Very sturdy. Easy to ride with it on my bike and my son loves it.

Satisified mommy Jul 17, 2009
This carrier came within 2 days of ordering! The instructions were decent, but with common sense you can get it together in less than 20 min. The bike I bought was not compatible with this seat, a schwinn women's comfort bike. This carrier will only work with moutain bikes. I exchanged the Schwinn for a Lakota and still had to adjust the positioning of the pieces that connect to the tire frame area. But with a little resourcefulness it worked out. My daughter is 19.4lbs (14 1/2 months old) and even after not riding a bike for over 10 years, the bike was easy to handle with her on. She loves it! She used the handlebar in front the entire time. It is very lightweight and flexible (at first was apprehensive)BUT VERY STURDY! The seat is padded nicely and the straps are more secure than I thought they'd be. Get refelctive tape though, when dark the bike and carrier are not easily seen.
Started using this at 12 months and still riding at 22 months Jul 16, 2009
I put this on my Trek mountain bike since I didn't want to give up riding after the baby arrived. My little girl loves riding on this with me and everytime we get out of the car in the garage she points to the seat and says "bike, bike!"
I have an older Trek 6000 hard tail that I was able to get all the mounting brakets around the bike frame. However, I had to use vice-grips to hold brackets around the thicker seat post and wheel bars to get the bolts through the bracket holes. So, even tough it was definitely a squeeze, everything was able to fit securely, without damage to my bike.
The nice thing about this is that the seat has three hand bolts that can be unscrewed to remove the entire seat. So, you can still go riding with only the seat brace attached. I haven't had a chance to really off road with the brace still attached, but I don't see any reason why it would cause a problem with your solo riding.

 Terrible Product Jul 15, 2009
My husband and I purchased this 2 days ago and are returning it today. It took him 2 hours to install and the plastic is cheap and flimsy. We were afraid to put our son in it but decided to go for a very short ride down the street. After 5 minutes in the seat he was in a reclining position almost touching the back tire. The seat itself was comfortable for him but it bends and moves around too easily. I would not recommend buying this product...spend some more $ for a more safe and reliable product.

 Does not fit ALL frames Jul 07, 2009
Disappointed as had to really adjust mounting brackets to fit bike...just a regular bike, but this mounting system is made for smaller diameter bikes..like ten-speed frames. diappointed, but is ok and safe, just too much work in adjusting it..they should specify what type of frame it can be mounted to. would not buy it again, would spend more money on one that is adjustable to different bikes.
