Is there any reason I can't hook up a Rothan balance bike to a tag along. Has anyone tried it and did it work out ok?
Cheers for any help.

I don't know? To be honest I'm asking on behalf of my sister. I can't quite visualise how it would work either.

If you like, you can tell her that a stranger on the internet thinks it's a stupid idea. 🙂

I'm not sure he'd be able to pull you very far, tbh.

Trailgater tag alongs need quite a bit of headtube to attach the mount to. It's only just possible with the Cnoc 14,I'm not sure I could do it on Jr's Rohan. And you need to put the seat right up so they don't drag their feet 😉

Islabike ought to look at making a Trailgater headtube mount or develop their own tag along system and welded headtube mounts for their Cnoc range

My solution to the problem...

I managed a full 18 miles like that, it was only about 5 miles from hom I realised that the balance bike was pressing on the brakes, resistance training 😀

Scaled, did the kid not block your view?
