Our Review of the InSTEP Take 2 bike trailer
New from InSTEP for 2007: the InSTEP Take 2 is now available in New Colors.
The InSTEP Take 2 is the most affordable child's bike trailer in the InSTEP lineup. The low price reflects the limited number of frills and special features, but not the overall quality. The Take 2 is just a stripped down bicycle trailer that will roll smoothly on a smooth road, but may not hold up so well under rugged conditions.
With the Take 2, you get an easy-to-fold bike trailer that requires no tools to assemble other than a wrench to attach the coupler plate to your bicycle. After that, attaching the Take 2 to your bicycle is a one step, tools free process. The cab of the Take 2 holds two children totaling 100 pounds, and comes with dual 5-point safety harnesses. The 16" wheels of the Take 2 are "mags" (made from a polycarbonate plastic) so they're lighter than usual, and rust will never be a concern, but they wear over time. The powder coated steel frame is also rustproof in non-seaside conditions, and a waterproof canopy and retractable rain shield help shield your load from the elements.
Bottom Line: The InSTEP Take 2 bike trailer is made for roads and sidewalks, not so hot on the trails. If you're looking for a bicycle trailer that can easily handle unpaved trails or tons of potholes, consider a model like the Schwinn Mark II, a Burley trailer, or a Chariot convertible bike trailer with larger wheels.
