The seats scare me for a lot of reasons, not least of which is if the bike goes over, so does the kiddo. I still think about the toddlers with closed head injuries I treated during my pediatric physical therapy rotation.
Getting on and off the bike with the kid in the seat can be a real challenge. Holding the bike steady while putting the kid in the seat or getting them out of the seat can get hairy.
Kid can't move much in the seat, and can't bring toys juice riding buddy, etc.
Kid is as unprotected as you from bugs, dirt, wind, rain, sun.
Kid's view is pretty limited.
Just things to think about.
(while you're getting that silly restocking fee waived and buying the bike you love! Don't be afraid to tell them they pressured you into buying the bike you didn't really want.)
