I have a tilting Hamax which I’ve used on a couple of bikes: Raleigh RSW, cargo bike facing backwards, retro GT road bike and 90s mtb. What I’ve noticed is the biggest things that make for a stable ride are a long wheelbase and a sturdy frame. You need the right bike more than you need the right seat, if that makes sense. The GT was a handful because it wiggled around something chronic. The mtb is by far the best bike because of the longer rear end and stiffer frame. It’s just completely planted even with weight on the back.
The Hamax lets you adjust the seat forwards and backwards on the mounting as well as tilt. Extra frame mounts are about £18 and we have 2.
Additionally, if you can find a broken seat being thrown out, you can bin the broken seat bit and use the frame as a rack.

So here we are again. Yepp seat post mount seems enormous, ride along seems like more of the mount comes off with the seat, but yepp seems cooler...
Or do I just get a rear rack and get a rack mounting yepp?
If so, recommendations on a rear rack that's not too massive??
Thanks
