Great quality, did not expect at all for the price.

1. When attaching the chair to the frame, be sure to fully insert the seatpost down (i. E. lower the saddle). Once I overdid it and the mount slightly crushed the aluminum frame and now the saddle does not fall below the mount. 2. I always check where the child's head "flies" during heavy braking, it is important that it is not in the seat. It is necessary that in the lower back. If I'm traveling with a child, I lower the seat lower. Yes, the seat belts can be pulled tighter. - The rear…

Pros
  • I like the chair very much. I have been using them for 3 years. In the summer every day I ride with a child up to 1.5 hours. Comfortable, beautiful, creates a feeling of a quality thing. The seat can be removed, leaving only the mount on the bike. Perfectly absorbs small bumps and small curbs. I have been driving my children since the age of 10 months (at the beginning no more than 15 minutes) - since they can sit. And you can continue to carry up to 22 kg (in the region of 5-6 years!).
Cons
  • 1. In reviews on foreign sites they write that the chair may not fit all frames. I have attached it to 3 different bikes and they all fit. It should definitely fit the MTBs that are common with us 2. The mount itself is very thick and can get in the way of the forward shift cable if it goes outside the tube. There is a special adapter on the yepp website. But in 2022, I could not get one. Now the cable slightly touches the rubber bands - not critical for switching.

Feels great can't wait to ride it

It's so expensive I have to change the chainring had to dock, especially since I had to buy a rack adapter to fit my bike. It looks really cool and I was able to thread a zip tie through an unused shoulder strap to hang a blinking taillight. Thule makes a flashlight that fits in the back for around $30, but the reviews don't seem to blink. Overall I bought it for safety reasons and if I buy a cargo bike I can fit 2 of them on the back. Also, the Thule Yepp Maxi weighs about 10 pounds and the…

Pros
  • Fits on rear bike racks with EasyFit window or luggage rack with Thule Yepp Maxi EasyFit adapter (sold separately)
Cons
  • Doesn't fit everything

Love this seat. Child seat compatible

We've had this since our daughter was old enough to ride with us and would highly recommend if you're after a rack mount seat Looking for. She's a little baby so this place survived. She still "fits" a six-year-old, although she's about to hit her weight limit. ADVANTAGES: Easy to switch between bikes. We started with two 26" Specialized Hardrocks (I had a smaller frame), matching racks and EasyFit adapters. Changing the seat between bikes was easy. I usually talked Dad into taking the baby. At

Pros
  • Soft and padded seat for child comfort
Cons
  • Expensive

The Daily Rider is here. LOVE this seat!

I live in Seattle where a lot of families ride bikes with their kids and this seat is the BEST I need. You see them all over town. When I found a bunch of these at the Revain warehouse I grabbed them even though I didn't have a bike to put them on :) I've since fitted an Xtracycle Free Radical to the back of my hybrid bike. and sit on it. I bought the Flightdeck 2 specifically for my Free Radical because it has built-in Easyfit windows: it saved me from having to pay another $30 for an Easyfit…

Pros
  • The adjustable 5-point harness keeps your child safe and fits perfectly.
Cons
  • Some Trouble
