Our Review of the Burley d'lite 2008 bike trailer
The undisputed king of the road, the Burley D'Lite remains at the pinnacle of bike trailer engineering. The folks at Burley like to call it "the most sophisticated child-carrying trailer ever made" and we whole-heartedly agree. This one or two-passenger convertible bike trailer is the best of the best, and year after year, the D'Lite just gets better.
This year's D'Lite features a new suspension system for a smoother ride and a seat with a deeper recline. Burley also added wheel guards, an improved cargo storage area, padded shoulder harnesses, and a deeper helmet pocket for your children's comfort. As we said, bike trailers by Burley just keeping getting better.
BENEFITS for MOM & DAD
If you are an enthusiastic cyclist who enjoys exercising with your kids, bikes them to school, or loves cruising around town with the family - the Burley D'Lite really is the bike trailer for you. The Burley D'Lite offers exercise and mobility in a high quality carrier that can take you anywhere. It easily converts to a stroller, jogging stroller, or skiing trailer to adjust to changes in the climate or your exercise routine. No matter how you use it, your children are cruising in a trailer engineered to provide the most comfortable ride possible.
- Walk 'n Roller Kit – converts your D'Lite to a swivel wheel walking stroller
- Jogging Stroller Kit – with 16" fixed front wheel and hand brake
- We! Ski Kit - puts your D'Lite on skis for cross country travel and snow shoeing
- Trailer Storage Cover – for off-season storage of your D'Lite
Convenience features
The Burley D'Lite offers a number of features to make it a pleasure for any adult to use. When up and running, the D'Lite is now equipped with wheel guards to keep the mess to a minimum, a bigger-than-before rear storage area (with a bottle holder for your use while jogging or strolling), and a fast action folding system for quick and easy storage. In addition, the D'Lite bike trailer has a specially designed hitch for smooth tracking and easy take offs, and the entire trailer drains for easy clean ups.
The D'Lite bicycle trailer from Burley comes ready to ride after just a few minutes of assembly time.

BENEFITS for LITTLE ONES
For one or two children, the Burley D'Lite offers a ride that is the absolute best in comfort and stability. As mom or dad pedals away, your children will be cool and content in the "ultra-padded" reclining seats and 5-point harnesses. The dual seat area is like two mini-thrones, allowing your children to ride suspended well above the axles on thick padded seats. Very safe and completely comfortable, it's a sure bet your children will be all-too excited to hop into the Burley D'Lite for a smooth and exhilarating cruise on the road or trails.
Comfort
In addition to the deluxe padding of the suspended seat, the dual 5-point shoulder harnesses are just as comfy. Burley improved the helmet pockets so that the kids can be extra safe without kinked necks, and the seat reclines deeper than ever before. The tinted windows with UV protection, adjustable sun screen, and included 2-in-1™ all-weather cover with waterproof zippers team up to offer optimum protection from the elements.
The 600 denier nylon fabric of the Burley D'Lite is drum tight over the frame and water repellent.

COMPARISON
The Burley D'Lite is arguably the best bike trailer on the market today, and just keeps getting better. The price tag may be high, but the product is of incomparable quality - and backed by a limited lifetime warranty. The smooth ride and superior comfort for your child is unmatched by any other trailer we sell.
While we consider the D'Lite to be a convertible bike trailer of the highest quality, parents with diverse athletic interests in search of a trailer with multiple uses should also check out Chariot convertible bike trailers - Burley's closest competitor. Chariot trailers are just as flexible, a bit more expensive, and equipped with options that even the D'Lite doesn't boast.
