Folks,

Anybody saw something similar to this in India?

Let me know, cause I wish really hard that I can have my daughter with me while cycling.

Found it in amazon, but shipping only to US :(

I was also looking for something like this, or will have to think on something DIY. Please let me know if you find any in India.

well i'm sure we are all aware of the indian version of this one with a baby basket in front mounted on the handlebar and supported by the fork but its very rare to see these now a days.

The one LT posted is rated astronomically up by its users on amazon; I find the amazon user ratings fairly accurate in reflecting the quality when there is a critical mass. Will be great if its available in India. As far as I searched I could not find the same item here. How I wish for an amazon.in!!. Anyways planning to pickup one in my (or the wife's) next trip to us. Too bulky (I do not think it is an assemble out thing) to request some colleague to pickup.

This comes quite close for a DIY.

This is a bike stool for babies/kids. Why not purchase one online, or you can have them customized for you by a local monoblock factory, from the same manufacturer of the chair above my post. ::beercheers

Goodluck!

Reviving an old thread - Am looking out to buy a bicycle for my office commute (Bangalore - about 8 km one way) and have decided on Rockrider 5.0. However, before buying, wanted to find out if anyone here has more info on this topic - child seats. My daughter is about 2 years old and I am sure she is going to raise a racket if she sees me riding my bicycle without having her on board. Could not get much info from the old links above.

Is there someone here who has fixed a baby seat in his bike? What is the approximate cost? Is there a baby seat that can be detached and reattached as per our convenience? And finally, how do you think a Rockrider 5.0 hold a front-bar baby seat? Any info is appreciated!
