 Dangerous mounting hardware 2010-03-12 |
| By Gerardo Davila (Mexico City, MEX) |
When I saw this baby seat on Amazon I got very excited. Riding with my baby between my arms with both of us watching the road ahead seemed like a lot of fun. Plus, all the customer reviews reassured me this was the best I could get.
However, once I got it I noticed the mounting hardware, particularly the stinger -- a 7-inch steel bar where the seat slides for mounting/dismounting -- would represent a lot of trouble.
Sure enough, once installed the stinger sits right in front of you and it simply is too dangerous to have a 7-inch steel bar pointing at you when you ride. You just won't be able to use your bike without the baby seat on.
This is a serious disadvantage over back-mounted baby seats which can easily be dismounted for riding solo.
I hope new prospective buyers find this information useful. |
 Love it! Way better than our rear seat. 2010-03-07 |
| By M. Clark (Minnesota) |
When our daughter was 10 months old, we got a well rated rear seat for my bike (a Jamis Coda). While the seat was comfortable for baby, it was frustrating to me because I couldn't use a rear rack, and with her on the back and a loaded basket on the front, the bike felt really off balance. Plus, she was right behind me, and her view was really hindered by my back. And she'd kick me in the rear if I didn't strap her legs in (which I wasn't crazy about doing).
I ordered the Ibert, got it on my bike in less than five minutes, and took her for a ride. Right away, I noticed how much more stable my bike felt. I will be able to put a rack and panniers on the back and actually run errands by bike. As soon as we took off, my daughter was ringing the bell and waving at people out and about.
The straps aren't the absolute best (hard to get to stay on her shoulders) but she is very secure in the seat when I consider the straps, the crossbar, and how little wiggle room she has under the handlebars. My bike is also set up with wide, swept back handlebars, which work fantastic with the seat. I don't have to lean over her at all like I might have to do if I had flat bars.
I did have to lower my saddle a bit so that I could put a foot down when stopped. I don't have enough room to get off of the saddle and stand between the Ibert and the saddle at a stoplight. It was an easy solution that was far less awkward than I anticipated.
All in all, I LOVE the Ibert, and the benefits far outweigh some of the small compromises we made to use it. I'd highly recommend swapping out for a nice wide, albatross style handlebar to be more comfortable like we have. |
| Excelente hasta los 2 años 2010-03-06 |
| By Felipe Darrigrandi (Chile) |
Me encantó esta silla. Es tal cual como dicen en las revisiones. MUY fácil de instalar y muy fácil de sacar para andar sin ella. Mi hijo que tiene 11 meses disfruta mucho cada paseo. se relaja mucho. Otra característica de la silla es que se puede usar en bicicletas de doble suspensión!!! esta es una característica que la mayoría de las sillas traseras no permite lo cual no obliga a tener una 2a bicicleta. Sin embargo hay que tener cuidado con ciertas cosas:
1) cuando se quedan dormidos se tienden a caer hacia el lado o hacia atrás.
2) cuando se saca la silla y queda el soporte hay que tenr cuidado con las rodillas en las curvas.
Recomendación: si el niño es grande y el casco también pueden llegar a topar tu cuerpo cuando estás andando y tender a mover hacia adelante el casco del niño y que no vea. Obviamente con eso no disfruta el paseo. Lo ideal es poder comprarle un casco más bien pequeño o no muy aparatoso.
Resumen: una maravillosa silla para niños hasta los 2 años que se puede usar en practicamente todas las bicicletas mountainbike. Con unos pequeños cuidados puede ser una experiencia perfecta. |
| Perfect for mom of shorter stature 2010-02-28 |
| By N. Hogan (Miami, FL USA) |
| This seat was absolutelty perfect. I am 5'2 with a cruiser made for a junior girl, so it's smaller than the regular cruisers. This bike was perfect, I could barely tell the difference with my son on it. I must also say, my son is on the larger side. We also moved it to my husbands mountain bike and it was also perfect. I highly recomend this bike to everyone! |
| Awesome seat and simple to take on and off as needed 2010-02-23 |
| By K. Mason |
I had been looking for a kids bike seat for our 10 month old and after reading all the positive reviews, decided to give the ibert a try. I have only used a few times but so far, this is a truly awesome child seat.
It is so very easy to install and you can take on and off in less than 5 minutes. I have used it on my Gary Fisher mountain bike and it works great. I can easily interchange it as needed to my wife's Trek hybrid.
The best part is how great it rides. With all the extra weight on the handle bars you barely even notice it being there. I couldn't believe how well it rode and handled.
The only downside at all is if you are tall (6'2) like me, you may touch the seat with your knees when pdealing so I had to slightly adjust my knee position when pedaling.
And of course most of all she loves being right up front and being able to see everything. She laughs, smiles and waves the whole time. Try it, you won't regret it! |
