Buy iBert Safe-T Front Mounted Child Bicycle Seat - SportingGoods

Product Description: Easy and safer loading and unloading of the child, enclosed leg wells for comfort and safety, seat fits most children four years old and younger.

Amazon.com Product Description: Created by parents who were disappointed with the family bicycling options available, the iBert Safe-T Front Mounted Child Bicycle seat was made to offer families the best biking experience possible in safety and comfort. This front mounted seat offers both parent and child excellent range of vision, with the opportunity to interact as they bike together. Noted for its ease of use, the seat takes just a few minutes to install and remove, and it is equally easy and safe to load and unload the child from the seat. Providing plenty of clearance for the knees so that the adult can bike with ease, the seat is positioned so that it is easy to maintain the center of gravity. This adaptable seat fits any adult bike with a minimum of 3/4 inches of clearance on the handlebar stem.

The iBert Safe-T seat was developed after its creators became frustrated with the available bike seat options for children. They found that bike trailers kept their kids uncomfortably far away from them, got too hot in the sun, and only provided a limited view out to the children. The rear-mounted seats presented similar problems. The kids had a limited view and it was difficult to interact with them. Additionally, the balance of the bike was off and it was not easy to load and unload the kids. Other front mounted seats were complicated to hook onto the bike and difficult to remove. These seats also did not allow knee clearance for biking, and as a result were not comfortable.

The iBert Safe-T seat offers a variety of safety and comfort advantages compared to other child bike seat options. The iBert Safe-T seat allows you to maintain control of the bike when loading and unloading your child. To load and unload the child, you simply straddle the bike and lift the child into or out of the seat. When using the iBert seat you can always see what your child is doing and you can make sure that your child is safe and comfortable at all times. The center of gravity in the iBert seat is closer to the center of the bike making it easier to control the bike as you ride. The seat sits higher on the bike and is smooth on the bottom so that even tall riders rarely brush the bottom of the seat with their knees and if they do they just glide along the smooth edges on the bottom.

The iBert Safe-T seat is easy to install. The patented stinger assembly attaches to any bike with a minimum of 3/4 inches on the handle bar stem. The stinger system attaches to the bike in just two minutes and the seat can then be attached and detached from the stinger in 15 seconds. If you buy additional stinger assemblies the seat can be attached to multiple bikes.

The iBert Safe-T seat is made in the U.S.A. with safety and quality as the main objectives. While the iBert Safe-T seat is designed to meet all 1625-00 standards, at this time ASTM 1625-00 is written for rear child carriers not front mounted seats.

iBert Child Seat , two thumbs up! December 25, 2008
Easy to install and my son loves it! This is the coolest seat ever. Everywhere we go, you can hear people make comments about how neat the seat is while we are riding by. It really gives you a chance to interact with your child while riding the bicycle and you don't have to keep looking behind you to see if they are ok. I highly recommend the iBert.

Great product. Tons of fun. December 16, 2008
The iBert seat is awesome. It's great to be able to have your child sitting in front of you (securely) and enjoy the bike ride together. Much better than towing them in a burlee in my opinion. You can talk to him/her the whole time. I really enjoy going for bike rides with my daughter now. It's a blast. Worth every penny.

*NOTE - depending on your handle bars and stem it could be a tight fit. will work best on a bike that has riser bars (swoop up on either end from the center) and a stem that is angled up 10+ degrees. If you have straight bars and a zero degree stem, it may not work for you.

Absolutely a great seat. December 15, 2008
My wife bought this for me from Safe Babies Plus because they had the best price. My son loves being able to see everything & where he is going instead of staring at my back like he was with the old seat I had. I have a Specialized Mountain Bike & it is so easy to put on & take off the bike. It fits great & DOES NOT interfere with my steering. This was a great gift. I recommend this to all that ask about it.

Great Bike Seat December 14, 2008
Our 10 month old loves this seat. It's incredibly easy to install, doesn't interfere at all with your control of the bike, and gives your child a chance to see what's going on (vs. being stuck in an enclosed 'cage' behind your back tire as in a trailer, or sitting behind your back as in a rear-mounted seat.
Highly recommended.

We Love This Bike Carrier! November 23, 2008
We love this bike carrier, and it's been awesome having it. The only design flaw I would note is the placement of the shoulder strap. Because of where the strap is attached to the back of the seat, it always falls off the shoulders of my daughter. Otherwise, I would recommend this seat before any bike carrier where its placement is behind the bike seat.
