Share the ride and help your young co-pilot fall in love with mountain biking.
The Kids Ride Shotgun Child Bike Seat + Handlebar Combo puts your child up front where they can see the trail, hold on and be part of the ride. Designed for children aged 2–5 years and up to 22 kg, it is a great way to introduce young riders to family bike adventures before they are ready to pedal the trails themselves.
Please note: This product includes the child seat and child handlebars only. Bicycle not included.

Ride Together
The front-mounted position makes it easy to talk with your child and share the experience as you ride. The included child handlebar gives smaller hands their own comfortable place to hold, helping them feel secure and involved on the bike.
Adjustable to Fit Your Bike
The Shotgun seat has adjustable width and angle settings to suit a wide range of mountain-bike frame shapes. Rubber protection is fitted across all five contact points to help protect your frame finish, while the quick-release design makes fitting and removal straightforward.

Our Thoughts
A brilliant way to make riding together more fun. Having your child in front turns a short bike ride into a shared adventure, and the quick-release setup means the bike can still be used normally once the seat is removed.
Important Setup Advice
Always check that your child can sit unaided, follow basic instructions and comfortably reach the footrests before riding. Confirm your bike and frame are compatible, install the seat exactly as instructed by Kids Ride Shotgun, and check all fittings before every ride.
