Why it matters
The Rascal holds one pet up to 50 lb. Large 16 in air-filled tires on quick-release wheels smooth the ride, and the frame folds for storage. A universal coupler fits most bikes. Inside, a washable liner and interior leash keep pets comfortable and secure, and a rear 'doggy door' makes entry easy. One-year limited warranty.
