Hello! I am trying to find a used bike trailer for a toddler to ride in. We are needing to find one that has suspension, like the Burley d'lite X. I know its a long shot, but does anyone have one for sale? We have a regular bike trailer for him, but the trail is rough and he needs a little better ride. We are trying to save a little money :)
Thank you!

Thule chariot 1 is an awesome trailer. I have been using mine for 4 years now and in all kinds of weather. The suspension is great on it and it’s a single seater so it’s not all big and wide. I have mine set up to pull my sons 16” bicycle behind it so he can ride when he wants and get in the trailer and take a break when he’s tired. I have an awesome video from this weekend of the suspension at work going across the bridge into Jefferson. I had the go pro on his bike being pulled by the trailer so you see it perfect. Not sure how to attach a link or video to this but I’ll try tomorrow. I spent probably $1000 on my trailer with everything but it’s been well worth it. You can find them used for $200-$300 sometimes.

We use a Trailer, it IS rough for them.

Try putting the widest tires on the trailer that will fit and run about 10% less air than the maximum or even less. This also works for bikes.
There have been studies in recent years that suggest this method doesn't really increase rolling resistance.
