I'm looking for a good quality double bike trailer (so I don't have to upgrade later). I know most of these can also be converted to jogging strollers too. I don't know how much we'll use it as a jogger but we definitely want it as a bike trailer. Any recs on brands or advice?

Thanks!

We've been thinking of getting a Chariot. Very popular around here (and Canadian-made).

There are so many different models plus they are super pricey! Any ideas on where to find the best deal on them?

I don't know if the price is comparable in the US, but I think here in Canada the prices are fairly consistent from one store to the next. I've seen them in both baby and bike shops. I looked into buying one from a local consignment store, and they said that the Chariots tend to be sold as soon as they come into the store. I gave up looking there, I don't have the energy to chase one down! The clerks also said they really retain their value, so second-hand wasn't much cheaper than new.

Have you checked eBay or CL?
