Flexible conversion from bicycle trailer to jogger

Our Qeridoo bicycle trailers for children are true all-rounders. Thanks to their versatile operating modes, they can be converted to a jogger with just a few hand movements. This flexibility makes them an extremely practical companion for active families and athletes.

Whether on a trip to the park or during athletic training – our trailer adapts to your lifestyle and offers you and your family comfort and flexibility. The easy handling and user-friendliness take center stage.

Parent tip: The steady movement when jogging has a particularly soothing effect on small children and gently rocks your child to sleep. So you have a bicycle trailer as a stroller, for jogging and cycling in one.

Even without a conversion kit you can jog in buggy mode, however the 14 inch air-filled jogger wheel offers numerous advantages. It transforms your child trailer thanks to even more stability, comfort and flexibility in no time into a versatile jogger.

Tip: In addition to the jogger wheel for single-seaters, you'll of course also find a matching jogger wheel for double-seaters in the Qeridoo range.

Whether single-seater or bicycle trailer for 2 children – the wheel is specially designed for sporting activities and can be quickly attached to the bicycle trailer without additional tools.

Important
When jogging too, make sure that your child is always well buckled in and the safety harness fits properly. We also recommend that children in the bicycle trailer always wear a helmet. A helmet offers additional protection and can prevent injuries in case of an accident.

The height-adjustable headrest and the side impact protection secure your child's sensitive head and trunk area. So your child is protected even with fast movements and shocks.

With these safety precautions you can ensure that your child is well protected while jogging and you can focus on a safe and pleasant running experience.

Made from hard-wearing materials, the jogger wheel guarantees stability and longevity, even with intensive use. Through the improved spring performance it offers a particularly smooth and comfortable ride, even on uneven terrain.

The fixed position of the jogger wheel provides increased stability and prevents unwanted changes of direction, which makes jogging more pleasant and safer. This even ride is particularly soothing for smaller children and ensures they feel all-around comfortable in the trailer.

Our bicycle trailers are designed to offer both joggers and children a comfortable and pleasant experience.

The ergonomic, height-adjustable push handle of our trailers can be effortlessly adjusted to the user's body size. So a comfortable body position is enabled and back pain is prevented. This is particularly important on longer jogging routes.

Tip: When jogging with a trailer for the first time, start slowly to get used to the handling and the additional weight. Beginners should initially stay on level terrain.

Important: When jogging with the bicycle trailer it is important that your child feels comfortable in the trailer and is occupied. Give them toys, a bottle and snacks so your child can be entertained while jogging.

Protection from weather: jogging in any weather

Our child trailers ensure comprehensive protection and comfort for your child. Not least thanks to the versatile 3-in-1 canopy that offers protection from insects, rain and sun.

The integrated insect net also ensures excellent ventilation inside the trailer, so it stays pleasantly cool even on warm days. So your child is optimally protected and comfortably accommodated in any weather.

Tip: With the matching accessories you can adapt and expand your trailer individually to your needs and the needs of your child. For baby transport, our infant carrier is suitable, with which you can also safely and comfortably jog with your newborn from the 4th week of life in the trailer . For toddlers up to 13 kilograms, our hammock is recommended.

For child transport, safety comes first. This applies particularly when jogging with a bicycle trailer, to minimize the risk of injuries and accidents. We have integrated numerous safety features to ensure the protection and stability of your child.

The low center of gravity of Qeridoo bicycle trailers ensures that they rarely tip in a collision. This construction offers improved stability, which is particularly important when you jog with the trailer. So uneven paths and sudden changes of direction are no problem.

For our bicycle trailers we also use innovative and patented head protectors, which in case of a tip-over guarantee a vital safety distance between your child's head and the ground. These special protectors protect your child's sensitive head area and significantly reduce the risk of injury. Unique at Qeridoo!

The easily adjustable 5-point safety harness secures your child to the seat bench and ensures that during the ride they sit well in the trailer. The floating mounting offers an additional spring effect that mitigates the impact of shocks on uneven terrain.

FAQ – Die häufigsten Fragen zum Fahrradanhänger zum Joggen

Ab welchem Alter darf mein Kind im Fahrradanhänger mitgejoggt werden?

Qeridoo empfiehlt für Neugeborene ab der 4. Lebenswoche die passende Babyschale, für Kleinkinder bis 13 kg die Hängematte. Grundsätzlich gilt: Erst wenn ein Kind den Kopf selbst kontrollieren und stabil halten kann, ist das Joggen ohne Babyschale sicher. Viele Kinderärzte empfehlen dafür ein Mindestalter von etwa 6 Monaten. 

Ja, viele Kinderfahrradanhänger lassen sich mit wenigen Handgriffen in einen Jogger umrüsten. Im Buggy-Modus ist Joggen grundsätzlich möglich, jedoch bietet ein zusätzliches Joggerrad deutlich mehr Stabilität, Komfort und Kontrolle – besonders auf unebenem Untergrund oder bei höherem Tempo.

Das Joggerrad ist ein spezielles 14-Zoll-Luftrad, das vorne am Fahrradanhänger befestigt wird und in seiner Position fixiert bleibt. Im Vergleich zum schwenkbaren Buggyrad sorgt es für mehr Stabilität und eine gleichmäßigere Fahrt, was besonders beim Joggen auf Schotter- oder Waldwegen wichtig ist. Es lässt sich schnell und werkzeuglos montieren und ist sowohl für Einsitzer als auch für Zweisitzer erhältlich.

Ja, wenn der Anhänger die richtigen Sicherheitsmerkmale mitbringt. Wichtig sind ein 5-Punkt-Sicherheitsgurt, patentierte Kopfprotektoren für einen Sicherheitsabstand zwischen Kopfbereich und Boden im Falle des Umkippens, ein tiefer Schwerpunkt für hohe Kippstabilität sowie ein Seitenaufprallschutz. Zusätzlich sollte das Kind im Anhänger immer einen Helm tragen und gut angeschnallt sein.

Ja, mit dem richtigen Zubehör. Qeridoo Kinderanhänger verfügen serienmäßig über ein 3-in-1-Verdeck, das Schutz vor Sonne, Regen und Insekten bietet. Das integrierte Insektenschutznetz sorgt zudem für gute Belüftung im Inneren, sodass das Kind auch bei Wärme nicht überhitzt.

Ein ergonomisch höhenverstellbarer Schiebegriff ermöglicht eine natürliche, aufrechte Laufhaltung – unabhängig von der Körpergröße. Das entlastet Rücken, Schultern und Arme, was besonders bei längeren Joggingrunden spürbar ist. Eine falsche Griffhöhe kann dagegen schnell zu Verspannungen oder Rückenschmerzen führen.

Anfänger sollten zunächst auf ebenem Untergrund beginnen, um sich an das Handling und das zusätzliche Gewicht zu gewöhnen. Der Schiebegriff sollte auf die eigene Körpergröße eingestellt sein, um Rückenproblemen vorzubeugen. Das Kind sollte gut angeschnallt und mit Helm sowie Proviant ausgestattet sein. Die Nutzung des im Lieferumfang enthaltenen Joggerbands ist empfehlenswert, um im Ernstfall nicht die Kontrolle über den Anhänger zu verlieren.
