"We love to get out biking as a family, but sometimes the hills are a little too steep or just too hard for the kids after a long bike ride. The tow rope goes on so easily and just gives the perfect amount of help needed for the kids to get up the hills. Charlene H - Canada
Q: What age is the tow rope suitable for? A: The shotgun tow rope is designed with kids in mind, but it’s suitable for adults too – as it’s rated to 500lb / 225kg. For kids, we’ve found that the tow rope works best once they’re confidently riding a pedal bike themselves, usually this is once they are riding a 16" or 20" wheel bike.
Q: Is the tow rope safe for use on Ebikes? A: We’re aware of many customers using their tow ropes with Ebikes and we haven’t heard of any issue to date. To minimise load on the Ebike motor we recommend the person being towed is also pedalling.
Q: Is the tow rope safe for use on dropper posts? A: The majority of our customers use their tow rope on dropper posts and we aren’t aware of any issues. To minimise wear and tear on your seat post you should remain seated when towing.

A: Our mission is to help raise the next generation of mountain bikers. For us, that means getting more kids (and families) onto the trails. If your kid doesn’t mind riding uphill, and you don’t need a tow rope, then that’s cool with us! But if you’d like to tackle bigger adventures, together or ride further than little legs than handle, then that’s where our tow rope comes in.
A brilliant design, the Kids Ride Shotgun takes all the effort out of longer or steeper climbs for my little one, leaving him with more energy to shed the downhills!
its good, tried to use a normal bungee cord before this but the snapped. This works a dream
