   Underrated child’s bike seat has great features not listed in product description, comes pre-assembled (mostly)
   This seat is above what I expected, and the default product description just doesn’t do it justice. I had previously tried a child seat from Bell, which required attaching to the seat post clamp with a bolt that was too large to fit. There was no adapter, so I had to return it. Everything was in pieces and it took me an hour to put it together and then take it back apart.
   This one was the complete opposite and so much better! Here are the features, and many of which aren’t listed in the product description:
   – There are two main parts: the plastic seat and a steel rack, which you’ll need to attach to your bike. Each comes pre-assembled!
   – The seat has a foam back-reset and a air-cushion seat padding, y-straps for the shoulders, and ankle straps. My 21 mo daughter was able to pull her feet out when she really wanted to, but they do keep her feet in most of the time. There’s also the horizontal bar that swings up when you need to get your child in/out. The blue foot stirrups also adjust up/down. This was all together out of the box and adjusting does not need tools.
   – The steel rack attaches to your bike in three places: around each seat stay and around your seat post. You will need either a 10 mm wrench or a crescent wrench to tighten the nuts. These are also pre-assembled!
   – The seat attaches to the rack by sliding it on from the back. You then fold down a clamp and screw into place with a hand-tighten child-proof screw cap. It’s the big orange cap between the child’s legs. It works like a medicine bottle top (push down to turn). There’s also a large plastic orange retainer pin that slides through the rack and seat once both are in place to prevent the seat from sliding back. That pin is held in place with a cotter pin. You can see the ring of that pin just peaking out under the seat in the product picture.
   – Last, there’s an option head rest/extension that you can screw onto the back of the seat. It provides an extra ~8 in of head rest above the seat back and uses three screws to hold it in place. These are included.
   This took about 15 min to assemble and I really like that I can remove the seat if I want to ride around with just the rack on the bike. To do that you don’t need tools. Just unscrew the safety cap and pull out the large plastic pin under the seat. The seat then slides off the rack.
   Once we assembled the seat, the three of us took a ride to the local park. Our daughter promptly had a mini-meltdown within 10 min at the park, but once she calmed down the rides there and back were great, she loved it! Toddler Tyrant strikes again!

   Worth the money!
   I bought this for my 4 year old. She doesn’t know how to ride her own bike yet and we love to go on family rides together so we ordered this to bring her with us. She absolutely loves it. She is able to see all around and feels safe in it. We did have an accident where the bike tipped over with her inside and this thing nestled her in so well she never touched the ground just the side of the seat did. It’s very durable and the weight isn’t bad at all. It sits a bit close to the rider’s seat so her knees hit my bum sometimes, but that is also because she is starting to outgrow it. The design is perfect because the holes in the back keep her from getting to hot too. I will warn that it can be a bit tricky to install and tighten the screws properly. It’s easier with someone else helping, but can be done solo. Just be patient with it and play with it until you get it where you want it. I would definitely recommend this for anyone wanting to big their little ones for a ride.

   Great seat – good built quality – clever design.
   This is a really nice seat.
   In both the seat AND the installation hardware there are multiple redundancies for safety/security… it’s a really well thought out design and fairly easy to install.
   TIP: The only part that might goof you up is that the big red button in the front, you push down and UNSCREW it to open that little compartment – in there is where you slip the seat onto the mountain rails.
   This is the only part I got confused on and had to look up – everything else was pretty much “guess and it works as guessed” during the install.
   NOTE: There is a great hard plastic spoke guard that goes over the back wheel so your kids legs cannot physically get near the spokes in the wheel (or their shoe laces for example) and in the pictures it shows thin zip-ties going through them to secure it to the seat post… I couldn’t find any thin zip ties in the box so I wasn’t able to install it. This was the only weird part.
   I would point out that the ‘leg straps’ do keep your kids feet in the foot wells which is why this wasn’t a big deal.
   One thing I noticed that I wasn’t crazy about, but not a big enough deal to deduct a star, is that the cross-bar that goes across their stomach/chest can unlatch and swing open — which is super cool — but the plastic tab that latches on the one side is actually kind of thin and if you kept latching/unlatching over and over again, I think this plastic tab might break off.
   We always just leave it closed and slip the baby down in from the top and it hasn’t been an issue though, so no biggie.

   Great bike carrier
   This is our second bike carrier from Schwinn. Years and years ago we purchased for our children, and now we are buying for our grandchildren. This is a very good product. First, it is easy to assemble right out of the box. The price is great for this kind of product. Our first grandchild used this for about three years as he was on the smaller size, but worked well. Our second grandson was much bigger. He would have loved to ride in this for many years, but by the time he was 2.5 he out grew this. Child must be at least a year old and have good head control. We always used helmets and that is where some of our negative comments come from. The old seats were a little more contoured to accommodate the helmets. This one, if you have a taller child, does not have the space for helmet, and head is just a tad tilted forward. Also, the foot area is too narrow. Its works, but personally feel if a bit wider would accommodate wider feet better. But, it is very sturdy and always felt safe with my babies. Attaching to bicycle can be a little confusing as the bracket to attach is very alignment specific. Always use as directed because like anything it could come loose. I will be using with more grandchildren as it is great to get them out and about safely attached to me.

   I must say, this bike seat for children is one of the best things I’ve bought in a long time! I purchased it last August and used it every day during the summer to pick up my 3-year-old daughter from daycare. The route to daycare is almost 7km long, so I was biking almost 14km per day! But the bike seat made it so much easier and more enjoyable for both me and my daughter. She loves it and it’s a great way to spend more time with her.
   The seat feels really secure and I don’t have to constantly look back to check if she’s okay. She weighs almost 14kg and the straps fit her great. The installation of the rack took around 30 minutes and it fits perfectly on my 2021 Trek FX2. I don’t use the rack for anything else, but it’s nice to know that there are compatible accessories from different brands if I ever want to carry things on my bike.
   Removing and attaching the seat is also a breeze, taking only around 2 minutes. I usually remove it on weekends when I want to bike by myself, but it’s so easy to put back on that it’s not a hassle at all. I also love that the seat is easy to clean and it still looks great after months of use.
   Overall, this bike seat for children was the best purchase I made in 2022. It’s a game-changer for biking with my daughter and I can’t wait for the warmer weather so we can start using it again!

   Me encantó la silla, es cómoda y resistente. Fue medianamente fácil de instalar. Me gusta que se puede quitar con relativa facilidad, para no llevarla todo el tiempo contigo. A mí hijo le encantaaaa, ama sus paseos en bici.
   Me gusta que tiene seguro para los pies también. Y protección de la llanta. No me encanta el manubrio (el reposa manos?) pues su seguro se ve frágil, siento que se va a romper en algún momento. Lo bueno es que tiene cinturón.
   Ojo si se te duerme el peque en el trayecto, no es nada cómodo, la cabeza se les va mucho para adelante y puede pegar en el reposamanos.

   Have been using it for 3 weeks now. Installation is pretty straightforward. You will need your own tools. The rear luggage carrier is a good feature. One thing I don’t like is the shoe laces that are used to secure the leg guard. My daughter loves that she is able to go bike rides with me. Overall pretty happy. It is secure.

   El domingo pasado fuimos en bicicleta por primera vez y mi hija quedó fascinada con la silla. Muy resistente, duradera y fácil de instalar. Lo mejor de todo es que tiene como 3 sistemas de seguridad para evitar que la silla se caiga en ningún sentido por lo que da mucha confianza.
   El asiendo tiene una especie de burbuja quehace que los niños vayan más cómodios y los cinturones son super ergonómicos por lo que los niños van completamente seguro.
