The Bicycle Trailer That Changes with Your Family

Chariot child carriers provide outdoor enthusiasts who are also parents or caregivers with a choice of how to maintain or embark on an active lifestyle, while simultaneously introducing young children to the world around them. Unlike other carriers that assume a want and need for a standard stroller, or a static variation of it, Chariot carriers provide users with a carrier that can be customized at any time to accommodate several popular outdoor related pursuits. In the Cabriolet, this is managed through an unique modular approach to child transportation in which the carrier's bicycle trailer ready, two-wheeled chassis is combined with one of a variety of conversion kits (sold separately). The Cabriolet is designed to carry up to two children, and is compatible with the strolling, jogging and hiking conversion kits available from Chariot by way of the unique VersaWing 2.0 bracket system.

Easy Kit Attachments with the VersaWing Bracket

With the VersaWing 2.0 bracket system, Chariot ensures that the customizable functionality of the Cabriolet child carrier is always fast and uncomplicated for all users, no matter how many conversion kits are swapped in and out. Each Cabriolet carrier contains a set of two VersaWing 2.0 brackets, integrated along the front lower edge of its chassis. Unlike other child carriers that commonly use differing types of anchoring points for accessory mounting, all conversion kits used with the Cabriolet utilize one, or both of the VersaWing structures. This minimizes potential confusion when it comes to connect the kit attachments. Attachments slide horizontally into brackets -- vertically in the case of stroller wheels -- and lock into place with a spring-loaded push button mechanism. As an additional safety measure, a security pin tethered near the end on the bracket slips through the bracket and the accessory to ensure a reliable hold. The top edge of the brackets can even be used to store stroller conversion kit wheels when not in use, ensuring that they are always on hand when needed.

Full-featured Chassis

In addition to the Cabriolet's conversion kit functionality, it is also loaded with features designed for convenience, comfort, and safety. The main passenger cockpit of the carrier ships fully assembled, and folded in a flat position, and accommodates 1-2 children. It contains a padded seat back constructed of wicking mesh fabric, with children secured within the cockpit with a padded five-point harness system. Once inside, children's comfort is ensured by large polyurethane tinted side windows and a bug-proof mesh upper seat for air flow. The carrier also has a 2-in-1, mesh/polyurethane front cover that can be rolled up, and a front sun shade for UV and sun protection on bright days.

To use the carrier, raise both upright rear tube sections of the frame, locking them into place using the auto-lock disc mechanisms integrated into the opposite edges of the frame at the left and right. To compact the chassis the process is simply reversed. The two 20" wheels snap in and out of the chassis' integrated axle with a similar push-button mechanism at the outer center of their hubs. The bicycle trailer drawbar that ships with the unit connects to the Cabriolet at the left VersaWing bracket, secured by a combination of a push-button mechanism and a tethered security pin. At the other end, the drawbar connects to bicycles via an included axle-mount ezHitch that is semi-permanently mounted to the bicycle axle. The ezHitch is compatible with both nut and quick-release bicycle axle configurations. A quick-release skewer is included for users who want/need one. The drawbar has an additional safety strap that connects it to the frame, ensuring a connection to the bicycle in the unlikely event of separation during use. In addition, altering the drawbar's connection to the VersaWing bracket enables the carrier to be used as a pull cart. An optional jogging brake is available for carrier use with the jogger conversion kit.
