Thule
Research by Peter Crona
Method How we research
Thule is one of the clearest starting points for active families who care more about bigger wheels, rougher routes, and outdoor use than about compact city convenience. If running stability, park trails, or gravel handling matter to you, this brand is usually worth checking early. For more information, see the official website.

Child Bike Seats
- Our score: 9.66 / 10
Thule Yepp 2 Maxi Frame Mount
Thule Yepp 2 Maxi Frame Mount carries a child behind the rider without a child-seat-rated rack. Its foam shell, five-point harness and adjustable footrests suit daily trips. Confirm seat-tube and wheel clearance and the limit for the supplied market version: European and UK specifications allow 22 kg/48.5 lb, while the US/Canada limit is 18 kg/39.7 lb.
- Our score: 9.66 / 10
Thule Yepp 2
The Thule Yepp 2 is a rear-mounted child seat for families who want a broader real-world comparison set before narrowing down to premium labels.
- Our score: 9.49 / 10
Thule Yepp Nexxt 2 Maxi Rack Mount
Thule Yepp Nexxt 2 Maxi Rack Mount is the lighter rear-rack Nexxt option when your carrier is already child-seat compatible.
- Our score: 9.33 / 10
Thule RideAlong 2 Frame Mount
Thule RideAlong 2 Frame Mount suits families wanting a reclining rear seat without relying on a luggage rack. Its quick-release bracket and suspension help on repeated rides, but the seat tube must match Thule's round or oval limits and leave enough saddle, heel and rear-wheel clearance.
- Our score: 9.33 / 10
Thule Yepp 2 MIK HD
Thule Yepp 2 MIK HD is the quick click-in rear seat for a bike that already has a genuine MIK HD carrier. Its 5-point harness and adjustable footrests suit everyday family rides, but this version is incompatible with ordinary MIK or universal racks, so the carrier marking must be checked before buying.
Bike Trailers

Thule Chariot Lite
The Thule Chariot Lite suits families wanting a suspended double trailer for cycling and walking, with optional ski or all-terrain kits. Its fold and VersaWing simplify activity changes; extra kits increase the cost substantially and should match activities you will actually use.
- Our score: 9.33 / 10
Thule Chariot Cross 2
Thule Chariot Cross 2 is a two-child trailer for families switching often between cycling and walking. The double version has adjustable suspension, individually reclining removable seats and the supplied stroller wheels. It weighs 16.1 kg/35.5 lb and Thule lists an 80 cm/31.5 in door-pass-through width, so measure storage, car boot and the route through your home before buying. The standard seat starts at 6 months for walking and 1 year for cycling, with per-child limits of 22 kg/48.5 lb, 111 cm/43.7 in and 4 years. The instructions cap children plus luggage at 42 kg/92.6 lb total, so 22 kg/48.5 lb per child does not permit 44 kg/97 lb of passengers.
- Our score: 9.33 / 10
Thule Chariot Sport 2
The Thule Chariot Sport 2 suits Canadian families who want one of the highest-end multisport trailer and stroller options on the market, with stronger premium touches than the Chariot Cross line.
- Our score: 9.33 / 10
Thule Courier
The Thule Courier suits Canadian families who want a premium two-seat trailer and stroller with broader utility than simpler family trailers, including stronger day-to-day hauling flexibility.

Thule Urban Glide 3 Double
Thule Urban Glide 3 Double gives siblings independent reclines and canopies, with air tyres, suspension and a twist hand brake for walking routes. Its 80 cm/31.5 in width and 16 kg/35.3 lb weight make doorway and lifting checks essential. This configuration is for walking, not running or skating.
- Our score: 9.39 / 10
Thule Urban Glide 3
Thule Urban Glide 3 combines air-filled tires, suspension, a lockable front wheel and a twist hand brake for mixed-surface walks. Thule lists it in its jogging range, but the instructions linked for this 101019XX generation say it is not suitable for running or skating. Choose another model if running is essential until Thule resolves that conflict; six months is only the stroller-seat minimum.
Rain Covers
Thule Urban Glide 3 Rain Cover
A model-specific Thule cover for the Urban Glide 3, with simple installation and a transparent shield against rain and wind. It is the cleanest fit if your stroller is the single Urban Glide 3.
Stroller Organizers
Thule Stroller Organizer
Thule's organizer is for families already in the Thule stroller ecosystem who want a tidy zip-top pouch rather than exposed cups and toys. It keeps small essentials contained, but it is the wrong fit if you need open drink holders on every walk.
