Help please Carrier
Hi there ,
Hope someone can help, I am looking for a child/ carrier Seat to fit on my ride ( 1960s Moulton Deluxe) the thing is i dont want some sort of plastic fantastic high back affair, im looking for an old fashioned metal short back and fold flat version. that way i can make the fold it flat for a good sprint on my own but still ferry my 5 year old around. Ive had a good look on the web but to no avail. Any help would be GREATLY apreciated. Rob Draycott |

I now have nearly 5 years of experience with all sorts of child
transport devices. One thing I have learned is that the rear mounted carriers are really unpleasant to ride with -- stability and handling of the bike are compromised -- and that is when the child is not leaning or wiggling. In contrast, a trailer has no effect upon bike handling. Except on a hill, there is no ondication that it is there -- the bike feels absolutely normal. Also, if you are travelling with a child you are usually also carrying the stuff that goes with the child. This includes bib, eating utensiles, and colorung books/crayons (restaurant), books, lunchbox (school), or umbrella, chairs, blankets, sunlotion (beach). The trailer is very good for this. Paul |
