Schwinn 13-SC315 Rascal Bike Pet Trailer, For Small and Large Dogs, Lightweight, Tow with Bicycle, Up to 50 lbs. Small, Orange/Grey

We had been looking for a bike trailer so we could take our Italian Greyhound mix (15 lbs) with us on our e-bike excursions. I decided to spend a little more and go with Schwinn, rather than a random "TikTok" brand, and I'm not disappointed that I did. The Trailer breaks down compactly pretty easily for storage and transit. It's easy to setup and connect to your bike. There is just a lone nut that holds it to the axle of your rear wheel, then it just clips in with a pin. Barely adds any time to our setup. We go pretty quick on our e-bikes on crushed limestone trails. The trails can be windy and hilly, but through all the turns and hills, I hardly notice the trailer is back there. The dog is happily just looking around, soaking up the breeze and scents, waiting for our lunch/refreshment stop. We like the tall, bright orange flag too. Now my wife can easily find me on wooded, winding trails, because she can see the flag flapping in the breeze. We love that our pup can now enjoy us on our empty-nesting e-bike adventures.

I bought one of these to take several of my pets on rides with me. The trailer assembled quickly and easily, and getting the coupler mounted on the bicycle was simple as well. Once it's all together, it's very solidly constructed and the connection to the bike is top notch. All of the hardware included is good quality...and the trailer itself is good quality. The stitching and zippers on the material all seem well made, and I have no fear of it ripping or the pets managing to pull open one of the zippers on their own. So far I've taken it for several rides with my two dogs, a 10 pound chihuahua and a 12 pound muttly chihuahua. They seem to like it, and it seems to keep them comfortable. They both just sat in the trailer and enjoyed the scenery!!! I have plans to take one of my cats...one that is a bit more rambunctious...out in the trailer to see if it can stimulate his energy a bit and tucker him out at home!!! One thing to note...when pulling the trailer and any animals in it, it's going to change the workout you normally get while riding, simply because of the fact that you're now hauling around 25 pounds of trailer and however many pounds of animals...in my case, it was like strapping 50 pounds of extra weight to the back of the bike. Sure, it's on wheels, but at the end of the ride I could definitely feel that it had taken more of a toll on my legs than when I ride that route without the trailer mounted. Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase. It will allow me to take the dogs on rides, and hopefully allow my wife and I to take them to enjoy the bike path and days out in the park with us.

When my wife and I decided to retire our child trailer after more than twenty years of service we found the offerings slim for a dedicated dog trailer for our 10 lbs bichion "peaches". Despite the brand name and great price, the schwinn rascal pet trailer seemed low on features, heavy in weight, and cheaply made judging by the specs. We purchased it because there weren't alot of other options, and after using it for three months i can say I'm glad we did. The build quality is good and it cleans up well. The construction is simple with easy put up and take down and it stores well. I like to keep the wheels on for maximum ease of use (see photo). Our dog seems comfortable or as much as she can be for being in a confined space. The rascal has plenty of room for lunch bags, beach towels or other small items. Unless your focused on time trials, the added weight is no big deal. Most importantly the wow factor is not lost. You know, watching the delighted anb bewildered expressions of other riders realizing you've got your dog along for the ride. Only a small subset of dedicated riders, dog owners and excentrics know what I'm talking about here. Cons include already showing some signs of whear and a low profile which makes it difficult to look back while riding to check on your dog. Would also have liked to see a screen window in the back of the trailer so that peaches can see my wife riding behind. All in all an excellent price and product. Hope you found this review useful. Please note peaches not pictured to protect her privacy and anonymity.

Working great so far! Bought a little crate pad to provide some cushion for my 2 mini schnauzers and they seem to enjoy going on their rides with mom. Set up out the box was easy, took all of about 5 minutes. Attached to my Velotric Fold 1 Plus ebike with their attachment just fine. I noticed the trailer doesn’t ride directly behind me, but is actually a little more on my left - I assume because of the e-bike attachment putting that connection a little further out. 🤷‍♀️ It rides pretty smooth, but still need to be mindful of bumps since there’s no suspension. Don’t forget to put air in the tires!

The Schwinn Rascal Bike Dog Trailer: Because Apparently I’m a Pedaling Peasant for Our Posh Pups So there I was, living a normal life—bike rides, fresh air, a vague sense of personal dignity—when my wife lovingly declared, “The dogs deserve the wind in their fur, too.” And just like that, I became the proud owner (read: reluctant operator) of the Schwinn Rascal Bike Dog Trailer, a chariot of canine luxury I didn’t know I needed until I was 3 miles deep into suburbia, pulling two judgmental dogs who looked like they were waiting on iced lattes. Let’s talk features: • Mesh windows for maximum snout-sniffing airflow. • Safety tether so Sir Barksalot doesn’t go rogue at the sight of a squirrel. • Big ol’ wheels that say, “I’m serious about this lifestyle choice.” It attaches to my bike with ease—which is great, because nothing boosts your street cred like pulling a neon-orange trailer filled with spoiled, fluffy royalty while your neighbors pretend not to laugh. And the best part? While I’m panting and sweating like I’m in a Tour de France fever dream, my dogs are back there lounging like they just ordered charcuterie. One of them literally yawned. But I must admit: they love it. My wife loves it. And honestly… I kinda love it too? I mean, who am I now? A man who packs water bottles for his dogs. A man who Googles “bike trail etiquette with small diva animals.” A man who waves at strangers while his Chihuahuas ride in style like a tiny land yacht captain. Schwinn, you’ve created a monster. A stylish, rolling, tail-wagging monster. 10/10. Would pedal again. Slowly. With treats in my pocket. And what’s left of my pride.

After reading reviews and looking at many pet trailer options I chose the Schwinn. Great choice. The carton arrived undamaged. The product was super easy to assemble and had all the pieces; instructions were easy to follow. The new rubber smell of the interior mat was powerful so that went outside for many days. We didn’t have any fabric issues as some have had. I rather prefer the back entry door being solid fabric and not a screen because I’d rather my dog face forward and not be tempted to scratch at a back mesh screen. This adds a little to to the wind resistance but worth it. I will say it would be nice if the wheels were marked left and right. The tread pattern should face in such a way that if any water is in the road it should dissipate out the side of the tires and not be channeled to the center if put on the wrong side. Speaking of tires - the psi is 35 which is great for minimal rolling resistance but can make for a less than smooth ride at times, even on the best pavement so perhaps it’s better at 30 or maybe even 25 — can’t imagine taking this on a trail. Puppy would hate it. And make sure your trailer is tracking straight forward to promote long tread wear. Have an extra inner tube with you just in case. We slowly acclimated Ozzi to it by leaving it assembled in the living room for a week; put some toys in there; put some treats in there; and soon he’d go in on his own and just hang out. Then we’d get him set up in it with his blanket and small bed and tow him around the house treating along the way. This made his inaugural journey well liked. He was nervous, no doubt. Perhaps he read the reviews of 50 pounders shoe horned into this trailer with not great results. But being 15lbs it fits him perfectly and we’ll be off for many trips to the local donut shop :-). Enjoy and ride safely.

So far I absolutely love this. Took 10 min from unboxing to ready to go. Instructions was not needed, everything made since. My dog freaked out the first ride, but I'm sure he will get use to it .. the Zippers seem a tad cheap but you get what you pay for. The frame seems strong and really steady. Up hill was not a problem, downhill I suggest using both brakes. It does require a tad more stopping power because of the weight.

Great little trailer for my pup to take on bike rides. My dog went inside with ease I love that it comes with a pad for him to lay or sit. Easy to pack away and setup. Great breathability allowing him to see what is going on

Really simple to build and fold away, takes less than a minute. Super easy to use on bike. Really pleased.

Nunca creimos que fuera a estar tan bonito y de tan buena calidad. El remolque lo compramos para nuestro pug que pesa 9 kg y por sus dimensiones y peso, le quedó perfecto y ahora nos acompaña encantado a nuestros paseos en bici. El remolque trae puerta trasera para que aprenda a subirse y bajarse, así como una correa anclada a la estructura para que lo amarres de su pechera y evites el riesgo de que pueda caerse o echarse a correr. También tienes la opción de llevar la ventana cerrada (con un plástico transparente), abierta (con mosquitero, como se ve en el video) o completamente descubierta. El sistema de anclaje le queda a cualquier bicicleta y trae doble seguro en caso de que este llegara a fallar y no se suelte el remolque en el camino. El piso del remolque trae goma gruesa (muy dificil de rasgar) y antiderrapante, pero encima le coloqué una colchoneta para que el princeso vaya más cómodo. Una vez que lo terminas de usar, el remolque se desarma muy fácil y se pliega sin herramientas para que lo puedas almacenar sin ocupar mucho espacio.

Muito bom, fácil de instalar e de boa qualidade, atendeu as expectativas e necessidades.

Perfect for what we were looking for. We have 2 mini schnauzers about 15 lbs each and they both fit in the trailer comfortably, with extra moving around room. Very easy to assemble, took me about 5 minutes to attach the bracket on the bike, and assemble the trailer. Folds down nicely for easy transport, we are campers so this feature is great. I bought an extra bracket so my husband and I both have a bracket on our bikes. Bike stands up nicely with the kick stand down to load and unload the dogs, rides very smooth. I could hardly tell I was pulling anything. I would definitely recommend this trailer.

Más de tres años con él. De calidad. Eficiente para perros pequeños; duda en perros grandes. Compatible con cualquier bicicleta. Se guarda bien.
