Below is an excellent overview video for anyone looking at buying an Adams Trail-a-bike. Demonstrated is a folder compact model, this bicycle trailer is a step up from a rear mounted baby seat which the Adams company also sell. These trailers are ideal when the child is between 3/4 to 8 years old, and they are too small to be riding alongside the adult or parent rider.
The video has some useful tips, e.g., The post seat advice about cutting it lower to get the child seating better and nothing if the child is “rocking” back and forth to ride. The trailer comes with a bicycle flag.
The video also demonstrates hitch installation and setup to hooking up to the adult bicycle. Below you will find a beautiful video that shows from box to setup of the trailer.

CLEANING BICYCLE PARTS
We wrote this article about cleaning bike parts. Not a task most people like such as cleaning oily bicycle chains but there is an easier way using ultrasonic cleaners to reduce the amount of elbow grease required. Ultrasonic cleaners are suitable not just for bicycle chains but any metal bike parts and other sporting and hobby equipment. Shooters use them to clean brass casings and even jewelry cleaning etc. Most of the time the ultrasonic cleaners require only water to be placed in the cleaning bay but at times you can add an ultrasonic cleaner solution to help. All of these products are available on Amazon and make light work of cleaning your bicycle parts. You can read more of our article on ultrasonic cleaners for bike parts.
There are many types and brands of ultrasonic cleaners on the market, in fact, Amazon is flooded with a range for sale, so our most popular sellers are the Kendal brand of ultrasonic cleaners. There are differences in the units and at a basic level, the units use cold water and then higher priced models use heated water. You can get an LCD screen and also have a unit come in stainless steel finish like the Kendal unit does. Amazon sells cleaning units for home use as well as some professional grade units for commercial and industrial cleaning.
If you live outside of the United States and want to buy on Amazon, there are some issues. Amazon has a range of sellers who promote their products, and not all of the sellers like to or ship overseas to non-US addresses. So you might see an item for sale whether it be the ultrasonic cleaners we promote on our site or want to buy a part for a bicycle trailer or purchase a bike trailer itself on Amazon. Don’t worry; you can buy on Amazon as a non-US resident (if it says – most os the time its ok and Amazon ship directly overseas) by reading how to do it in our article here. This article is written for buyers in Australia using Amazon, but there are shipping agents online you can check if you’re not located in Australia. Just search Google for, e.g., Mail forwarding services or how to buy on Amazon, non-US address. What happens is you place an order via Amazon and send the goods to the mail forwarding companies US address and, in turn, they on forward to your non-US address. Australians use this service and even their leading postal company “Austpost” offer a service to ship goods from the US.
