    Comments about Chariot Carriers CX 2 Stroller / Trailer Chassis - 2009:

    First let me start by explaining why we chose the CX 2 over the Cougar 2. Here's a list of features the CX 2 includes that the Cougar 2 does not:- Fleece lined interior (not huge, but it's nice)- Deluxe sun shade (much nicer than the Cougar)- Removable side tinted windows (not available on the Cougar)- Zip down front window (not available on the Cougar)- 5 position handle bar (I'm tall and this is a MUST for me)- rear drum brakes (not available on the Cougar)- handle bar lever brake (the add on brake for the cougar doesn't even compare)- handle bar bag includedNormally the CX 2 is $250 more than the Cougar, but REI was having a [$] off sale so the price difference was $200. We thought the extra features and accessories that came with the CX 2 were worth paying an additional $200. We got the burgundy color and it is a nice deep burgundy. It's a very attractive color.We have a 1 1/2 year old boy and when I brought the carrier home from the store he immediately climbed right into it, sat down, and new he wanted to go for a ride. Little kids amaze me! He has always loved going on walks, jogging, and bike ride in this carrier. Our 2nd boy is due next month and soon we'll have 2 little boys that will always want to go on walks/bike rides.The deluxe sun shade has been SOO nice. The summer sun can be searing in Utah, but the darkly tinted sun shade keeps him comfortable. I love how you can just roll up the different cover options and use just one or all of them as the weather requires.The Five Position Handlebars are AWESOME! I'm tall, and the higher grips on the handlebars are the perfect height. My wife is shorter than I am and she prefers the lower grips.If you want the absolute best carrier out there the Chariot CX 2 is the way to go. We recommend it to all our friends.

    Comments about Chariot Carriers CX 2 Stroller / Trailer Chassis - 2009:

    We have a 2007 model with both the jogger and the bike attachments. The caveat for this review is that we bought this primarily as a bike trailer, plus we haven't used another bike trailer, so we have nothing to compare it to. At any rate, here is the criteria that I was shopping for: (1) 2 passenger potential, but if only 1, then, they sit in the middle for stability and best protection. (2) Safe/durable/lightweight construction. (3) Good ventilation w/ sun shade. (4) Good ventilation w/ rain cover.

    Our experiences with this trailer:
    Nice: (1) Setup/storage is quick and simple once you figure the initial setup (i.e. read the manual). (2) Good handling where the trailer is centered behind the bike and doesn't fishtail. (3) Great storage in the trunk and gear pack. (4) Quick/easy/secure configuration of the sunshade or raincover. (5) Baby is super excited whenever he sees the trailer and always attempts to crawl inside before we're ready. (6) Removable and easy wash seatcover.

    Not so nice: (1) Big and not much else fits into the trunk of either our sport wagons (Subaru/Volvo). (2) Reclined seat doesn't work so well with some helmets.

    As that we do have a 2007 model, here is our current condition for the chassis: The various elastic bits that store the sunshade and rain cover are getting tired. The elastic for the main and trunk covers are still as tight as a drum. For the bike attachment: there is an annoying tick somewhere with the left wheel that we still need to track down the source. Jogger attachment: Barely used since we have a Bob stroller and hardly run. Yeah, that was too ambitious on our part.

    Happily, this one fulfills our current and future needs so we don't have to shop for another one. Yay! Happy shopping and hope you find something that you love!
