Titanker Upgraded Bike Trailer Attachment Bike Trailer Coupler for Instep & Schwinn Bike Trailers

I have an older schwinn trailer that was given to me without the coupler and this one fits perfectly, i just went on a ride with my two kids in it, 8km in 35 mins, works as a charm!

We received an InStep bike trailer from my sister, but unfortunately it was missing the hitch coupler needed to attach it to the bike. After some research, I purchased the Titanker Upgraded Bike Trailer Hitch, and it turned out to be exactly what we needed. Installation was quick and straightforward. The included design fit our trailer perfectly without any modifications, and the instructions made the process simple. Within a few minutes, we had the trailer connected and ready to go. The hitch feels solid and well-made, with sturdy metal construction that inspires confidence when towing a child trailer. The product is marketed as compatible with Schwinn, InStep, and Burley trailers, and it matched our InStep trailer exactly as advertised. What impressed me most was how securely everything fit together. There was no excessive play or looseness once installed, and the connection felt safe and reliable during rides. This hitch saved us from having to hunt down an expensive OEM replacement part and brought an otherwise unusable trailer back into service. If you’ve purchased a used trailer that is missing the original hitch, or simply need a replacement coupler, this is an excellent solution. It fits as advertised, installs easily, and offers great value for the price. I would definitely recommend it to anyone with a compatible InStep or Schwinn trailer.

We could not find this part anywhere locally so decided to try this one and it was exactly what we needed! So happy we found it and can continue using our bike trailer.

Needed something less bulky since my gravel bike has a metal lip that limits how thick an attachment can fit. Luckily I made this work! It's not perfect and I had to do some "tweaks" to make it work. The notched washer that has the tab had to be faced down and as far forward as possible because there was no space on my frame to have it up. I put it forward because the downward pressure of the carrier would force it clock wise anyway. This way the washer is locked in which let's the hitch lock in. Next I had to have the hitch portion angled a but down as you can see in my pictures. With my added fenders and back rack bar being mounted i didn't have the room to have it at a 3 o'clock position. Luckily this bike is bigger with 27 1/2" wheels (I think) so i had extra ground clearance that allowed me the space to have it slightly down. Although as you can see in the picture my clearance is pretty low. My trailer is an old instep I bought used. It hooked up well. I love the new clip they give like other user stated. It gives you more leverage when removing the cart pin. The coating looks well done and it seems heavy duty. I recommend adding grease or a rust preventative on your knob washer because on my old one that is where it rusted because the coating wears off there first due to stress. You don't want it slippery I just said grease because it will help slow down wear. Anything that reduces rust will work. I recommend if you have a similar space problem like me. Luckily my axle bolt fit no problem also.

The connector fits perfectly and it's easy to disconnect if I want to take the wagon off, without taking the whole connection off.
