IMPORTANT

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO FAMILIARIZE YOURSELF 

WITH YOUR TRAILERCYCLE BY READING THIS MANUAL 

BEFORE USE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT 

YOUR AUTHORIZED BURLEY DEALER.

IMPORTANT

KEEP THIS MANUAL FOR MAINTENANCE, INSTALLATION, USE 

AND SAFETY INFORMATION. USE ONLY THE MOOSE RACK 

FOR TOWING THE PICCOLO OR KAZOO. ALWAYS ENSURE THAT 

BOTH ADULT AND CHILD WEAR HELMETS.

Safety Guidelines

Bicycling with a trailercycle is different from bicycling 
without one. It is essential that you follow all safety guide-
lines, warnings, and instructions. Contact Burley if these 
instructions  
are unclear.

1.  Maintain and inspect your bicycle and trailercycle 

regularly. Follow the instructions in your bicycle owner’s 
manual.

2.  The trailercycle is designed for children ages 4-10 with 

sufficient coordination to pedal and adequate strength to 
hold on to the handlebars tightly. If your child is physically 
or mentally impaired, consult your physician as to 
whether your child can safely ride. Take short rides; stop 
frequently. Instruct your child to remain alert, and to keep 
their feet on pedals and hands on handlebars at all times.

3.  Both riders must wear helmets.
4.  Do not overload the trailercycle. Maximum weight of a 

child riding your trailercycle is 

 

85 lbs./31.73 kg. Lead rider must weigh at least twice 
as much as the child. Never allow a child or adolescent 
to pull your trailercycle. Do not exceed weight limit by 
attaching a trailer, rack, panniers, or other cargo to the 
trailercycle.

5.  Adjust the seat and handlebar to the correct heights. 

Ensure that the minimum insertion mark, or at least 2 
½” (63.5mm), on the seat post remains inside the frame. 
Don’t use a seat post longer than the one supplied, as it 
could result in an unstable bike.

6.  Observe recommended speeds: maximum of 
 

15 mph/24 km/h on smooth, straight roads, and 

 

5 mph/8 km/h or less when turning or on        uneven 
roads. 

7.  Use only the factory-supplied wheel with the tire inflated 

to pressure recommended on the tire side wall. Check 
pressure before each use. Do not use higher-pressure or 
knobby tires. Be sure axle nuts are properly tightened.

8.  Before your passenger gets on and off the trailercycle, 

come to a complete stop, straddle your bicycle and 
hold it securely with the brakes locked and both feet 
on the ground. Never rely on a kickstand to secure the 
trailercycle. Practice with your child in an uncongested 
area. Pulling the trailercycle adds length and weight to 
your load; allow for ample time and distance to stop, start 
and turn.  

9.  Do not use off-road, or at night without front and rear 

lights on both cycles. Avoid sudden swerving, rocks and 
curbs. 

BICYCLING WITH A TRAILERCYCLE, AND BICYCYLING IN 

GENERAL, CAN BE HAZARDOUS. FAILURE TO OBSERVE ANY 

SAFETY GUIDELINES IN THIS MANUAL COULD RESULT IN 

ACCIDENT, SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
