It was definitely worth it because he needed spacers to make it fit on my seat instead of the bike frame. I have an Electra from 2014 and we mounted it on the left side of my bike. I walk my pup on the left and it is the reverse of the photo which is from the Netherlands because I am in the US. The man almost didn’t want to attach it to my bike because he said ‘Lady you are going to get killed or run your dog over’. But he said he would and I bought a helmet. My husky puppy is 5 months old and I am using the carabiner and string right out of the box. When it has some more wear and he is larger I will upgrade to something more sturdy. You don’t want to make their line any longer than it is so your dog can’t run underneath your bike. I didn’t like the plastic safety release until I read the instructions and found out that it is made to safely separate you from your dog should you have a pole or tree or something come between you which could kill you or your dog. I have left it on and it has never come close to coming off. At first I just walked my bike with him next to me on his leash, then I attached his harness to the bike and walked it a couple of times until I thought he had the idea and then we were off! Not sure if it is because he is a real Siberian Husky but he really took to it immediately! I talk to him and watch him almost the entire ride. You need to verbally communicate and encourage your dog. Looking ahead for cars, other dogs, squirrels etc. I keep saying ‘leave it’ with authority and when we pass the obstacle I say ‘good boy’ in my high puppy talk voice. I make him sit when I attach the bike to his harness so he doesn’t take off when I am sitting on my bike. I say let’s go and he takes off. The only downside I have found is your dog needs to walk and go #2 or he will do it on the road mid run. When your dog slows down suddenly watch out for a squat and bring bags. You have to pace your dog because they aren’t athletes right out of the gate. It has taken my puppy about three weeks and he is finally running most of the way. I can’t imagine riding a bike with a dog using anything else. Since he is a working dog, this has REALLY helped curb his extra energy and cut down on the puppy biting! If you really want to do this, don’t let anyone discourage you. Find the right route, work with your dog on and off the bike and stay safe! Thank you so much for making this product ❤️ Michelle & Swift Review: What a knee saver! - After reading all the reviews on multiple dog bike trainers I opted for the SPRINGER JOGGER. It wasn't the cheapest of all systems but it seems to address the issue of a dog tugging in the opposite direction from the bike. Let me start with installation, I'm a 63 yr old female fully capable of using ratchets and wrenches. The install was super easy. This unit does have an allowance for your bike cables but my cables didnt' line up...I used one of the plastic frame liners over my cables and installed the mounting bracket under my seat...line up screws and hand tighten, then alternate your tightening and secure the unit. I had no problem! The arm and spring unit are easy to install, just be sure to use ample force when putting the spring down on the arm. I have a 11 month old beagle puppy who is still full of energy and walks are not enough to wear her out. All the walking had been causing my knees to have some issues. Hence the Springer unit...as suggested by others in the reviews and I read a lot of them....put your dog on the lead line and walk for a block or so. The dog needs to get used to the sounds of the bike and the gear change, tire noises and vehicles passing you by. Do this in the street...if your dog is used to sniffing the grass you will for sure encounter tugging in that direction. Walking on the street will resolve this issue and keep the dogs focus to the bike and your commands. Your pooch is attached, go ahead and get on your bike and try a short ride...my beagle was a little skiddish but quickly adapted to the exercise and we had a great first outing. Day two...harness up your pooch and do this again...no need to walk, your dog will be ready to run... The spring on this unit totally absorbs 90 % of the tug as advertised. I have no complaints so far. We did encounter an unleashed dog in the neighborhood who came running at us into the street. Even though my beagle was looking for a friendly greeting the bike never leaned or tipped in that direction. I felt I had total control, the braking and stopping in the street went better than expected. The other dog owner came out to get his dog and apologized for the scare....alls well, no falls, not much tugging and we got back on the bike and finished our run. I would recommend this to anyone who's dog requires more exercise than you can supply. The cotter pin is easy to remove in order to streamline your bike. I would suggest a flashing light in front and back on your bike to use in daylight and darkness as a warning for all drivers and pedestrians. I'm very happy with this unit and I am considering ordering an additional mounting bracket so the hubby can take the dog out. All he has to do is install cotter pin and Springer arm to his bike. ## Features - Biking with Your Buddy: The Springer Dog Exerciser is a hands free dog leash bike attachment that allows you to safely ride a bicycle with your pet while they run or walk alongside you - Safety & Protection: The Springer uses a low-mounted, heavy duty steel spring to absorb up to 90% of the force of a dog's unexpected tugs, while allowing bike riders to keep their balance, and protect their pets from getting near traffic, pedals, and wheels - Quick Release: The leash has a “safety release” which instantly frees your dog should a post, tree, or hydrant come between your dog and bicycle - Kit Components: This kit comes included with an 18-inch leash, 3 safety releases, and 1 metal hook; A harness is not included, so please use a harness that is suitable to your dog’s large, small, or medium size and breed - Universal Fit: The clamp fits most regular, touring, and mountain bikes, and can be used on either side of your bicycle; It’s easy to install and can be removed in seconds by releasing the cotter pin - Packaging can vary ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0017NM4OE | | Best Sellers Rank | #135,333 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #235 in Dog Hands Free Leashes | | Brand | Springer | | Brand Name | Springer | | Closure Type | Snap | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 639 Reviews | | Dog Breed Size | Large | | Included Components | Springer Hands Free Dog Leash Bike Attachment Kit -Pet Exerciser for Running, Walking Jogging - Universal Fit for Bicycles - Quick Release, 18-Inch Rope | | Item Dimensions L x W | 18"L x 6"W | | Item Display Dimensions | 17.99 x 5.98 inches | | Item Length | 18 inches | | Item Type Name | Springer Hands Free Dog Leash Bike Attachment Kit -Pet Exerciser for Running, Walking Jogging - Universal Fit for Bicycles - Quick Release, 18-Inch Rope | | Item Weight | 3.5 pounds | | Manufacturer | Springer AS | | Manufacturer Part Number | mc-sprnger-lead | | Material | Alloy Steel | | Material Type | Alloy Steel | | Model Number | mc-sprnger-lead | | Number of Items | 1 | | Pattern | Dog | | Pet Type | Dog | | Product Dimensions | 18"L x 6"W | | Size | Medium | | Target Species | Dog | | UPC | 075562063008 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | x | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Springer - **Color:** Black - **Material:** Alloy Steel - **Product Dimensions:** 18"L x 6"W - **Size:** Medium ## Images ![Springer Hands-Free Dog Bike Leash Attachment, Quick Release, 18-Inch Rope - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61igm7fchGL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: The narrative states an "emergency release" feature, does that mean a strong pulling dog could quickly pull away?** A: I'm not sure what the emergency release feature is, but I had a 110 pound dog on it once who lunged after a squirrel and the Springer held the dog. If I recall correctly (it's been a while ago) I stopped the bike and put my feet on the ground so as to hold the bike. But I do remember that I was surprised at how well the Springer absorbed the pulling of the dog; in other words, when the dog lunged, it didn't pull the bike as much as I would have expected. I have noticed that the plastic eyelet that attaches to the harness LOOKS sort of incomplete -- it doesn't shut all the way. That has always worried me a bit, but I've never had a dog get off of the eyelet, and I've used this on 5 dogs by now of varying sizes. Still, I like to put another leash on the dog's collar as a backup. I wrap the other end of the backup leash loosely around my fingers of my left hand. I can feel from that leash if the dog pulls before I feel it from the Springer. It helps me assess what my dog is doing without having to eyeball him the entire time. Another little trick I like to do is to put 1 1/2 paper towel cardboard rolls on the string between the eyelet that attaches to the dog's harness and the eyelet that is part of the Spring. That keeps the dog from running in toward the bike; it keeps him in a pretty good heeled position.Don't forget to let your dog determine how fast to go and when to stop. Also, don't forget to keep the dog's pads in mind. If it's a hot day and you run him on hot pavement, it may be burning the pads of his feet if they haven't been hardened and calloused to the heat. **Q: I need a new plastic hook and a safety release for the Springer - can you help me?** A: I can't help in terms of knowing where to get the plastic parts like the originals...BUT...I can tell you that I've had way better results using a metal carabiner(any hardware store will have them in numerous sizes and shapes). I use the Springer with 3 big dogs who want to chase everything. A metal carabiner, and if I(or they) see something they might want to chase, pedal FASTER. Seriously, the dog's priority will be to keep up with master, not chase the kitty.3 big dogs with minds of their own, and doing this for 5 years, never fallen off the bike or had any safety issues yet. **Q: will this work on an adult tricycle?** A: It should, you'll need a 3.5" space to install the unit brace...it doesn't necessarily have to be under the seat post. Mine is installed toward the front so the dog runs right beside my leg/pedal, haven't had any trouble. **Q: Do you use a collar or harness with the springer? The pictures show some of each. Any tips or pros/cons for either?** A: NEVER use anything other than a body harness when biking any dog on any bike or bike attachment. There is always a risk of having to stop abruptly and you do not want your dog to be on a neck collar in that moment. And even during regular biking without abrupt slow downs you do not want your dog to be controlled on the neck at running speed (would you like that?). You can go online and search "how to bike with dog" and a number of helpful sites will give you this and more tips. I am a dog trainer btw. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My husky puppy and I love it! *by M***E on August 9, 2023* Possibly the best purchase I have ever made on Amazon ❤️ I took it to my local bike shop and they put it on for $25.

It took my husband a few weeks of trial-and-error to attach the exerciser and I'm so glad he finally made it work for the hand-cycle. The attachment as sold is designed for typical bicycles, but if you have a hand-cyle, which is like an adult tricycle, there really is no way to conveniently attach it. My hand-cycle is wheelchair height, and I operate it like one when I need to go in reverse, so I presume it will also work for wheelchairs. The key is to have a raised bar to attach the Springer, otherwise, it will be too low and the leash will interfere with the wheels when the dogs pull me ahead. Here's my husband's genius idea to attach the springer: He got these parts from the local home improvement store: 1 heavy duty padded arm hanger 2 - 3 feet long vinyl coated galvanized cables* 4 - double ended snap hook 3 hose clamps 2 sets of the aluminum ferrule and stop set 4 cable ties 1 screw that match the size of the bolt that comes with the springer From the Container Store: 1 elfa utility large basket * We found that if the cable is too long, it can get caught in the wheels, so it was a matter of trial and error to find the perfect length that works for my bike. You will need to adjust this length to your bike. The length we arrived at gives our dogs enough room to run alongside me without getting their paws run over. I found the elfa basket to be the perfect width and size to store things behind the seat like treats, water bottles, drinking cups, poop bag holder, garage door opener, baby wipes (my hands get dirty from handling the wheels), etc. My husband used the cable ties to attach the basket to the bike. The basket has turned out to be one of the best accessories we got for the bike. My husband attached the arm hanger to the bottom of the seat. He then attached the springer to the hanger as high as it will go in order for the galvanized cable leashes to clear the wheels. The metal on the Springer is heavy and needs reinforcement, so he secured it with a second screw in order to balance the product's entire weight on the bike otherwise it feels loose and unsecured, which is why I rated this 4 stars. We found the plastic ring to be extremely weak, which is why we replaced with the double-ended snap hook cables. They hook onto the springer on one end and the dogs' pulling harnesses on the other. To keep the dogs from getting tangled up with each other, I also attach a leash to their collars that attach to the handcycle grip. Just for experimental purposes, I tried to go biking with the dogs without the Springer and they pulled me in all directions. I felt every tug and jerky motions. Once they are attached to the Springer, I could not feel much of their tugging because the attachment absorbs most of the force. When the dogs see a bird or squirrel and want to go after it, I can feel a slight tug and have enough time to steer in the opposite direction. After biking for over 600 miles, the Springer is still holding up to our show ponies. Many people at the park have asked about the springer and I have pointed them here to get theirs. ## Frequently Bought Together - Springer Hands Free Dog Leash Bike Attachment Kit -Pet Exerciser for Running, Walking Jogging - Universal Fit for Bicycles - Quick Release, 18-Inch Rope - Bungee Dog Leash Extension Attachment, 18” Shock Absorbing Lead Extension Absorber, Prevent Injury on Arm and Shoulder & Save Dogs from Getting Hurt, Great for Bicycle, Running, Walking - Yangbaga Dog Leash Extender, Shock Absorber Bungee Leash Attachment, Durable Nylon Dog Tie Out Extension with Stainless Steel Swivel Clips --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/13929913-springer-hands-free-dog-bike-leash-attachment-quick-release-18](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/13929913-springer-hands-free-dog-bike-leash-attachment-quick-release-18) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-11-08*
