Choosing a bike trailer for infants can feel overwhelming, especially when safety is your top concern. At Nordic Cab, we’re parents too – and we’ve designed a trailer that grows with your child and your adventures.
When Can You Start Using a Bike Trailer With an Infant?
We recommend using the bike trailer function from around 9 months of age, when your child can sit upright with stable head and neck control. Before that, babies are not developmentally ready for biking, especially on uneven surfaces.
✅ From birth: Use Explorer as a stroller, jogger, hiking trailer, or ski sled, together with an infant insert.
✅ From 9 months: You can start using it safely as a bike trailer.

How to Use the Explorer Safely With an Infant
- Use the flat seat position when transporting infants
- You cans use a baby insert if your child is younger than 9 months
- Start on smooth, low-traffic roads and adjust speed carefully
- Check harness and helmet fit (helmet optional for non-bike use)
- Avoid biking on rough terrain in the beginning
Not Just a Bike Trailer – A Year-Round Family System
From your baby’s first ride to outdoor adventures with two children – the Explorer adapts as your family grows.
It’s designed to comfortably fit 1 or 2 children aged 0 to 7 years, making it a long-term companion through your most active parenting years.
Whether it’s nap time in the park, a forest bike ride, or pulling your toddler through snow-covered trails, Explorer helps get the whole family outside – all year, for many years.
The Most Flexible Bike Trailer Seat on the Market
Unlike other trailers, the Explorer seat can recline completely flat – perfect for naps on the go. This is ideal for babies and toddlers who need sleep during longer outings. The seat hangs freely inside the cabin, reducing bumps and improving comfort.
Built for All Seasons – and All Adventures
With Nordic Cab, you don’t stop when the season changes – or when your needs change. The Explorer is more than just a bike trailer. It’s a complete modular adventure system that transforms easily depending on your activity and the time of year:
- Stroller – With air-filled swivel wheels, ideal for city walks and everyday use
- Jogger – Large fixed front wheel for stable, high-speed runs on mixed terrain
- Ski sled / pulk – With skis and pulling harness for cross-country winter outings
- Hiking trailer – Pull the trailer behind you using a comfortable harness and frame
- Cargo trailer – Remove the seat and frame to turn it into a durable gear hauler
- Dog-pulled trailer – Add a dog harness and pulling bar to let your dog tow the trailer
Whether you’re heading into the mountains, through the snow, across gravel paths or down the sidewalk, the Explorer is designed to adapt. Start with one function or choose a full bundle – and expand as your family, dog, or adventures grow.

Frequently Asked Questions – Bike Trailer for Infants
Is the Nordic Cab Explorer safe for infants?
Yes. The Nordic Cab Explorer is designed with safety as the top priority. It features a 5-point harness, a solid molded base, a roll bar, and soft suspension for a smooth ride. The seat can recline completely flat, making it suitable for younger children, even during nap time.
From what age can I use the Explorer as a bike trailer?
You can start using the Explorer with your baby from approximately 6–9 months, once they can sit with support and wear a harness. For younger infants, we recommend using the baby insert (sold separately) for added support. Always consult your pediatrician before biking with infants.
Can I use the trailer for two children?
Yes. The Nordic Cab Explorer is spacious enough for two children up to about 6–7 years old. You can also use it with one child and still have space for gear, bags, or even a dog, depending on your adventure.
What types of terrain is the Explorer suitable for?
The Explorer is designed for all-terrain use – from urban roads to gravel paths, mountain trails, and even snow. With its large air-filled tires, natural suspension, and winter ski conversion kit, it performs smoothly year-round.
What’s included and can I add features later?
You can choose between different packages – bike trailer only, or combined with stroller, jogger, or ski sled. You can also start with the basics and add functions later as your needs change. All accessories and spare parts are available in our shop.
