Description of WeeRide Kangaroo Child Bike Seat
Product Description The WeeRide Kangaroo Center Mounted Child Carrier offers an award-winning design that allows children to enjoy and share in the cycling experience, surrounded by your protective pair of arms. Your child is not behind you uninterested and distanced by the limited view. The child?s position also keeps the center of gravity where it belongs ? on the bicycle frame, not behind the rider. This all adds up to a more comfortable ride for the cyclist AND the passenger. The Child Carrier is mounted on an independent adjustable steel support bar that attaches firmly between the frame?s head tube and the seat post. The support bar is designed to mount on almost any bicycle. Customer contact information at 1-800-451-KENT (5368) or www.kentbicycles.com -- Safety Information - Always wear a helmet, knee and elbow pads when riding. Check all nuts and bolts for tightness before riding. For casual riding on smooth, flat, paved and dry surfaces free of sand , gravel or dirt. Do not ride at night or in areas of traffic. For children up to 40lbs, "If you need straps in a different size please call us at Kent International and we will have them shipped to you right away."The WeeRide Kangaroo center-mounted bike seat offers an award-winning design that makes biking with your child much safer and much more fun. It's installed onto virtually any bicycle via a patent pending, independent steel support bar that attaches between the front handle bar tube and the seat post. It provides a much more enjoyable and interactive experience for the child and rider. Your child's needs can be heard, seen and attended to more easily, and he or she has a more interesting view--no more staring at someone's back. Other advantages include no dangling arms or legs to reach wheels and the rear of the bike is free to carry your gear.
The seat is made from an injection-molded plastic form, and it features a comfortable padded foam seat, height adjustable foot cups, and a fully adjustable three-point security harness. The Padded pedestal armrest sitting atop the handlebars gives children somewhere comfortable to put their hands, and can serve as a headrest for the napping toddler.
The steel support bar is an independent support system that does not interfere with brake cables or other attached bicycle gear. It includes different sizes of plastic spacers for the front yoke attachment and rear seat post to protect the posts and ensure it fits on almost any recreational bicycle available. It's easily removable for when you want to ride on your own.
It can be used with mountain/city bikes with upright handlebars (with drop-handled racing handlebars, the rider leans forward too much for the child to sit comfortably). Children should be at least 1 year old, and it has a maximum weight capacity of 40 pounds. This bike seat is designed for casual riding on smooth, flat, paved and dry surfaces free of sand, gravel or dirt.
Sports reviews of WeeRide Kangaroo Child Bike Seat
Customer Review: So much fun!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
This bike seat is so much fun! We spent many many hours riding bikes on the boardwalk during our summer vacation and this seat was worth every cent, our 18mth old was begging for more at the end of every ride! Although I'm not even sure who had more fun, Dad or Jnr!?! It was pretty easy to put together - it took a bit of work figuring out how to get it to fit a beach cruiser but it worked out just fine. I was also sceptical about the sleeping idea, but he actually did comfortably fall asleep on a couple of late night rides too... Highly recommended!Customer Review: WOW. As Good As Advertised

Great Product!
After watching videos online of this product we decided to give it a try. Our Daughter LOVES riding with Mommy and Daddy in her Weeride. Very easy to mount onto bike - I took about 25 mins total from unpacking box to stapping our little one in the seat. Extremley stable and well balanced. Your knees easily clar the seat and you can see over your child's helmet. Our Daughter is comfortable and safe. Our first ride she yelled WEEEEEEEE WEEEEEEEE out and back. Much better ride for your child than rear mounted seats.
Customer Review: Absolutly awesome

I was skeptical about this product. My son is 1 but the size of a 3 year old 33 lbs I was afraid he was going to be too big. I attached to my beachcruiser and it works awesome. People see me at beach and i always hear aww how cool or thats cute!! Steering is no problem and he seems to love it. I just need to get him a bigger helmet his head is big and the 3 year old helmet seems to be to small. I feel totally safe and secure with him on weeride. Awesome invention I'm so glad I finally got one it is so much fun.Customer Review: Short woman loves it!

I read several reviews before purchasing this item and almost didn't because I am only 5'3"; however, I have had no problems seeing over my son using it. My child is 2-years old and is 34" tall (much bigger than most other reviewers children). I think the height issue all depends on what kind of bike you're going to be mounting it on. I have a mountain bike with a strait bar. My son and I love going for bike rides and he absolutely loves being in front so he can see. I would highly recommend this item.Customer Review: WeeeeeeeRide

This was purchased for my wife. I reviewed all the different types of child seats available and this one offered the opportunities I was looking for and at the right price. My wife is able to keep an eye on the child. My child is able to see everything he wants to. To me...It is the safest option available. I would recommend it to anyone with a 1 year old. I can't comment on any ages older than that yet...but I am sure it will grow with the child until graduation to self riding.
