Does the bike trailer fit every bike?

A children's bike trailer, like those from hauck, can be used with most common types of bicycles. Thanks to the universal bike trailer hitch, it can be mounted on city bikes, e-bikes, or mountain bikes. Our children's bike trailers feature a well-thought-out connection system that ensures stability and safety. Many parents wonder if the trailer is suitable for an e-bike or a bike with a quick-release axle. With hauck, this is generally not a problem. It is important to check before first use whether your bike has a compatible rear axle. If you have a particularly sporty bike, it’s worth checking our compatibility overview or purchasing a replacement hitch for the child trailer. Even with wide racks or disc brakes, our bike trailers can be attached without issues. You can quickly and tool-free attach or detach the trailer, making it ideal for everyday use with children. This makes your hauck bike trailer a flexible companion for any trip.

From what age can a child ride in a bike trailer?

In Germany, a children's bike trailer can usually be used once your baby sits safely and securely in the trailer—typically from the 1st month with a suitable insert. With a special baby seat for bike trailers or a baby insert from hauck, it is even possible to use it from birth. Our models, such as the hauck Dryk Duo, are designed to be used very early in your child’s life. Especially in combination with a bike trailer with suspension and breathable materials, your child is well protected on the go. When using a baby trailer, choose only calm routes and ride cautiously. From the sitting age, about 6 months, your child can also sit in the trailer without an insert. A children's bike trailer from 6 months is ideal for everyday use, leisure, and vacations. With a two-child bike trailer, you can safely, comfortably, and securely take both children with you at the same time.

How many children fit in a bike trailer?

Most hauck children's bike trailers are designed for one or two children. A classic two-seater bike trailer accommodates two children up to a maximum weight of about 22 to 30 kg, ideal for siblings or twins. The interior is generously sized, making longer trips comfortable. Hauck offers practical extras such as adjustable seats, 5-point harnesses, and storage space for luggage. Wondering if a baby can also ride? No problem! With a suitable baby insert, you can use the model from birth. Whether taking one child to daycare or two children to the park, the right children's bike trailer ensures that you travel safely, flexibly, and relaxed.

Is a bike trailer safer than a child bike seat?

A modern children's bike trailer offers a very high level of safety. Many parents consciously choose a trailer instead of a child bike seat because it provides better protection thanks to a stable frame construction, low seating position, and rollover bar. In case of a fall, your child remains securely protected inside the enclosed trailer cabin. All hauck bike trailers for children come equipped with a 5-point harness system, reflective elements, and a safety flag. Unlike a child seat where your child sits directly on the bike, a trailer keeps your little one separated from direct impact. Especially on longer rides or uneven terrain, a bike trailer with suspension offers clear advantages in terms of comfort and stability. Visibility in traffic is also improved thanks to reflectors and lighting. When combined with a children's bike helmet and a responsible riding style, a bike trailer is a safe and practical transport solution for toddlers.

Can I also use the bike trailer for jogging or walking?

Yes, a multifunctional children's trailer from hauck is more than just a bike transport solution. With the right accessories such as a jogging wheel and push handle, the trailer can be transformed into a jogging stroller or walking buggy in no time. Many parents use the bike trailer with jogger function to stay active while running or to manage everyday life more flexibly. The conversion requires no tools and takes only seconds, making it ideal for spontaneous trips. Thanks to large air-filled tires and a well-balanced chassis, the children's trailer is also easy and comfortable to push over uneven terrain. With a 2-in-1 bike trailer like the hauck Dryk Duo, you're well equipped for sports, leisure, and travel. Your trailer becomes not only a reliable cycling companion but also a dependable jogging stroller for everyday use.
