Editorial Review

File this under "why didn't I think of that." This high-volumepump, designed to inflate any raft you happen upon, forces air both onthe upstroke and the down so you actually get your pumping done in halfthe time. Not only that, just switch the hose connection and it can beused to deflate as well. It comes with three different nozzleattachments so it will fit most valves as well as product informationon the side of the box in 12 languages. It's not often the word "cool"comes to mind when describing a pump, but this one fits the bill. -- John Moe ... Read more

what are you pumping up?
this pump inflates our toys and balls well.however, remember that you will need a different pump for a bicycle.keeping that in mind, no complaints.unfortunately, there isn't a pump out there that i know of that can pump everything....

This is not a toy, but a great tool.
I just got this pump a couple of weeks ago, and it has performed great! It inflates my Coleman kayak in less than 10 minutes without straining (blowing it up without it took over 1/2 hour and feeling like I was going to throw up). It has a very simple mechanism that disassembles easily for educational or repair purposes. A big advantage is that it can be used to suck the air out of things just by switching the hose to the other end,which is great for collapsing the kayak into the smallest bundle.

Double Duty Pump, More than one use!
This pump will pump you up! It works beautifully at inflating not only your pool, toys, and balls- but your muscles as well!! It is definitely faster than a single mini pump! If you plan on inflating something large with it- I would say you will either need to tag team someone or be in really good shape. I inflated and Intex pool with it, and by the next day my arms and abs felt it. Love the added extra bo nus of a workout! But for real, it is a great product and came with 3 different filling 'needles' perfect for anything from pools to playgroud balls.

a good pump
this pump works well. you get inflation with both the up and down motion. it also has three tips to place on the tube, so it can inflate different sized openings.

by the way, if you are inflating a large item, it provides a pretty good workout on your arms and legs!!

Quick N EZ - Best Buy
I am an avid cyclist who needed to maximize my time in the saddle by including my son on my rides. I searched all the brands from Wike on down to the Schwinn's and Insteps. I am a big believer in the right equipment for the right job.

Value:
This trailer although it may not last forever, it should last a long time and is well worth the money spent; $79 at Target. Especially compared to trailers at $300 and up. Bottom line is how much do you bike, and how frequently will you use the trailer?

Durability:
I used it for the second half of last season (2004) and it still looks new and has little wear. I put approximately 1000 miles on it so far. On days where my son is not with me I load it up with approx. 65lbs of weight (50lb bag of charcoal and a case of Poland Spring water)and use it as a trainer.This weight approximates two small children and it holds up just fine.

Fun Factor;
My son loves going out on rides with me. It has a small pouch/cup holder sewn on each side of the interior, great for a sippy cup and a bag of snacks. It also has a trunk of sorts in the back. A flap that has snaps all around the perimeter of the rear, big enough to put an extra change of clothes and picnic things, or sand toys if you are visiting a playground on your journey.

Safety;
It comes with a basic small reflector on the bottom left of the rear. My opinion is this is not visible enough, get yourself a blinking reflector type light, approx. $10-15 in any bike shop.Mounting it may be a bit tricky, I cut the fabric at the bottom and clamped it on to the frame.It also comes with that neon orange flag, which can be spotted a mile away. And the base colors of blue and yellow stand out pretty good too. The harness,/hinge is a spring (with a safety cable through the center of the spring) that flexes, if you lay the bike down the trailer stays upright. The spring also flexes when you are riding to absorb some of the shifting of weight when your little guys move around back there, making it more comfortable that solid connections.


Pros:
1) Price, $79, you can't beat the price/value anywhere.
2) Quite, I'm used to a bike that makes no noise, and this did not let me down.
3) Bright colored fabric, help you to be seen, along with the neon orange flag.
4) Your own personal cheering team to "Go faster Daddy", and you really can't beat that!

Cons:
1) Floor is made from same fabric as the main compartment, this might be the first failure in the unit as my son gets bigger and heavier. Some more expensive models use a plastic tray as a base.
2) Needs a better light in the rear.
3) Once you get your child one of these , you will not be able to go for a solo ride anymore without dealing with tears and pleads to go "ridin" too.


One very important recommendation, after you install your hardware and hook up the trailer, do yourself and your child a favor and put something heavier than your child in the back. Then ride it for a good long ride. Do a few panic stops, brake on corners, get used to the weight back there, it is very different than what you are used to without it. Don't learn while your little Man or Lady is back there.

Be safe and ride till your legs fall off.

Family outings are a breeze!
We live in an area where we can bike to pretty much everyting, and we were a little concerned about using a traditional child "seat" on our bikes. This trailer has turned out to be a fantastic addition, well worth the money. We have had our son in it since he was 7 1/2 months old (he is now 18 mos) and we have used it to bike to breakfast, to the store, etc. There is plenty of storage room in the back,and the shield is great for misty/windy days. I wouldn't recommend using it with infants unable to hold themselves up well, as the harness is not that strong, but once they can sit up without support the trailer is great! We have no worries about our son toppling out in case we were to fall (which has happened, and the trailer stays upright), either. Enjoy it!

Excellent Buy!
My dh and I have been researching the different types and brands of infant/toddler bike trailers out there for several months. All along I kept looking at this Instep Quick 'n EZ trailer and thinking it was the best out there. Not only did I find it to constantly receive high marks on quality, but I also found it to be quite inexpensive. Not cheap and shotty, just not nearly as expensive as some of the other makes and models. After all our research, we decided on this trailer, and so my dd received it for her 1st birthday a couple of weeks ago. And let me tell you, we have NOT been disappointed with our choice. The trailer is very well made, extremely easy to put together/take apart, a cinch to attach, and even easier to pull. There is plenty of room in the trailer for us to stash our daughter's bottles, a diaper and wipes (incase she needs a change), and couple of toys for her to play with along the way. The 5pt harness is a breeze to work and leaves no question as to weather baby is in securely or not. This is definately a great trailer to own!! We give it 2 Thumbs Up and 5 stars across the board! :D

Quality and value
Although I didn't find this on sale it is still a good deal for regular price. Set up is an absolute breeze. Even attaching the coupler to my bike, after some muscle from hubby to get the nut off, was simple and quick. I feel very confident of the hitch as I ride and the kids are secure in the harness. It folds easily and the wheels detach simply to fit in the cargo space of our mid-size SUV. I'm a recreational/fitness biker and use this on very nice paved trails not off-road so I can't comment on bumps or dirt.

It gets a 4 rather than a 5 only on some comfort issues. The web straps would be better if padded. I have to watch the crotch strap on my 20 month-old or it can ride up and cut into her leg, particularly if she has a big wet diaper. Same with my 4 year old with the shoulder strap and his neck. I'll figure something out though. Also if it is going to be made to hold up to 100 pounds it really could be just a couple of inches wider to give room to bigger kids. Two kids are sort of smushed. The sling seats also could be made to recline. I had a jogging stoller with that feature. Lastly, since I live in FL, I would prefer a longer hood or some sort of brim for more shade.

Having complained, I WOULD STILL RECOMMEND HIGHLY for quality and value and fun. The kids do enjoy it despite my nit-picking!

Great for the money
My 10 month old son loves this trailer.It is very light and was very easy even for me to put together.The only problem we find is that the rear tire of the bike throws up rocks and dirt through the netting.Gets kinda dirty in there!!Otherwise a great buy though. ... Read more

Great cyclocomputer for a great price.
The Micro Wireless is one of the newest additions to the Cay Eye Companies long line of trusted cyclocomputers.I had a hard time choosing between this and a more expensive model with heart rate and cadence.

I decided to go with this and purchased a separate wrist HR monitor for around 25 bucks.It saved a good deal of money and could be the solution to one of your concerns.

If you are looking for a basic model without wireless: I suggest checking out the "Enduro 8"; it is cheaper and has most of the basic features (without wireless and backlight).

With that said: I really like this model, it's smaller and has more features than the Enduro; wireless and back-light.It was easier to setup and quickly switches between bikes (with the purchase of a second mount/sensor kit.)

I broke the computer mount in a minor training collision and Cay Eye sent me a replacement mount for free.I suggest you "defiantly get a cat eye", especially at this price; they have great customer service and make an excellent wireless computer.

Great bike!
This is a great item, I was more than impressed with it (as was my husband).My (tall) three year old, jumped on and rode with us all over the neighborhood the first day we got it.She really enjoy's it because she can ride with us and feel like such a big girl.Balancing seems to be simple and I hardly know she is behind me.I can feel when she moves around but not enough to throw me off balance.I would recommend this bike to anyone with a young child that likes to ride!

Wee Ride Co-Pilot
What a great idea! This cycle is built well for the money and you can't go wrong. My daughter is 6 years old and learning to ride a bike. This trailer allows her to ride with me on bike paths and in the neighborhood. I use to push her in a jogging stroller till she got to big. This unit allows me to replace jogging with biking and still share the time with her. It is a great way to bond with your child while exercising.
The construction is strong and easy to connect to the pulling bike. Hardware is simple and safe. Bike has a nice attractive paint scheme. There are no brakes on the trailer which after riding with it seems like a good idea. Riding with any thing in tow is a little tricky and you have to pay attention.
I highly recommend the Wee Ride Co-Pilot to anyone. I visited the manufactures web site and recommend reading their description. ... Read more

Easy to install
I recieved this seat this weekend.I was able to install it very quickly last night.I saw some people had some complaints about the holes not being drilled right etc, we had no problems with that at all.The leg guard is a little cheaply made and already tore, but duct tape rescued it.We didn't have time to take the little one for a ride yet but I am looking forward to trying it out tonite!Great seat at a great price so far!

simple and lightweight
My wife and I bought this seat for our 16 month old and are completely satisfied with it for the price. We went right out for a ride and it was very sturdy. I could hardly tell my son was with me. It was a cinch to put together if your the least bit mechanically inclined. I put some extra velcro stips behind the padding to keep it secured. The only piece I thought was really cheap was the plastic guard. When it eventually tears apart I'll invent my own version.

We Love It !!!
We recently purchased this so we can take our 2 year old on family bike rides.It fit on my husbands Mongoose mountian bike perfectly and my son LOVES it.It took about 1/2 hour to install and we could not be happier.We love it.

Nothing to pay money for
I am pretty disappointed with this seat all the way round. I have installed many things and assembled too many to count. This seat by FAR was the biggest pain in the bottom I have ever come across. I'm sure it's great for a bike that is spot on perfect to the one they built this for. Sway from that in the slightest and beware : /

The padding is thin and offers little comfort. The height they list on the box is also misleading. My daughter qualified under the numbers but her feet could go past the safety cover they offer.

It may be an extreme response but I hated this seat so much I'm not even going to try another. I'm going straight to a trailer. Hauling a RV would be less stressful to me than another seat like this .

Be Careful w/ Behind the Seat Carriers
I work at a Bicycle shop and have also spoken w/ pediatricians.Be careful when using any behind the bike carier.Make sure you practice w/ a doll or weights before you ut your child in any carrier that goes behind the seat. They are dangerous and offer no protection to your child if your bike goes down.Look into the trailers for behind your bike for max safety.

Frustrating product....ughhh
I recently bought one of these bottles and cannot "align" the dots to remove the "easy clean" valve.It doesn't seem even theoretically possible.Have they changed the design....I wish I knew.

I tried to go to their website (www.polarbottle.com) for help.The site will not come up for me.It is obviously loaded with flashy, leading-edge, multi-media crap.I have a cheap, low-speed Internet connection which is a little unfriendly to such sites, although I surf the Internet everyday, slowly, but mostly satisfactorily.But a few way-cool companies hire manic, adolescent web designers who are determined to turn every webpage viewing into a light and sound extravaganza...at least for those equipped to access it.They do not seem concerned to make thier "product support" universally available to their customers.Idiots.(And there is no other indication whatsoever on the packaging as to company name, phone number, email, etc.) ...
