About this deal

Even over slightly rougher terrain I was confident to ride much faster than I would with the tagalong. Leafing through the manual it is apparent that setting up the FollowMe is not for the faint-hearted, with the setup being quite an involved process. Other than that, you want to make sure that your kid’s bike is equipped with the average standard down tube. What’s In The Box?

That’s true! But they are also really dangerous and cannot compete with the stability and rigidity that a FollowMe tandem provides. Install it and also attach the included strap for storing the folded FollowMe to your saddle. Parent’s bike with completed FollowMe installation… Step 2: Prepare Your Kid’s Bike Yes! When your kid gets active and starts moving on his bike or help you by pedaling together with you, you may notice a bit of that movement interfering with your riding, but for me, it never was a problem. Just make sure you communicate well and tell your kid when to move and when to stop. Cycle individually, or be towned is the FollowMe motto. With the Follow Me Tandem Coupling Complete Set, you have the possibility of both safely towing your child through road traffic, or letting it cycle individually away from dangerous traffic. When you don’t have a bike attached, the FollowMe folds up tightly behind the rear wheel of your bike, and is kept off the ground by a hanging strap that loops over the seat rails and uses a carabiner to securely attach the FollowMe.Secondly, there is a little strap and spring hook included that you may want to run through your saddle. It allows you to securely store your folded FollowMe frame when your kid wants to ride her bike by herself. FollowMe Saddle Strap for storing the folded FollowMe… Component #3: “Kid’s Bike”-Kit A tow rope system, like the TowWhee or TraxMTB, is an alternative to a trailer-cycle that I often recommend. Compared to the FollowMe tandem, a tow rope offers a lot more ease of use and flexibility. They weigh virtually nothing, require little or no installation, can be swapped between parents and kids, and can be used for off-road riding. Riding a tandem like this creates tons of lateral forces and moments on each component involved, and the “bulkiness” of the design allows for a very rigid connection between the two bikes. The FollowMe certainly is the safest tandem adapter that I could find on the market. And I mean that by looking at safety from two perspectives: Safety From A Technical Perspective I have seen people riding with tow bars where the parent’s bike would tilt to the left and the kid’s bike tilt to the right at the same time! That is really dangerous.

Royal Mail 24 or DPD. Royal Mail have indicated that the last day for Royal Mail 24 should be the 16th, but We fully assemble your bike before delivery as though you were going to ride it away from the shop. To get it T loved being able to pedal – he’s used to sitting in a front or rear seat, so I was impressed to see that he was pedalling all the time.

Constructed from steel and weighing 4kg (or four bags of sugar if you like), the FollowMe Tandem has a substantial feel to it, with powder coating and chrome plated steel very much on show. It will probably take you between 1 and 2 hours. Depending on your skills and experience with bike repair and maintenance, though, your mileage may vary. Installation FAQ

The last thing I should note is that the FollowMe Tandem is well built. The frame is made of Chromoly steel which is both lightweight and durable. You should be able to use the bike with multiple children, and then still sell it on Craiglist (or similar) for a decent price).The initial surprise at the price tag has been replaced with a realisation that what we have here is not your cheap and cheerful attachment to wobble down to the shops, but a much more precise instrument suitable for those little jaunts but also capable of more demanding and exciting trips – the Coast to Coast, Land’s End to John O’ Groats.

FollowMe Tandem Review - Rascal Rides

Die Idee ist gut. Das Material schwer, wie ein Damenrad von 1960, der Preis übertrieben und Schäden an den Rädern müssen in Kauf genommen werden. The hill was challenging, but that is part due to my current level of fitness. I did make it to the top, and there was no adverse effect when I stood up on the pedals towards the top of the slope. Aside from the tow ropes we already mentioned, the only other real competitor to the FollowMe Tandem is the TrailGator*. The TrailGator is a tow bar that works in much the same way.

And almost every time I see someone smile and say something like: “That’s amazing! I want that too!!!” or “Did you see that? If we were to buy that, we could finally go mountain biking as a family!” or something along those lines…
