Dog Bike Trailer — Petrive ACTIVE ONE (40 kg)
The Petrive ACTIVE ONE is a single-pet dog bike trailer built to carry dogs and cats up to 40 kg, tested to the European EN15918 safety standard and supplied with everything you need to ride on day one. It suits owners of larger or less mobile dogs who want to keep riding without leaving their pet behind.
The ACTIVE ONE runs on 20-inch air-filled rear wheels — the same diameter you find on quality child trailers — which means it absorbs road surface variation rather than transmitting every crack and pothole to your dog. Wheels come off tool-free via Petrive's Click&Ride system, and the drawbar folds away and stows under the chassis, so the whole thing collapses in seconds without needing a single bolt loosened. Strip the wheels and drawbar entirely and the shell functions as a static kennel or transport crate — useful if your dog travels anxiously and benefits from a familiar space.
The Oxford 600D fabric shell sits on a rubber-reinforced waterproof base, so it handles a British drizzle without drama. The frame is powder-coated steel; it is not light at 13 kg unladen, but it is built to stay square under a full 40 kg load. Compatibility is stated for bikes with 26–29-inch wheels. The hitch coupler type is not specified by Petrive — if you ride a thru-axle or non-standard rear end, check with us before ordering.
