Just follow our simple 2 step buying guide! We know how to help because we've used all of these child bike seats with our own kids!
STEP 1: Determine what type of child bike seat you prefer.
1. Front mounted
2. Rear mounted
3. Mid-mounted (MTB)
STEP 2: Check your bike for compatibility (Don’t skip this step! Not every child bike seat fits on every bike!)
Compatibility is a major issue and is the result of most negative reviews on baby bike seats. But if you take a close look at your bike BEFORE you make your final decision, we can increase the odds that the child bike seat will fit on your bike when it arrives at your door.
Compatibility is different depending on the style of seat you choose in STEP 1, but we'll take you through every step! It can seem overwhelming, but we've simplified the process so you can shop with confidence and get riding with your toddler in no time!

great video! so much nuance involved. What about foldable bicycles though? Any thoughts about the suitable child seat? thank you!
We have not tried any bike seats on foldable bicycles. We recommend reaching out to the bike manufacturer for their opinion on safety and fit.
This video is super useful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this! Quick question, what is the rear rack used in your video? I'm considering getting the Thule Yepp Maxi, but not sure what rear rack to get?
Ours is an Axiom rack. Buying a rack for a child bike seat is tricky because child bike seat manufacturers will not tell you which racks are compatible… Why not? Because the rack manufacturers don’t want the liability and won’t say that their racks are compatible with child bike seats. It’s a bit crazy. We have been successful with just ensuring that the racks we use have appropriate weight limits to include the seat and the child.
@@Twowheelingtotsbikes Thank you! Yes, its been very frustrating finding the right rack for this Thule child seat. Although Thule has their own rack on their webpage, but I saw bad reviews on it, mainly due to difficult installation and missing parts.
my city cruiser already has a rack on it. Will that work for a rear rack mount toddler seat?
Quite possibly! So you know the weight capacity of the rack?
5:55 everything
For mid mounted seat. How much distance from handle to seat tube do I need? Or is it 20” the same with front mounted?
This will depend on the seat. Which one are you looking at?
@@Twowheelingtotsbikes I have a step thru ebike from RAD (this one radpowerbikes.ca/products/radcity-step-thru-electric-commuter-bike ) and planning to buy the Do Little mid mount seat for my 3 years old boy.
i want to buy one but damn seems like so much effort to find if it fits or not
That really is the hardest part of buying a child bike seat. But we promise it’s worth it!
