Ive got one. (Actually looking at the link - I dont, I just have the one that mounts onto your bike)

Its made my Giant.

Used it a couple of times with my son (3 years old now)

 

Took him to Meerendal the other day and he loved it. He started moaning a bit when I was going faster though as he was getting a bit of a beating on the back of my hardtail.

 

Quite a thing to get used to though. Having all that extra weight does throw off your centre of gravity.

Starting and clipping in also becomes slightly interesting.

 

But otherwise it is pretty cool.

do yourself a favour and get yourself a wee ride. I had the giant one that is at the back and both my son and i hated it. i got the wee ride and he loves it. i can also interact with him alot more.

See them (Trailers and hitcha bikes) all the time here, on and off road. People use them to go shopping, bikahiking, carry the dog or groceries, kids, etc...obvisiouly not meant for serious technical offroad stuff.
