Trouble finding parts

I have a Sepnine trailer that is missing the handle that converts it from a trailer to a stroller. Does anyone have any ideas on locating parts for this brand? I've emailed and messaged the company and have not had any replies.

Many jogging/stroller handles simply clamp on.

Looking on the web, that appears to use a tube & pin system.



Do you have those black mounts & pins?

It is possible that handles from other strollers could be modified to work with that trailer. Or, perhaps you could bend one out of something like electrical conduit.

Do you have careful dimensions such as width (center to center), and the diameter of the handle tubes (based on the mounting tubes)?

I was thinking exactly what Clifford said above. I think it would take an electrician about five minutes or less to fabricate a nice handle for the stroller. I would attempt it myself. Another option would be to fabricate one out of PVC piping. -- a few feet of pipe, two 90° joints, two 45° joints, and two straight in-line joints (and some PVC glue).
