WeeRide Kangaroo Child Bike Seat
WeeRide Kangaroo Child Bike Seat
The WeeRide Kangaroo center-mounted bike seat offers an award-winning design that makes biking with your child much safer and much more fun. It’s installed onto virtually any bicycle via a patent pending, independent steel support bar that attaches between the front handle bar tube and the seat post. It provides a much more enjoyable and interactive experience for the child and rider. Your child’s needs can be heard, seen and attended to more easily, and he or she has a more interesting view–no more staring at someone’s back. Other advantages include no dangling arms or legs to reach wheels and the rear of the bike is free to carry your gear.
The seat is made from an injection-molded plastic form, and it features a comfortable padded foam seat, height adjustable foot cups, and a fully adjustable three-point security harness. The Padded pedestal armrest sitting atop the handlebars gives children somewhere comfortable to put their hands, and can serve as a headrest for the napping toddler.
The steel support bar is an independent support system that does not interfere with brake cables or other attached bicycle gear. It includes different sizes of plastic spacers for the front yoke attachment and rear seat post to protect the posts and ensure it fits on almost any recreational bicycle available. It’s easily removable for when you want to ride on your own.
It can be used with mountain/city bikes with upright handlebars (with drop-handled racing handlebars, the rider leans forward too much for the child to sit comfortably). Children should be at least 1 year old, and it has a maximum weight capacity of 40 pounds. This bike seat is designed for casual riding on smooth, flat, paved and dry surfaces free of sand, gravel or dirt.

WeeRide Kangaroo Child Bike Seat Reviews
I had been looking for a seat for my 3 year old son. He is 37 inches tall and weighs about 34 pounds. First, I ordered the Wee-ride co-pilot and my husband installed it on my bicycle (26″ Women’s Schwinn Tornado). It installed fine but was a little wobbly and my son was a little small (and nervous) on the seat. I found the Kangaroo Bicycle seat and after reading the reviews, ordered it. It took about 5 minutes max to install. My son and I have ridden using the seat a few times now and we LOVE it! It is comfortable for him, my knees don’t hit (I am 5′4″)and my center of gravity is fine. Also, I have plenty of room to see over his head and I can talk to him as we are riding. I would recommend this seat to those who are looking around.
i did a lot of research on this seat, i went to 2 bike stores and they both told me it sounded like a poor design. My son is 2 3/4 yr. old and weighs mabe 33-34 pounds and is on the taller side for his age. i’m 5′2″ and put this seat on a womens 26″ mt. bike. I suppose u have to have your knees splayed slightly to accomadate for the seat positioning, however i really don’t notice at all. not uncomfortable. slightly more difficult to go up hill, i wouldn’t try biking up a mt. with this seat but little hills are ok. my son can sit up straight, but prefers to lean forward and hold on to the front thing. once he fell asleep on it. that i guesse was an issue. very uncomfortable for me, his head was rested on the front, but kept sliding to one side so i had to kind of support his head on the front part while trying to ride and that stunk! but really, i just don’t let him go to sleep on it anymore, but the communication is excellent, he looooves it. i loooove it. i get a lot of compliments. i’m so happy i didn’t get the one that goes in back. the seat belt is a little chinsey, but i made it work with some safety pins and peices of fabric i found
. not a huge deal.hmm… over all experience, totally awesome. oh yeah, and my balance is vertually perfect, can ride with one hand easy.
