Greater flexibility

Flexible conversion from bicycle trailer to jogger

Our Qeridoo bicycle trailers for children are true all-rounders. Thanks to their versatile operating modes they convert into a jogger in just a few simple steps. This flexibility makes them an extremely practical companion for active families and athletes.

Whether on a trip to the park or during a training session – our trailer adapts to your lifestyle and offers you and your family comfort and flexibility. Easy handling and user-friendliness are the top priorities.

Parent tip: The steady motion of jogging has a particularly calming effect on small children and gently rocks your child to sleep. That gives you a bicycle trailer as a stroller, for jogging and cycling all in one.

You can also jog in buggy mode without a conversion kit, but the 14 inch air-filled jogger wheel offers numerous advantages. It turns your child trailer into a versatile jogger in no time, with even more stability, comfort and flexibility.

Tip: Alongside the jogger wheel for one-seaters, the Qeridoo range of course also includes a matching jogger wheel for two-seaters.

Whether one-seater or bicycle trailer for 2 children – the wheel is designed specifically for sporting activities and attaches to the bicycle trailer quickly and without additional tools.

Our bicycle trailers stand out thanks to their high-quality suspension, large air-filled tires and many important safety features. They offer not just a safe and comfortable jogging experience, but also, thanks to their versatile uses, can be used as a practical stroller.

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 durability, even under intensive use. Thanks to its improved suspension performance it delivers a particularly smooth and comfortable ride, even on uneven terrain.

The locked position of the jogger wheel provides increased stability and prevents unwanted changes of direction, which makes jogging more pleasant and safer. This steady ride is especially calming for younger children and ensures that they feel completely at ease in the trailer.

Our bicycle trailers are designed to give both joggers and children a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

The ergonomic, height-adjustable handlebar on our trailers adjusts effortlessly to the user's height. This allows a comfortable body position and helps prevent back pain. That is especially important on longer jogging routes.

Tip: The first time you go jogging with a trailer, start slowly to get used to the handling and the extra weight. Beginners should stick to level terrain at first.

Important: When jogging with the bicycle trailer, it is important that your child feels comfortable and stays occupied in the trailer. Bring along toys, a bottle and snacks so your child has plenty to do while you jog.

Safety and comfort for your child while jogging

Our Qeridoo childrens bicycle trailers are equipped with an adaptive comfort seating system, with integrated back protectors and side impact protection. That way your child sits safely and comfortably, even on bumpy routes. The soft all-round padding and the height-adjustable headrest add further to your child's well-being.

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.
