Hi all

 

Wasn't sure if this was the right section so mods please move if it's not!

 

I'm looking to see if anyone knows anything about where I might be able to get a bobike mini city in South Africa? All of the reviews I've seen suggest that this is by far the best front mounted one.

 

I tried a weeride on my bike (Giant Anthem) the other day but didn't have enough clearance to pedal properly!

Thanks for any suggestions! If anyone has one lying around they're interested in selling I'm interested!!

Hi,

 

I also have a Giant anthem and wanted to have the option ride with he kids.

 

What I went for was the Bilbi front carrier from sportsmans warehouse. However, it didn't fit on the front but works if you put it on the seat post and suspend over the back wheel. I find it stable and have taken my 4 year old in the spruit with it with no problem.

 

Happy hunting.

That thing looks like a real mission to put on and take off, unless you plan on permanently leaving it on your bike or have a second bike for that.

 

How about these?

Easy on, easy off ... and pretty cheap.

We sell them for R500

Star seat is a winner all the way. Easy on easy off and best of all doesn't damage your frame.  The last kiddie seat I had took chunks out of my frame. Take the youngest to creche on it sometimes and loves it to bits.

Star seat works great. Installed it on my old bike. Took my son (2 1/2 years old) down G-spot a couple of times... he loves it. In the beginning he was "skeptical" about wearing a helmet.

Hi tankman, what is the weight limit on those seats?

I cant see a weight limit as such.

 

The recommendation seems to be that kids heavier than 15kg should be put in a carrier behind your saddle.
