What is a good big comfy bike seat?

What kind of attachment seat should i buy so my baby can ride on my husband's bike with him?

  • I am looking to buy an attachment for my husband's bicycle so he can bring our daughter out for rides. This is going to be a gift, so i can't ask him for advice. I have been leaning toward the front attachment (attaches to the bike frame in front of my hubby's seat) b/c it is supposed to have a better center of gravity. Plus, he would be able to see what she is looking at. We live in a pretty busy area, so i was thinking that the trailer kind would not be as practical for us.....Anyway, i was wondering what kind of bike attachments other people had, and if they were happy with them. Would you recommend the seat you bought? why or why not? I would like to hear about any types of seats....front or rear mounting, and the trailer kind. Thank you!!! Oh, the one i have really been thinking about is the ibert safe-t-seat. Has anyone used this seat? I have included a link http://www.ibertinc.com/

  • Answer:

    I can't really speak for the front mount bike seats. I worry about the distraction of a child in front and the laws of physics during an accident doesn't favour the person in front. We have a removable rear bike seat that our child just loves and he's never complained about the view. While my husband can take him for rides, I can't seem to balance our son's weight on my bike...perhaps with more practice. One of those trailer hook ups might be a better solution but while its lower to the ground, you have that addition equipment weight not to mention the additional cost. Just my opinion.

I have no recommendations, but do want to say that emergency room docs absolutely CRINGE when they hear someone wants to do that. I guess they see too many kids who've fallen to the pavement when Dad fell off the bike.

the seat I had for my son attached to the back of my bike. I probably got it at Sears. don't forget a child's helmet, too.
