Kids Bike Seat Checklist

Checklist For Child Bike Seats

Requirements
  • Your toddler must be at least 9 months old and able to sit freely
  • You as the driver – for example, as the older sister – must have reached the age of sixteen.
  • If you want to ride your infant in a front seat, it must not weigh more than 15 kg .
  • A rear seat is suitable for children weighing more than 15 kg .
Safety
  • A 3-point seat belt with child restraint must be available as a minimum.
  • A 5-point belt is even better, especially for slender children.
  • The buckle must not be able to be opened by your child.
  • The legs and feet are ideally protected along the entire length by a plastic surround. This prevents trouser legs or shoelaces from getting into the spokes.
  • It must be possible to adjust the height of the footrest and secure the feet themselves with straps.
  • With front seats, steering is limited and your child is less protected in the event of a frontal collision. The turning circle is larger. Driving stability is better because the center of gravity is further forward.
  • With rear seats, you cannot see your child, but your handlebars are more flexible. Your child is better protected in frontal accidents. The center of gravity is further back. As a driver, you have to get used to this.
Comfort
  • The padding should be removable and washable .
  • The harness should be adjustable in height through special harness slots and have good padding .
  • The back should have ventilation slots to prevent heat buildup in the summer.
  • The headrest should be adjustable in height.

FAQ About Children Bike Seats

Bicycle seat: from when?

In any case, your child must already be able to sit independently if it is to ride on your bike. You should also pay attention to what the manufacturer recommends (also: weight) and not start the bike ride before the 9th month of life.

Bicycle seat for baby: from when?

Your little darling must be at least 9 months old if he or she is to ride on your bike. Often, however, this may still be too early, because each child develops individually and an important prerequisite for riding in a child seat is that the baby can sit freely. In addition, always check the manufacturer’s specifications and the specific instructions for the product.

How long can a child ride in a bicycle seat?

There is a fixed regulation on this, which you can also read in the StVO. There it says that your child may be taken along in the child seat up to the age of 7 at the most. The same also applies to trailers. Important to know: The driver must be at least 16 years old and the seat/trailer must of course be equipped accordingly, so that the feet of the children do not get into the spokes or other accidents happen. You should therefore always individually check the requirements and of course attach great importance to safety and the product specifications – the weight of the child plays a major role in child seats.

Rear bicycle seat: from when?

From a weight of 15 kg your child must ride on a rear seat on your bike, before that there is still the alternative of a front seat. Please have a look at our guide, there you will find all important information about this topic.

Front bicycle seat: from when?
