Get Your Kiddo Shready Ready With This New Mountain Bike Child Seat
Get Your Kiddo Shready Ready With This New Mountain Bike Child Seat originally appeared on BikeMag.
Okay, so hucking in the bike park with your baby is generally frowned upon. But when you want to go for a chill cruise with your family or are ready to introduce your child to the first flowy thrills of mountain biking, the new Shotgun Pro EVO child seat from Kids Ride Shotgun keeps your downhill beast in play.
Claiming to be the first-ever convertible mountain bike child seat, the Shotgun Pro EVO is a child seat that attaches to your rig and fits kiddos 9 months to 5 years old.
'Most child seats weren't built for mountain bikes,' Kids Ride Shotgun says. 'The Pro EVO is. Its game-changing level of adjustability means no more restricted turning, frame contact, or bulky adapters. Just a seat that integrates with your bike, not interferes with it.'
Designed by mountain bikers specifically for mountain bikes, the Shotgun Pro starts with a five-point harness setup for babies and toddlers 9 to 24 months (2 to 33 pounds). When your child turns 2 and can support themself, the Shotgun Pro transforms into a kid's seat with tiny handlebars and stirrups so your child can ride with you until they're 5 (26 to 60 pounds).
The seat attaches to your bike's stem and seat post, sitting above the bike's top tube with no frame contact. Quick-release attachments allow parents to quickly set and remove the system.
Bikes need to have at least a standard 1 ⅛' steerer tube, at least 10mm of headset space, 14mm of seat post space, and front suspension for the seat to fit.
