So a single rider actually has more room to spread out in a single trailer than they do in a double. Where you can tell the Burley Bee really shines when compared to the cheaper “budget” trailers is the fabric cover (which is 600D polyester). Additionally, because the seat essentially sits directly on the bottom of the trailer, those sagging bums actually sag beneath the chassis of the trailer. While the frame was a challenge for me, the wheels–like all the Burley trailers–were really to take on and off. The Allen S2 trailer has a seat similar to Burley’s but also has a thick layer of breathable padding.

The single Bee will never really get “snug” because a child is centered in the middle of the trailer and has sufficient room on either side as they grow. It has a durable water-resistant cover which has been built around a strong and lightweight internal aluminium roll cage, providing great protection in case of any accident. As you can see in the image below, our 18-month-old (verrrry tall) toddler’s head doesn’t even reach the mesh pocket on the Instep, rendering it effectively useless.

Your toddlers are going to have to be cool with snuggling up to their siblings, and probably getting a little tight and smooshed as they grow older. As of January 2021, the Burley Bee is also offered as a single trailer, replacing the former Burley Minnow. Keep in mind that Burley, like all trailer companies, offers better comfort and more features as you upgrade to a higher model. tires, in general, are a disadvantage because safety precautions recommend a maximum of just 10 MPH.

The Bee bike trailer for kids enables family adventures on a budget without sacrificing safety and durability. If, on the other hand, you’re simply doing the occasional weekend bike ride, the Burley Bee should be find for your needs. Budget Trailers: The Bee’s wheels and tires are seemingly identical to the Allen S2’s, with the exception of the quick release mechanism. If you decide to purchase the bike, the balance you owe will be based on a percentage of how much the bike was worth at the time you took out the Cycle To Work scheme.

If you don’t want to spend a fortune on a bicycle trailer for hauling your kids, but you do want to get one that’s high-quality, durable, and easy to tow, then the Burley Bee is the trailer that you want. If you plan to ride on dirt roads or on snowy roads, you can also upgrade the wheels with Burley’s plus-tire kit. All that other stuff can add a lot of expense to a trailer, and if you already have a stroller, jogger, etc can be total overkill.After over 7 years and testing over hundreds of bike products, her expertise has led her to collaborate and consult with some of the most respected kid's bike product brands in the industry, including Guardian Bikes, Retrospec, Thousand, Kids Ride Shotgun, and Prevelo.
