Works great

Well this does just what it is suposed to do. What more can you say really. It installs easy, works great, and does the job. I just wish it was a bit cheaper. $5 is a much more reasonable price.

Coupler Attachment - InStep- extra

On: 2009-12-09

I purchased this coupler for my other bike. Its good to have an extra one just in case we want to attach the trailer to another bike.Its easy to attach and very useful.

Works

This coupler has been incredibly hard to find at a reasonable price. For awhile ebay was the only place to get it and they were $35.

They work as they are supposed to. We bought 2 so we wouldnt have to switch back and forth. One bike has a quick release hub the other is just bolted on and both were easy to install. I had to take my rear rack off, though.

The Coupler Attachment

I really like the coupler that I bought from Amazon. It was the right size and very reasonable price. Now I can take my son for bike rides again (which he loves). He laughs every time we go over any bumps. If you need a new coupler for your trailer, I would suggest going through Amazon first.

It's simple to install and works perfectly

The trailer hitch was very easy to install and took me 90 seconds to attach.
It works great with our InStep Bike Trailer. Now my husband and I can both pull our child depending upon who wins the coin toss!

Exactly as described

This coupler was exactly as it was decribed. Shipping container was sufficient. Installation took less than 10 minutes. Our InStep bike trailer attached to the coupler as expected and works great. Just a thought, I bought 2 of these so I didnt have to switch between my wifes bike and mine.

Second Trailer Hitch

Needed a second hitch for the great trailer. Now with no hassle we can tow the tyke behind mama or papa.

Great coupler but Amazon price is outrageous!

On: 2009-07-30

It is wonderful to have an extra coupler so you can use the trailer with more than one bike. I cant believe the price is over $30.00 at Amazon.com. Even though many dealers are out of stock, their prices are under $10.00 and I found one in stock at another dealer for $17.00 with free shipping. This seems like price gauging to me. So, this is a great product, but buy it somewhere else!!!

TIMELY QUALITY

I RECEIVED THIS PRODUCT TIMELY WHEN NO OTHER DISTRIBUTORS WERE ABLE TO FILL MY ORDER.(INCLUDING THE ONE LISTED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL)

got just what I was after

On: 2009-06-09

We needed a coupler attachment for our bike trailer and went straight to the manufacturer. They (of course) were out so I went to amazon and got exactly what we needed and for a cheaper price. It came to us within a week and works great.

Nifty

On: 2009-06-05

This is a great improvement over the coupler that came with my bike trailer. Thanks for the fast shipping.

Good overall

On: 2009-06-01

Works great, and is easy to remove/reattach the trailer from/to the bike. However, to get it on our bike in the first place, we werent able to keep the kickstand on. Not sure if thats how it is with every bike. I did find it for 12.99 INCLUDING shipping on the instep website, so look there first!

Easy and quick to install

I bought this so we could pull our child trailer with both mine or my wives bike. Takes only a small adjustable wrench to install. The lock pin U-clip is very firm. Best part of this setup is the child trailer will not tip over if you dump your bike.

Finnaly instock

My original coupler was stolen with my bike, it has been difficult to find this product instock anywhere.... And great price in comparison to the manufactures web site.

A must have

On: 2008-10-29

I bought this extra Coupler so both my wife and I could attach our Schwinn Bike Trailer to either bike. As far as Im concerned, this is a must have. The coupler system makes it so easy to hook up a trailer to a bike and based on how much I have already used it I feel confident that it is a high-quality and reliable system.

Don't buy this here.....

We have a bike trailer that uses this and it is great, easy to hook the trailer on and off. We are ordering a second for our other bike. Instep had been out of stock for a while and they have them again. I am glad I never thought to look here because it is $8.99 on the InStep website and for me in Michigan it is only $4 shipping. Thats $12.99 total which is less than the price of the item only here on Amazon. Had I bought this here I would have paid almost $20 for the item plus shipping.
