iBert Safe-T Front Mounted Child Bicycle Seat

2008-08-09T07:54:00.001-07:00

Created by parents who were disappointed with the family bicycling options available, the iBert Safe-T Front Mounted Child Bicycle seat was made to offer families the best biking experience possible in safety and comfort. This front mounted seat offers both parent and child excellent range of vision, with the opportunity to interact as they bike together. Noted for its ease of use, the seat takes just a few minutes to install and remove, and it is equally easy and safe to load and unload the child from the seat. Providing plenty of clearance for the knees so that the adult can bike with ease, the seat is positioned so that it is easy to maintain the center of gravity. This adaptable seat fits any adult bike with a minimum of 3/4 inches of clearance on the handlebar stem.

The iBert Safe-T seat was developed after its creators became frustrated with the available bike seat options for children. They found that bike trailers kept their kids uncomfortably far away from them, got too hot in the sun, and only provided a limited view out to the children. The rear-mounted seats presented similar problems. The kids had a limited view and it was difficult to interact with them. Additionally, the balance of the bike was off and it was not easy to load and unload the kids. Other front mounted seats were complicated to hook onto the bike and difficult to remove. These seats also did not allow knee clearance for biking, and as a result were not comfortable.

The iBert Safe-T seat offers a variety of safety and comfort advantages compared to other child bike seat options. The iBert Safe-T seat allows you to maintain control of the bike when loading and unloading your child. To load and unload the child, you simply straddle the bike and lift the child into or out of the seat. When using the iBert seat you can always see what your child is doing and you can make sure that your child is safe and comfortable at all times. The center of gravity in the iBert seat is closer to the center of the bike making it easier to control the bike as you ride. The seat sits higher on the bike and is smooth on the bottom so that even tall riders rarely brush the bottom of the seat with their knees and if they do they just glide along the smooth edges on the bottom.

The iBert Safe-T seat is easy to install. The patented stinger assembly attaches to any bike with a minimum of 3/4 inches on the handle bar stem. The stinger system attaches to the bike in just two minutes and the seat can then be attached and detached from the stinger in 15 seconds. If you buy additional stinger assemblies the seat can be attached to multiple bikes.

The iBert Safe-T seat is made in the U.S.A. with safety and quality as the main objectives. While the iBert Safe-T seat is designed to meet all 1625-00 standards, at this time ASTM 1625-00 is written for rear child carriers not front mounted seats.

Customer Review: Not enough clearence
I have the same issue that the other one star reviewers have. While the seat seems promising, there just isn't enough clearance between the back of the seat and the bike seat if the bike seat is adjusted correctly. If you're seat is adjusted correctly you should not be able to put your feet flat on the ground while sitting on the seat. This makes it very difficult to ride with the child seat installed. You either need to lower the bike seat or lean considerably when stopped. For those who like to have their bike seat very low, this seat seems like it would be a lot of fun. It is very sturdy and easy to install. However, it is almost impossible to have the bike adjusted for an adult rider and have the seat installed correctly.
Customer Review: FANTASTIC! but unsafe shoulder straps
We all love this bike seat, my husband, me , and especially our daughter. It is great in every way, easy to install, comfortable and fun for the baby, comfortable for the adult, and easy to take off. BUT, and I think this is a kind of important but, the shoulder straps are set to far apart, so that she is not really securely straped in. They slide of and just don't hit her shoulders in the right spot. Maybe it's just my daughter, but I really don't think so....other than that we LOVE it.

Propane Camping Stoves Are a Great Choice

A camping stove is an important piece of camping gear needed while going on a holiday. However, there are many factors to be considered before purchasing the stoves as they come in a wide range of shapes, sizes and prices. The choice of the camping stoves majorly depend on the choice of fuel as these they are made to use particular fuels and each fuel has its good points and bad points depending on the situation. Let us first take the example of the propane camping stoves.

A special kind of camping stove is found in the form of marine alcohol electric stove. It uses shore power, when dockside and alcohol, when underway. Other special stoves available are the camp chef stoves that come with proper cooking utensils and thus offer the perfect outdoor cooking kit.

One more fuel used in camping stoves is canister gas which contains butane, isobutene or sometimes a blend of the two. The butane stove is mostly used in weekend backpacking, warm weather camping and bike trips. But these canisters are quite expensive and they do not work well in cold weathers.

The size of the camping stove is also a matter of consideration. If the stove is to be used for cooking the food of a single person, then the single burner small camping stove is the ultimate solution. But when it comes to family use, the best option is to use the family camping stoves. These stoves are safe in use and often come with a grill attachment. They are powered by large gas canisters. However, in most cases, people generally opt for portable camping stoves. These stoves are lightweight and particularly designed for camp use.

An important name to be mentioned in the category of camping stoves is the coleman camp stoves. They are lightweight, compact, three-burner and dual fuel stoves. They operate on coleman fuel as well as unleaded fuel. They are perfect in bringing the convenience of home at the campsites. Most of these stoves are stainless camping stoves made of rust-proof stainless steel. This ensures that the stove is going to last for many years.

Another commonly used fuel is alcohol as it is easily available and inexpensive too. The alcohol stoves are the best choice for disaster preparation kit but they burn only half as hot as stoves with other fuel.

Uniting The Community For Autism - Meet A Man Who Did Just That

Gary and his beautiful wife Lori founded the Stride-4-Autism Foundation an official non-profit group used to raise both funding and awareness for families that are dealing with Spectrum of Autism Disorders. They have helped unite the community and have brought awareness to the state with regards to Autism and continue on this mission each day, as they lead by example.

Are their efforts in vain, no not at all, in fact, their strength shines through, their commitment is making a difference; it's accumulative. Their personal sacrifice for their son and the Autism Community is catching the attention of new folks each day, with each event, fundraiser and each new personal meeting, their message, our message for Autism is reaching out.

Their son was diagnosed with Autism early on, but Lori had already realized something was not right. The Northern Nevada couple decided to do something about it, to raise funds for Autism and raise awareness too. To this day they work tirelessly for the cause; planning fundraisers, gifting monies and spreading awareness to all they meet.

Many people in our society know so little about Autism, it's truly unfortunate indeed. Sure they have heard about Autism and know it's a serious problem for the families that deal with it, but since it is out of sight to most of our society most never realize just how serious it really is. The Gary Kuhre family has gone out of their way to unite the community and raise awareness for Autism. Learn more about how you can raise awareness for Autism.
