Product Information

We fully assemble your bike before delivery as though you were going to ride it away from the shop. To get it My husband cruised into one of the (very short) dips thinking they’d be okay, but his body weight pulled our son forward and caused him to crash. He got drug under teh bike for a few seconds before my husband stopped. We’ve used a tow rope for years (and had learned our lesson about downhill use), but still tried with the KRS rope recently. Oops! Also – I say I tried these things on my bike, but what I mean is I tried them on my ancient alloy hardtail because there was no way I was clamping anything that turned his weight into a damaging lever to my carbon framed, full suspension trail bike, for fear of damaging it. So I couldn’t ride the bike I wanted to on the terrain I wanted to, and decided the whole thing was a waste of time. My son is now old enough to come riding with me (with a bit of encouragement/a tow up the hill, more on that to follow) so we can finally enjoy this together, but what about his little sister?

First an admission – I love riding my mountain bike and want to share this passion with my kids as much as possible, so we tried all sorts of ride-along seats with my son when he was little. They were a huge compromise at best, and absolute rubbish at worst.screen. Unless stated otherwise, bikes also do not qualify for free postage. Please see below for details on Our tow rope features a unique embedded elastic core, making it stronger than other tow ropes. From balance bikes to big bikes

For kids who are old enough to ride their own bike, our favorite solution is a tow rope. It helps you pull kids up hills that they may not be able to climb on their own.We got on with the Shotgun seat from the very first ride – there was no learning curve like with other ride-alongs I’ve tried because my toddler’s weight was balanced right in the centre of my bike and I was completely aware of how much she was getting bounced around or if she was having fun or not. I also think being able to see where she is going helps her get ready for features like corners or small drops and the small set of passenger handlebars makes her feel like she’s part of the process. She love it – my bike is now her primary choice of transport because “Daddy goes fast”, which in fairness, I do, largely because I’m so confident in her ability to stay on the Shotgun seat. Our tow rope’s gentle stretch is designed to give a smooth towing experience, without any sudden jolts. Multi-strand embedded elastic core For small items we use Royal Mail's 48 service which has a delivery time of typically 2-3 days from dispatch; We appreciate that the caribiner/paracord combo comes with the KRS. Tow Whee offers a similar attachment, but is an add-on feature. For pre-Christmas we now strongly recommend you upgrade from our standard post (Royal Mail 48) to either

or awkward items (for example shoes and helmets) which will be calculated automatically at the basket Which brings us to our next point….. Use The Kids Ride Shotgun Tow Rope For Flat Or Uphill Use Only I can be pretty brief in this section – the tow rope I whole-heartedly recommended, as it means you can take older kids on longer rides with steeper hills and let them enjoy the descent without blowing themselves up on the climb. It’s a bit more effort from you of course, but not as much as you’d imagine, and besides it’s good training for your legs. Our last day for dispatch is Thursday the 22nd of December. We use a next day/express courier for bikes, such

The other bonus is that when you get to the top of the climb, you can unhook and let your child rip the downhill–the fun part! Designed For Mountain Biking But Works Well On The Road As Well I’m such a fan of tow ropes for biking with kids, I’m convinced every single family should have one. In fact, in 8+ years of biking with our son, we’ve used a tow rope more than any other biking accessory–more than any trailer, bike seat, trailer-bike, etc. even that is not guaranteed. To give the best chance of pre-Christmas delivery, we recommend selecting the arrange delivery for another day or collect your goods from your local depot (a photo ID with proof of Even on flat terrain, you can cover a lot more distance a lot faster with the Kids Ride Shotgun tow rope than you would be able to with your child unassisted. In fact, it’s rarely my son who asks to hook up first, it’s usually me. I know that we can ride a decent clip if we’re hooked up.
