Our Review of the Burley Solo bike trailer
The Burley Solo is the single passenger version of the Burley D'Lite, equipped with all the same comfort and convenience enhancements as the D'lite, but in a smaller version that only has room for one passenger. The sleek-looking Burley Solo bicycle trailer offers supreme performance and luxury in one high quality, single-passenger bike trailer / jogging stroller combo with a 75 lbs max weight capacity.
BENEFITS for MOM & DAD
Compared to the Burley D'Lite bike trailer, the Burley Solo comes with 16" alloy rimmed wheels instead of the D'Lite's 20" wheels, and benefits from the new and improved Burley frame design by gaining an extra 1.5" of headroom. Parents with a love for cycling will certainly enjoy the Solo, but it's convertibility makes it even more useful to the fitness minded, as the Solo converts to serve other purposes with these handy conversion kits:
- Walk 'n Roller Kit – converts your Burley Solo to a swivel wheel walking stroller
- Jogging Stroller Kit – with 16" fixed front wheel and hand brake
- We! Ski Kit - puts your Solo on skis for cross country travel and snow shoeing
- Trailer Storage Cover – for off-season storage of your Solo trailer
Convenience features
The high-quality Burley Solo convertible carrier is only 25" wide. When used as a stroller or jogger, it fits easily through interior doors. Thanks to its relatively low weight and well-engineered trailer hitch, the Solo comes along almost effortlessly while in trailer mode. The new wheel guards and skip pad along the frame bottom to keep the trailer from getting too muddy or marked up.
This year's Solo comes with a bigger-than-before rear storage pocket (with a bottle slot for use while strolling) that allows you to bring supplies along for the ride. The padded, adjustable handlebar is ideal for strolling, and the fast action folding system makes storage a snap. The Burley Solo comes ready to ride after just a few minutes of assembly.
BENEFITS for LITTLE ONES
Your child of up to 75 lbs. will ride in absolute comfort as mom or dad pedals away, kept cool by the ventilated seating area, and riding in style in the ultra-padded reclining seat and harness. As single bike trailers go, there really isn't a model out there that's more comfortable for your child. It's a sure bet your son or daughter will be enthusiastic about hopping into the Burley Solo for an exhilarating cruise on the road or trails.
Comfort
Not only is the seat of the Solo supremely comfortable, its 5-point shoulder harness is thickly padded as well. Burley also extended the helmet pocket so to prevent kinked necks, and increased the seat recline to its furthest yet. In addition, 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 Solo is drum tight over the frame and water repellent.

COMPARISON
One passenger or two? If you have more than one child, or plan to have another down the road, it's worth spending the extra money to get a double bike trailer / stroller combo like the Burley D'Lite. All two-passenger Burley trailers work with just one rider as well, leaving the other seat available for more of your stuff. If you only have one child of stroller / trailer age, the Solo is a great buy. It has a very low profile, and the same outstanding qualities and durability of other Burley trailers, but it folds and stows to an easy to manage 32.5" x 25" x 16".
