Supporting you and your family to SMILE when you ride.
Family riding is great fun and can be started when your child is approximately 1 year old. All the options for riding with a one year old are great ones – front seats, rear seats or bike trailers. They have been designed with very young children in mind so have amazing harness systems and great seating support.Â
Different Riding Environments.
Consider where you would like to ride with your child now and in the future. Having the right seat and/or tow solution for the environments you want to ride in gives your family the ability to enjoy and grow your family riding.
In Traffic
Riding on the road, near and around vehicles
Bikepath Riding
Riding off road trails that are sealed or compacted gravel
Off – Road/Mountain BikingÂ
Riding off-road trails, loose gravel, uneven, undulating terrain
There are factors other than ‘where you ride’ that will influence your decision about which seat or trailer to buy (your best match). Factors such as
- The style of bike you have
- The size of your family – how many children, now and in the future
