Hamax Caress Rear Child Bike Seat - Frame Mount, Ultra-Shock Absorbing, Adjustable to Fit Kids (Baby-Toddler) 9 mo-48.5lb.

Installation proved pretty simple after playing around with the seat and assembly and reconciling the pictures in thr manual to the product. Once installed, making the size adjustments for my son was incredibly easy. He rides comfortably and safely and the quick release feature is great as we are using it on multiple bikes and I was able to get a second bracket for ~$40 to keep on the second bike, so can switch it between the two with ease.

We love this seat for my toddler. It is very adjustable and feels secure and sturdy on the bike.

I was on the fence on which toddler bike seat to purchase, and the Hamax ended up being the best purchase. It was much easier to set up than I expected and is very sturdy. My daughter helped me put it together, and she loved the ride. It's a bit of a change getting used to having a toddler on the back of the bike, but once you get used to the change in weight distribution, you don't even remember it's back there. I like that there is a little more space between the bottom of the chair and the back wheel, allowing for a little more give when going over bumpy terrain without worrying about the bottom of the chair scraping the wheel. this was a great purchase, we will get a lot of use out this bike seat!

So far so great! Love the boxing of the product and how ready for install it was. Install was relatively quick. Material and texture felt nice. Picked ul our child (2.5yo) from daycare in it after installation and he had a blast! Highly recommend. Only thing I wish is that the weight limit can be a bit higher, given the pricing and how fast kids grow, outside of that no complaints!

Can’t go wrong with Hamax as far as I know, and that’s true of this child seat as well. My 3-year old son has been riding on this for the past half year, and will be able to keep riding it for years to come! The seat is nice and secure, and both protective and comfortable for the kid. It’s also adjustable to fit different size racks which is a bonus. I would easily buy this product again!

I ride road bikes and use a 60cm frame and this child seat meets my needs. I do not get heel strikes while pedaling, unlike rack mounted designs from Thule. Did not bother with their frame mounted design because other riders mentioned heel strikes. Product is easy to install and straight forward to meet the installation guidelines recommended by the manufacturer: height above the tire and distance away from rear axle. Doing this is the hardest part of the installation, I used an improvised plum bob to measure distance from the calibration mark on the seat to my rear axle.My only complaint comes from watching a video of my riding when there is a kid in the seat. With a child in the seat, it sways when making tight turns. I suspect this can be mitigated by getting a frame mounted seat or purchasing something additional. I had no idea the seat swayed until I saw a video and I had ridden several miles prior to seeing the video. If you have ridden with cargo in panniers, there is no difference in the ride.My kid and I enjoyed our first ride. More to come. Thanks for a good and useful product.

Nice carrier looks well made, BUT the latch that holds the child in is soo cheesy and hard to release so I gave 3 stars instead of 5 because someone dropped the ball when designing that push button latch. If it is to difficult to unlatch my kiddo I will be returning this carrier

Confortable, easy to install, one of the few seats on the market that can hold 22kilos toddlers.
