pull the bike on it wheels when its folded. One of the down sides of getting a cheaper folding bike, though it does come with a bag big enough for it to be carried. If you want to spend a little more I'd say try and get a Brompton, those bikes can be pulled around with it wheels folded.
