I am so getting the little un one of those LOCT Seats, they look the mutts. I love how they can stand up when it's get rough

I think he'll prefer that much more than the rear seat we have, now just have to justify the cost and see if they will make me one

Bobike is good - but you need a bike with a long top tube to avoid your knees banging - or ride like John Wayne.

Yeah its been saying that for the last 2 years or so, every time I call or email they say they havent made any since 2008. Been. after one for ages, but to be honest I'm dead happy with the leco at 20 quid.

Though they were back on limited production - at least that's what the website says.

Google LOCT if you're looking for them.

Wee ride is good, will probably swap to a loct when she's a bit older (14 months) seems to do the business nicely

Id recommend the iBert Safe-t-seat. The kid's legs stick out either side of the stem, which means more room for your knees, so you can cycle normally. Downsides are it's only recommended up to 15Kg/110cm, which'll be sometime between 3 and 4 years and it's quite expensive new.
We've had great fun with this seat.

I had a front mounted full bucket seat - like the ones on the back in toys19 photos, but between bars and saddle. Found I couldn't reach the bars without my boy having to bend his neck forward uncomfortably. Figured it probably needed a very large frame and a very tall rider to make room.

Got one of the Leco ones to try but not fitted it yet cos none of my bikes currently have suitable top tubes to fit it to.
