Hi Amit, I had a Yepp Maxi rear seat after my kids outgrew the front-mounted Yepp Mini. It was high quality, and I liked how I could easily remove the seat. (I would leave it at daycare. Without a child in the seat, I would often kick into it while mounting the bike... tough to break habits of swing a leg over the rear wheel.)
Either mount for Yepp seems to work well with steel frames. If you like the frame mount, check to see that you have enough clearance on the seat tube. I ride a much smaller frame than you, and it wouldn't work with my bike. Instead, I got the rack mount, which was fine. RE: kickstand For Riv's, I don't recommend using a kickstand for holding up the bike+kid. The kickstand mounting plates on my Rivs work fine for holding up the bike, but I don't think it can take the stress of 30+ lbs child and seat etc. Also, the weight is higher than on cargo bikes with small rear wheels (e.g., Xtracycle Edgerunner) or bakfiets. If you do want to go the kickstand route, I'd look at cargo-bike kickstands. Good luck! shoji Arlington MA On Thursday, October 3, 2019 at 1:32:38 AM UTC-4, Amit Singh wrote: > > About to put a rear kid’s bike seat on mine. > > Do you suggest frame mounted or rack mounted? > > Also, what kind of kickstand is the most weight bearing and most stable to > load / unload? > > There will be precious cargo aboard and I want to avoid any mishaps. > > Thanks in advance for your guidance! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
