The KaZAM Co-Pilot Enables Dual-Riding on Single-Seater Bikes

The KaZAM Co-Pilot Bike Trailer is a 20-inch wheeled trailer designed to allow young children to join adult cycling outings with a combination of assisted pedaling and towing. It features an adjustable BMX-style stem and handlebar that can be tailored to a child’s height, along with a padded saddle mounted on a lightweight aluminum frame. The trailer’s modular design enables quick attachment and removal, and its frame geometry positions the deck low to the ground to ease loading. Reflective detailing on the wheels and frame enhances visibility during low-light conditions, while sealed bearings and corrosion-resistant paint protect components from weather exposure.

Attachment to the adult bicycle is accomplished via a seatpost clamp that connects to an articulated joint on the trailer arm, allowing the unit to swivel during turns and maintain alignment behind the towing bike. The clamp’s hardware requires periodic torque checks to ensure secure mounting, and the stem’s adjustability accommodates a range of seatpost heights and bicycle geometries. Assembly involves basic hand tools and can be completed by one or two adults, with the trailer’s overall construction rated to support typical child weights while minimizing added load on the host bicycle. When not in use, the Co-Pilot’s frame folds compactly for storage or transport, and the stem and handlebar can be collapsed to reduce its footprint further.
