Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Taking it on the road has never been easier thanks to a little help from Schwinn, the original family bike company. The company's speedy, lightweight Trailblazer double bicycle trailer is fast on the setup and easy to hitch, making it a breeze to haul your kids on a ride through the country or a trip to the farmer's market. The Trailblazer is equipped with a lightweight aluminum frame that provides plenty of space for each child, along with fast-rolling 20-inch wheels. The trailer's universal coupler is just as well conceived, with a design that attaches quickly and easily to most bikes. And once you arrive at your destination, you can convert the trailer into a stroller in mere seconds. Other details include a zippered weather shield that provides extra protection in poor weather, a quick-release wheel design for easy storage; and a total capacity of 100 pounds and two children.

Color Name:Red/Gray
The trailer was fairly easy to put together and attach to the bike. I was disappointed to realize that the handlebars and stroller wheel have to be carried separately when using the trailer. I thought they attached then folded out of the way but they don't. The harness system did take a few tries to get adjusted so it would hold my 9 month old son somewhat comfortably. It helps to tighten the front straps under the sling seat but not tighten the back strap as much. The shoulder straps sit kind of high on my son's neck near his ears but not to the point that it seems to bother him. There is no head recess to allow room for my son's helmet when biking. The inside pockets/drink holders are a nice feature for older children. The trailer is easy to pull when I am biking - the extra weight is barely noticeable especially on flat surfaces. I also enjoy inline skating but don't recommend this model for that or jogging. The stroller wheel does not roll very smoothly or as fast as I would like and the assemble rattles a lot when going a good pace. I had to keep lifting the wheel up to enjoy the outing. (I did order the Mark III for skating and it rolls smoothly in the stroller mode but I was disappointed with the quality for the higher price.) The trailblazer is a good trailer for the price if you don't plan to use the stroller feature very often.

Color Name:Red/Gray
We got this as a gift and were super excited to try it out. I decided I should be the one to have the trailer attached to my bike so I was used to it when I took our son alone. I could not believe how light the trailer was even with my almost 2 year old son inside. It was very easy to put together and attach to the bike. I wish the pictures on th instructions would have been a bit clearer. Our son liked the bike trip so much he fell asleep. It took bumps much better than I expected and moved easily. I was so excited that this trailer works as well as it does.

Color Name:Red/Gray|Amazon Verified Purchase
I recently purchased the Schwinn Trailblazer Double as a 2nd trailer to keep at my parents' house. We also own a Chariot double. For the price,the Schwinn gets the job done.
Positives - it folds VERY flat and compactly and is easy to fold (even while holding a squirming 11 month old), it is light, good ventilation, snack pockets, nice storage bin, handle bar can be set for different height parent, snap cover is easy to put on/take off, the front "arm" folds in for a very small "folded footprint"
Negatives - no shocks so is a bumpy ride, the front wheel is not very sturdy (when I ran with it, I tilted the stroller so the wheel was off the ground), small sling-style seat so the kids sit very close together, straps are not very adjustable and can be difficult to clip on/off, cannot be fitted with an infant sling, no sun shade
All-in-all, a great stroller. I would consider this as our only trailer if we didn't already have a Chariot.
