Child Bike Seat from Thule – A safe and comfort journey on the road

Thule Child Bike Seat – Safe, Secure and Comfort

Thule introduces a Child Bike Seat with smart and intuitive installation, increased child safety & comfort and easy to use for adult as part of the new Thule Active with Kids category”

I would love to go on my bike in summer and so as my kids. And a bike seat like this means a family time together.

Bringing the kids along for a bike ride just got easier with the introduction of the new Thule RideAlong Child Bike Seat. The seat is probably the easiest to install in the market, increased comfort gives a safer ride for the kid and is the most convenient and easy Child Bike Seat to use for the parent.

The Thule RideAlong is a part of Thule’s new Active with Kids category.

The Thule RideAlong´s quick release bracket is the easiest and quickest bracket to install on a bike on the market. This is thanks to the bracket being mounted with bolts from the front where there is plenty of room to use an ‘Allen key’. Most brackets from other child bike seats are mounted with bolts from the rear where there is limited space. When the bracket is mounted the seat clicks into position and is ready to be used in seconds.

The Thule RideAlong is the only seat on the market offering a padded harness with no sharp edges against the child’s neck. This in combination with the soft, premium padding and the easy adjustment possibilities of the harness height and foot rests ensure the child sits comfortably in the seat and ultimately for a safer experience.

It is common to lean the bike against a wall when placing the child in a bike seat. The Thule RideAlong offers, as the only child bike seat on the market, integrated protection wings that safeguard the child’s hands. The protection wings create a distance between the wall and the child’s hand reducing the risk of the child´s hand getting squeezed.

Last, but not least, the Thule RideAlong is the most convenient and easy seat to use for the parent. Examples of this is that all adjustments of the seat are simple one hand operations, the padding and harness are easy to remove and machine washable, and the quick release bracket is lockable for theft protection.
