BOB: Bike Conversion?

Mandy747Mandy747

Ideally, I'd like a high quality jogging stroller that also converts to a bike trailer so we can cart LO around with us on our bike rides.  We live in the city, so space saving is key.

I can't seem to find any info on a BOB bike conversion kit.  Any suggestions?

    As far as I have found the conversion doesn't exist on the BOB.

    If you find something let me know, I have talked to the reps at the company, and they don't have any kit or anything.

    We will be buying a Chariot because it has this conversion.  I run and DH is a cyclist, so we figured we'd get more bang for the buck with one item rather than buy an expensive stroller and trailer.  They are pricey and you have to pay more for the conversion kits, but I did see them on sale recently at REI, so keep your eye out for sales.  We're lucky that DH worked in the bike industry for 10+ years and still has a lot of connections that can get one wholesale for us.  Just wanted to mention you can also get a conversion kit that will make it into a regular stroller and even x-country skiing or hiking!
