My little girls does, some of the pics i have seen do - is it the norm?
Fittings are a bit sloppy on the whole, so expect a bit of lean.
Not helped by junior leaning out to the side to see ahead either.
Top tip: fit a bar-end mirror when riding with a child behind you so you can keep an eye on them...
its the way you do the seat post clamp up. This needs to be pointing straight back and as you really nip it up you find that the fitting is now sat to one side. Its easy to get the headset clamp done straight as its four bolts. Turn your seat post around a little, see what effect this has.
yes but the answers may be above - I found using a trailer and strapping little un's bike on top much better than using a trailgator -pain to set up correctly
or it could be they are leaning out to check if valves are aligned with logos
It won't always be the left but yes.
Mine could get upto 45 degrees before she fell off.
pedal strikes are the issue though!!
Lean is caused by mainly the headtube, but also the seatpost, clamp not being straight.
Setting it up you may think you've done the headtube clamp up enough but as soon as you put the kid's weight on it, it shifts. The answer is to get the bolts on the headtube clamp REALLY tight. This does damage the paintwork though so don't use a trailgator with a nice bike.
Seatpost clamp is much easier to get straight and tight (but don't use a posh, lightweight seatpost).
