The Radish features in a mini writeup online. Many uninformed comments then give the big dis. I wanted to alert roots rads because it's a good opportunity to...
I have rode an x for years and absoultely love it! My wife and I just had a baby and I was woundering if anyone had made there own infant carrier. I was...
Unless you've got a rear suspension, I'd be hesitant. Once my kid got big enough to hold her head up, I felt a lot more flexible, but until then, I affixed an...
George, I concur with everyone’s assessment about carrying an infant. You might inadvertently cause shaken-baby syndrome to your precious one while just ...

Dad of four here, and I agree: you really want to ride your bike with the new one, but it's probably best to wait a bit. When you do start riding, take it...
We put my second child in a Burley within his car seat, from about 6-9 months, then he joined his sister in the pea pods thereafter. On Nov 21, 2012, at 9:41,...
This might fit under the category of "obvious answers to dumb questions", but how do you generally work on your Xtracycles? I'm guessing because of where the...
A good solid stand can take an xtracycle. I have a Park PCS-1 which is an older "home mechanic" model and it supports my xtra which weighs in around 45 lbs....
I concur, I have the older version of the Park stand as well. It is a bit of a chore to get it up on the stand but works just fine. I too have used it for my...
I guess the key is being sensible too and removing unnecessary items like the deck, load bars, running boards, etc. Basically everything that weighs down the...
I have been very adventurous with all 3 of my kids on bikes, to the disagreement of some folks who do not gel with my philosophy. I would add a different...
The reality is, for most stuff you do not need a stand if you have a good center kickstand like the kickback. The front wheel is off the ground for front end...
I totally second the front seat! I used a bobike mini for my son. It was great. He and I could interact, he had the best view of all, bike balance stayed...
Definitely agree the bobike mini is great once they are big enough. But if they are too small to go in a front seat they really should not be wearing a helmet!...
When mine were little I strapped the carseat right into the Burley trailer. Worked great. Don't remember how old they were when I first did this. I don't think...
I use a good workstand with my Big Dummy. For most things it is OK to raise the bike but let the front wheel stay on the ground--the angle doesn't matter. The...
I have heard of a bike shop in an old barn, which uses rope nooses tied to the wooden rafters. I believe one attaches to the seat and another to the...
Speaking from experience the rope idea is much better in principle than practice. Before I bought a proper purpose built stand I did a rafter suspended...
I have a Big Dummy. For maintenance work I remove the wideloaders, etc. and hang it from the ceiling via the bike lift, where it is normally stored anyway. For...
Title says it all. I'd like a tire that can handle some off-road/gravel/hard-pack/maybe some mud, but which will also be fairly low rolling resistance on the...
I like Schwalbe Big Apples, but they be too slick or pricy for your tastes (but they're really nice). If you have not already laid out the money for the...
