Amazon.com Product Description
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.

Customer Reviews

Does the job
Because I had a mountain bike with a sports suspension, I had difficulty finding a seat that would mount to my bike. This fit easily and was easy to install. The only downside is that the seat itself is small. My daughter is 1 1/2 years old and I can't image that she will be able to fit in it much past the age of 3.

bike seat
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! this was the biggest was of money it was such a pain to put on having to take you bike apart to do it it says for up to 30 or 40 pounds you'll be lucky if one of you childs stuff dolls will fit i would not recomend this to anyone

Great way to share a bike ride!
Our daughter (14 mos) loves going for bike rides thanks to the WeeRide. She has a great view and we can talk while riding. I like that the location of the seat doesn't alter the balance / center of gravity and that the seat easily moves from one bike to another (we bought a second mounting bar). The only drawback is that you can't stand while pedaling, but otherwise it doesn't interfere with regular pedaling.
