Product Description
The iBert safe-T-seat was designed with quality and safety first. The safe-T-seat places the child up front, safely between the parent's protective arms. This evenly distributes weight over the bike giving a stable, safe ride. Kids enjoy the close interaction and the unobstructed view of the fun ahead. Mounted conveniently on the handlebar stem; the high, forward position allows you to pedal in comfort without banging your knees on the seat.
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.p 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.p 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.p 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.p 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.p strongSpecifications:/strongul liAllows interaction with your child liChild has a clear view liNo dirt, dust, rocks, or water thrown in child's face liSmall and easy to attach liEasy and safe loading and unloading of child liMaintains center of gravity liSimilar construction to rear-mounted seats liOne adult can take multiple children for bike rides liEasy assembly liFull clearance for knees liMade in the USA liRecommended for children one to four years old liMaximum recommended height is 42 inches liMaximum recommended weight is 38 pounds /ulp strongWhat's in the Box?/strongbr iBert Safe-T Front Mounted Bike Seat, Stinger Assemblyp strongManufacturer's Warranty/strongbr Two year limited warranty for manufacturer's defectsp

 Super! September 7, 2010

This is a fantastic bike seat - what a great idea. I use it a lot with my 2.5 year old. It makes me feel really stable and safe while cycling. He loves it because he is now in front and feels the breeze. I can chat with him because he is closer to me. He is very comfortable with his legs stretched out and back supported. I can take it on and off really easily. At the 38 lb weight limit, it should last a long time. Couple of things: makes sure this fits your bike - I have a Trek hybrid bike and it fit. It may not fit some of the sportier road bikes. Also, sometimes I make my son wear sunglasses especially in the evening when there are these tiny insects in the air because he is now in front of me. Everyone who sees us understands how stable this is.
Awesome product! September 2, 2010

This is the best front mount anywhere! It is so easy to put on and very sturdy! My baby loves it and crys when we take her out!

My 19-month old son loves riding in his new bike seat! I have a beach cruiser, so the handle bars are pretty wide and it's a perfect fit. I also love the front mount. Overall, great buy! I highly recommend.

Our son (19 months) loves this seat! He wants to go for a ride every time he sees it. It is nice for him to be able to see where he is going and hold onto my handlebars like he is actually riding the bike! The only complaint my husband and I have is the lack of leg room. We put a longer, more angled stem on the bike to make it more upright(we have it on a mountain bike), but we still hit our knees on the back of the ibert. We are both tall 5'10" so we have to pedal with our knees out which is uncomfortable. It might work better on a hybrid or cruiser bike. All in all it was a great purchase and we are having a lot of fun with it!

I first tried this out on a rental cruiser once with my son and he loved sitting in the front. I ended up purchasing it (although it is VERY spendy!). Works great on my inexpensive beach cruiser. My son is 16mos old now and has plenty of growing room. He always appears comfortable and usually cries when he has to get out! Definitely secure, although you need to use caution and NEVER leave your child on the bike in the seat without being next to them...they can tip over! You do not notice a change in balancing when riding, completely balanced.
