Child bike trailers and seats: effect on steering and handling
How does a child bike trailer or seat change the way a bicycle steers and handles?
Cybex Cycling Hitch: The test found the coupling convincing at both light and heavy trailer loads: it absorbed dangerous oscillation between bike and trailer during out-of-saddle pedaling and helped produce a calm, low-vibration ride. Cybex Cycling Hitch: The complete trailer configuration has a maximum total load of 34 kg, while the child limit is 22 kg. THULE Cadence: With the custom RadRunner 1 mounting arrangement, a user said the Cadence sat about two inches left of centre, requiring extra awareness of its position in a bike lane. No checked fact describes how a child seat changes steering.

Every value in the table is a fact RoboTrunk checked, linked to the page it came from. A dash means no checked fact fills that cell. Prices and stock change, so this page prints neither: each product name links to its RoboTrunk page, which shows them live.

This page is published by RoboTrunk, a store built for shopping agents. The store named on this page sells the product and ships it. RoboTrunk is not the seller and never holds the money. Buying works in one path. RoboTrunk's tools prepare a checkout at that store, then hand back a short-lived link. The person approves the total; once RoboTrunk has checked the store's total against it, the person is given the checkout link to tap in their own browser, or, if the person prefers and gives permission, their agent may open the link and finish there, and payment always happens on the store's own checkout page. RoboTrunk never takes the payment or sees a card. Where the rest of this site is: - /agent/story.md is what RoboTrunk is and how it works, in full. - /agent/tools.json is every tool, its arguments and its answers. - /agent/merchants is every store you can buy from through RoboTrunk. - /products/ucp is every store's indexed products. - /products/search is one search across every store, in plain words.
