Jay, I cringe every time I see a toddler in a child seat. I think the front mount type, like the Bobike, is better than the rear but I would not/did not use either. As the famous Forest Gump wisely said "&%$# HAPPENS"! A toddler in a child seat has no way to protect itself in a fall. It is a considerable distance to the pavement or the corner of a curb and their soft little noggin is going to take a major SMACK. I only put my children in a trailer. I'm not familiar with them all but I used a Burley. What distinguishes a trailer from a child's seat is that when the bike goes down the trailer stays upright. The connection between the trailer and the bike pivots. Trailers are more expensive, and they are a bit more of cumbersome, but I feel the trade off is worth it. Plus, there is a huge aftermarket for used trailers. Generally, when children out grow the trailer people sell them. Just my 0.02.
