Springer Lets Bicyclist and Dog Exercise Together
Bicycle attachment helps bikers and their dogs stay trim, now redesigned to fit more bicycle makes/models and work with more dog sizes
Raleigh, NC – Norwegian-based manufacturer Springer AS recently named Springer America (springeramerica.com)
The Springer bicycle attachment, which allows cyclists to exercise themselves and their pets at the same time, uses a low-mounted, heavy-duty steel spring to absorb up to 90% of the force of a dog’s unexpected tugs, enabling bike riders to keep their balance, while protecting their dogs from traffic, pedals, and wheels. Its patented safety release frees the dog instantly if he gets caught around a tree or hydrant.
According to Springer America President, Kjell Ottesen, “We are very excited to be able to offer American and Canadian cyclists the opportunity to bring together two of their greatest loves – their bikes and their dogs – by offering the Springer directly to consumers via our website at www.springeramerica.com and through selected retailers and high-quality catalogs.”
In the latest innovation, a new Z-shaped adaptor was designed to give the user greater flexibility in where the Springer fits on the bike. Because it can attach either higher or lower on the frame than before, the Springer will work with more bicycle makes/models and a wider range of dog sizes than was possible previously.
Offering easy installation and an option to exercise two dogs simultaneously, the Springer fits most regular, touring, and mountain bikes. All Springer components carry a 30-day money back guarantee, with a limited lifetime warranty on all metal parts.
