pediatrician.
• Ensure that it is not possible for any part of
the child's body or clothing to come into
contact with any moving part of the seat or
cycle and to re-check as the child grows, due
to the danger of entrapment of feet in the
wheel and of the finders in brake mechanisms
and sprung saddles. The child seat gives good
side and feet protection. However, you are
recommended to buy and fit a closed wheel
guard/chain guard. You can buy this at your
bicycle dealer.
• Check there are no sharp objects, such as split
wires, on the bicycle that can harm the child.
• Ensure that the restraint system is not loose
or able to become trapped in any moving
parts particularly the wheels, including when
the cycle is ridden without a child in the seat.
• Always use the safety belt/restraint system,
