HAMAX Child seat holder

Product Information

You may not feel the cold as you’re pedalling, but an inactive passenger in cold wind or rain needs to be wrapped up and protected. The seat can be attached by just one person relatively easily, and it can be moved from one bike to another, too. Other possible options are gravel bikes and touring bikes, which are designed to carry the extra weight of bike luggage, including pannier bags mounted on a rear rack and top tube bags. Getting out with your child for a bike ride is one of the most rewarding things a cycling Mom or Dad can do, and fortunately, the bike industry knows this.

This is the only frame-mounted seat that we know of that can be mounted on a frame with exterior wires. Some fit to your bike’s down tube and support the seat body on a metal frame that hangs out above the rear wheel. Many child bike seats can certainly be used on taller riders within the weight limit, but with the Caress seats, the rubber tops of the shoulder straps don’t flex enough to comfortably accommodate taller riders as well as other seats do (like the Thule RideAlong as seen below). In fact, we’ve learned from talking to other parents that the rack mounted version of the Hamax Caress is one of the few seats that will mount on the Radpower Radwagon, for instance.For the very youngest children (say 6-12 months old), a trailer is often the way to go for comfort and safety.

The Hamax Kiss Child Bike Seat is a rear seat which is easily and secured to your bike using the inclusive quick-release bracket.Late or missing payments may have serious consequences for you and cause you serious money problems. Since a helmet is heavy, make sure their head is well supported and the angle of the seat is such that, if they fall asleep, their head will loll back rather than forward or to the side.

We were able to solve this issue by sliding the saddle on one bike further up on its rails, and by raising the seat on another bike.

However, any competent bike Mom or Dad should feel comfortable riding with their child in the Caress. As with a rear seat, keeping your child’s fingers and feet out of the wheel is important too, so the seat is often mounted high up. Cycle to Work is a salary sacrifice scheme, where you can save up to 42% off a new Bike and Safety equipment. It’s therefore definitely worth taking a lot of care with this bike seat, as it may not be quite as robust as the pricier models. We appreciate that you only need one hand to execute, and also that the soft rubber strap molds well to your child’s foot to keep it more securely in place.
