@crow what’s your experience with the child seat? Would you recommend it? Keen to take be able to take the 2.5 year old mini for a spin from time to time
frankohara-
Would 100% recommend with some caveats:
- mine definitely needed the smaller front chainring to make it viable
- It’s still a bit like hard work on long uphill drags, but I just get off and push and toddler is happy to just sit and survey the surroundings/ask me daft questions
- You do need to adopt a knees out pedalling style
It has totally transformed the bike into something I used occasionally to something we now use all the time. Kid definitely prefers it to the back mounted seat on my other bike and we have good little chats while riding now. Hopping on and off around town she just stays on and I push her around so it has largely replaced the push chair, too. My wife, who is much less confident on a bike and a fair bit shorter than me also finds it easy to use :)
