Don't buy this here..... 
by .. April T. Henley (Wayne, MI USA)
We have a bike trailer that uses this and it is great, easy to hook the trailer on and off. We are ordering a second for our other bike. Instep had been out of stock for a while and they have them again. I am glad I never thought to look here because it is $8.99 on the InStep website and for me in Michigan it is only $4 shipping. That's $12.99 total which is less than the price of the item only here on Amazon. Had I bought this here I would have paid almost $20 for the item plus shipping.
Complete package including washer, pin, and hitch. by .. iowaryder ()
This part is identical to the hitch couplings that come with the InStep trailers other than it is a gloss black instead of a more matte black finish. One thing not mentioned in the product description is that this incudes not only the coupler and pin (as pictured) but also the special "washer" that mounts behind the hitch to keep it horizontal.
Often a concern or issue with the cheaper trailers is if they will properly mount to more "high end" bikes. The garden variety mass market retailer bikes (i.e. the cheaper ones) usually have a horizontal dropout for the rear axle where the more expensive bikes will have a vertical dropout for the axle. The hitches are designed with mass market retailer bikes (horizontal dropouts) in mind.
These hitches will work on either. With vertical dropouts rather than following the directions provided, you must instead position the tab that sticks off the back of the washer so that it will rest against the bottom of the frame instead of within the dropout as they are designed.
My wife an I each have one of these hitches on our Raleigh Route 4.0 hybrids (that have a vertical dropouts) and they work just fine. The hitches are also completely compatible with "quick release" style hubs.
Easy and quick to install by .. Derek ()
I bought this so we could pull our child trailer with both mine or my wive's bike. Takes only a small adjustable wrench to install. The lock pin U-clip is very firm. Best part of this setup is the child trailer will not tip over if you dump your bike.
got just what I was after by .. Christine Reynolds ()
We needed a coupler attachment for our bike trailer and went straight to the manufacturer. They (of course) were out so I went to amazon and got exactly what we needed and for a cheaper price. It came to us within a week and works great.
A must have by .. Jeremy W (Concord, NC)
I bought this extra Coupler so both my wife and I could attach our Schwinn Bike Trailer to either bike. As far as I'm concerned, this is a must have. The coupler system makes it so easy to hook up a trailer to a bike and based on how much I have already used it I feel confident that it is a high-quality and reliable system.
