Solution for… towing 3-9 year olds, the bike tow frame is recommended for use in traffic or over distances they would struggle to do themselves.  Great investment for family commuting, riding on bike paths or tour riding – ideal for families that regularly ride.  The low hub to hub connection is incredibly stable & secure.  After initial installation easy to connect and disconnect for independent riding.  Designed to work with a wide range of bikes including E-Bikes.

Features:  Stable, secure & safe.  This hub to hub connector is durable and well designed for years of riding with kids bikes from 12 to 20″.  Get peace of mind from the most well balanced ride for kids – they simply can not lean.  The only towing connection system on the market that can be used in conjunction with a rear mounted child seat for riding with multiple children.  Also compatible with rear carrier rack or rear pannier rack giving you lots of storage options.

Attachment: Axle adaptors are supplied with the Bike Tow Frame – Follow Me Tandem – these are needed for both the adult and child’s bike.  To understand whether these adaptors will work with your bikes please see Will a Bike Tow Frame Fit my bike?

Allows both connected and independent riding - a quick, no tools required system

  1. Erik Mulder (verified owner)

    The FollowMe Tandem is the best co-riding product on the market! We have already enjoyed it when we lived in The Netherlands, happily cycling with it with our 2 oldest kids for years. Now that we have migrated to New Zealand we were looking for a similar solution for our 2 youngest kids and were happy to find the same product available here. It’s just super convenient to be able to hook the child bike on or off, depending on the road safety situation and the tiredness of the child. Makes it possible to do longer bike rides while still including the little one to practice their bike riding. Very stable connection system, happily use it up and down the hill as well. Also the adult part is easy to disconnect when doing some mountain biking on your own. Only thing is that it’s quite expensive, but well worth the money for the best solution with the most freedom.
