German-engineered family bike trailers

The Qeridoo QUPA 1 is Qeridoo's entry-level single-seater child bike trailer, in Grey.

Modern in look, functional day-to-day, and built around a leaf-spring damping system that keeps the ride settled where lower-priced trailers tend to bounce.

A reinforced aluminium frame, 5-point harness, height-adjustable push handle that doubles as a roll-over bar, and a 3-in-1 cover (insect net, sun shade, rain shield) handle the essentials. It folds compact, converts from trailer to buggy via the quick-change hitch arm, and takes optional jogger, ski or cargo add-ons.

Suitable for one child aged 6 months to 4 years (up to 22 kg, up to 105 cm). Complies with EN 15918:2011+A2:2017 and EN 1888-1:2018+A1:2022.

Pro tip

Set the push handle to your hip height before the first ride, it's easier on your back on longer walks and gives the roll-over bar the geometry it needs in trailer mode. Then fit the pennant flag; UK law expects it in bike mode and it's the first thing drivers pick up.
