Looking for the best places to buy the iBert Mounted Child Bicycle Seat? You are definitely not the only one. There are a large number of tradition stores or online sites where this front-mounted bicycle seat can be bought. However, finding great prices may be frustrating and time consuming. Thus, I wrote this article to about how to easily and quickly get really good deals.
Is the iBert Mounted Bicycle Seat Right for You and Your Child?
The iBert Mount Bicycle Seat is made with both you and your child in mind. The seat attaches to the front of the bike, leaving plenty of space for your knees and comfortably fitting your child. This allows you the freedom to continue biking along your favorite paths with no drag and without sacrificing knee space. This ultimately allows for you to comfortably and safely share the joy of bike riding with your child.
By being at the front of your bike, your child has the ability to see ahead of you. This allows for them to be able to see more of the changing landscape instead of being stuck with the view of your back. Being up front also gives another advantage to you and your child. Because your child is very close to you, you can safely interact with them. You can easily discuss the views, creating a unique and amazing learning experience that gives them the same joy you feel when bike riding. This makes the ride much more enjoyable for both you and your child, as it allows close together time, but still allows you to continue doing an activity that you enjoy doing.
Instillation of the seat is very quick and easy. A number of people who have bought this product have stated that anyone can install this seat in a mere matter of minutes. This also means that the seat can be taken off quickly and easily as needed. This means that there is no fumbling for tools to detach the seat and no time needed to convert your bike. When you are ready to go for a ride with or without your child, your bike is ready too.
Why Choose a Mounted Child Seat over a Trailer?
A mounted child seat offers a large number of advantages over trailers. These include, but are not limited to:
- There is no drag on the bike with a mounted child seat. The seat becomes part of the bike, thus making it easier to climb hills. A trailer drags behind the bike, and all the added weight makes it more difficult to pedal uphill.
- You can travel the bike paths that are inaccessible to trailers. Trailers have a more difficult time going off-roads, and bumpy terrain may create and uncomfortable ride for children riding in a bike trailer.
- Your child can enjoy more of the wonderful views. Children can see out of the sides of the trailer, but this creates a different effect on your child than riding up front and center. Riding with you also makes the child feel apart of the activity, instead of just along for the ride.
So Where can you Buy the iBert Mounted Child Bicycle Seat?
Some local bicycle shops may carry this product. Some online stores may also run discounts and coupons and some of them may have continuous low prices.
However, finding the sites that will give you the best deals may be very time consuming. Your best bet is to find somebody who knows all about finding these sites for you, not only saving you the time and trouble, but getting you and your child on your bike faster.
So to find out where you can buy the iBert Mounted Child Bicycle Seat, visit the iBert Bicycle Seat Blog. It's got some great deals listed, and will save you the time away from your child.
Transportation of the Future May Lay with E-Bikes
These new E-bikes that are becoming available will provide more advanced and in-expensive ways to get around. Whether you are site seeing, running errands or simply going back and forth to work, these bikes could become a favorite new form of transportation. We are seeing many different models, options and designs going from blueprints and prototypes to production lines and into the marketplace.
Many companies; including some major car manufacturers, are all coming out with their own Eco-friendly designed versions of E-bikes. Many have geared their designs towards finding the most practical options that will have consumers biking more and driving less. Newly advanced electric, foldable and rechargeable E-bikes are sure to create a new wave of cyclers; saving consumers money with a fuel and cost efficient way of traveling. As car-makers are trying to find their way into the environmentally friendly market, their new E-bikes may very well soon become the newest standard option included with the purchase of one of their new vehicles.
Even the MIT experts have joined in the new E-bike trend by creating their prototype of a wheel hub-cap that attaches to your bike and is planned on being marketed towards the end of this year. Their smart-hub is designed to store up energy in a rechargeable onboard battery. The battery is designed to recharge itself whenever you use your brakes and then releases that stored up energy; kicking on the electric motor whenever the hub-cap senses you are traveling uphill or struggling with your pedaling. The smart hub will also have an advanced on board communication system installed.
Volkswagen's new electric E-bike is designed to easily fold up and fit neatly into that spare tire or luggage compartment area of your car. Having one of VW's new E-bikes next to your spare is sure to offer you more flexibility, freedom and fun with your daily transportation options. Their version of the E-bike is a lightweight pedal-less electric bicycle that is expected to get 12.5 miles out of a single charge. This bike is reported to weigh less than 45 pounds (20 kilograms), has a set of 20" wheels and could have you effortlessly traveling as fast as 12.5 miles per hour. Further convenience comes with the bike being able to charge directly from your car; eliminating the hassles of worrying that it may not be ready for its next journey. These new electric bikes are ready for marketing, but there has been no mention yet of price or the actual date it will available to the public.
Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg, Volkswagen's Research and Development Chief, said this about the new E-bike:
"We have a special company within our organization that sells all kinds of products, supplementing our cars… This team is currently looking at this vehicle and is establishing a viable business case."
Style and comfort is being offered with BMW's version of its Eco-friendly mountain bike. BMW has been producing some great options and styles on motorcycles and cars for a while now and will soon enter its new M-bike into the public arena. Although this is not an electric version; nor does it offer a fold-up option; it does come with all the bells n' whistles that one expects from BMW. The M-bike offers the famous M logo, comfortable grip handles, disc brakes, a comfortable leather seat and more. The bike has been retrofitted with a total gear ratio transmission; which allows for traveling at higher speeds. BMW has not released the pricing details as of yet; but their M-bike is said to be available in June 2010.
Lexus has developed their own Eco-friendly bike version or better known as their hybrid. The Hybrid offers both a sleek and stylish design and uses pedal power to boost the 240w onboard electric motor via the 25.9 Lithium-ion battery and brake regenerating system. The Lexus hybrid E-bike was built to give the rider the choice of using regular or power modes. The Hybrid has an eight speed automatic transmission for easy transitions. All the Lexus finesse was built into this prototype and works with the same drive system in Lexus's hybrid cars. Even though this E-bike hybrid has all the makings of offering consumers a great fuel and cost efficient alternative; it has been reported that Lexus is not intending to put this hybrid design into production as of yet.
The UK Yike-Bike maker Grant Ryan has designed a unique and interesting option for consumers. The Yike-Bike was developed to be a light-weight, foldable and motorized bike alternative that would provide a realistic and easy to use option for transportation. This bike is so light-weight (just over 22 pounds or just under 10 kilos) and portable (folds up in about 15 seconds with practice) that it comes with its own over the shoulder carrying bag. This carry bag option provides the ease of not having to worry about where you are going to leave or lock-up the bike in-between stops.
This Yike-bike is nowhere near the deisgn of traditional bicycles; as it has the steering and anti-skid braking controls behind you and the pedals would be best described as foot rests. The onboard 1.2kw electric motor does all the work; generating a top speed of 13 mph. The company has estimated that a full 30 minute charge of its battery would sustain about a 5 mile (7-8 kilometers) ride. The Yike-bike has gotten street use approval in the UK, Germany, New Zealand and others; but it has not been approved for street use in the U.S. yet.
There is no question that the Yike-bike is an interesting and fuel efficient alternative form of transportation. The question is what's the price? The new Yike-bike comes with a price tag of about $4,800. The Yike-bike's design calls for an ideal height of 5 feet 3 inches; with a safe weight limit being about 220 pounds. (100 total kilos)
Which company will be the one to produce an E-bike that will prove to be the most efficient, convenient and cost effective is yet to be determined. The exciting news is that everyone is on board with trying to find the best design to move us from expensive and pollutant fuels to a cleaner, less expensive and a more sustainable alternative for transportation. Volkswagen seems to be ready to market a sure-hit with their foldable electric E-bike and it's only a matter of time, before the population can truly begin shifting over to these more advanced, consumer ready and eco-friendly technologies; which can effectively lead to reducing carbon emissions and reducing carbon based fuel dependency.

How much does it cost for all the kit that goes with a motorbike?
I live in England. I'm trying to figure out how much to budget for safety gear and kit that isn't part of a motorbike or moped.
If I do this, I'm not prepared to do the basic legal minimum. I'd like a helmet (of course), leathers, boots, gloves, and armour. I'm thinking £600-700, does that sound about right?
I'm not interested in racing 600cc bikes at silly speeds- I want to travel in a city centre or occasional link roads at 40-50mph. Traffic is too thick for a car to work, and I'm an on call doctor so public transport and walking are out.
Yes, motorbikes/mopeds are riskier than cars. But it's less risky than being on a less weighty bicycle (which is what I do now). Motorbikes can absorb impact better than bicycles, can accelerate out of danger and I'd have proper safety clothes and a better helmet than when I cycle. Please don't post stuff about the dangers. I used to work in A&E so I know full well. I'd just like polite answers to my question please.
£600-700 is right in the market to get you started. As you go along, you'll buy more for each season. Being in sunny olde England, you'll want something that keeps you dry as well as safe. If you shop around, you can get a full set of gear that will do the trick. For your budget, leather jacket and pants are out of range, but the textile stuff is actually better suited to a commuter, anyway. You can wear it over your work clothes.

Building boom at standstill, Wesley Chapel moves to shape future
On a recent evening in this Union County village, residents packed the town meeting room at the back of the Methodist church - not to wrestle with a flood of growth, as was the case five years ago, but to figure out what to do since it has stopped.
Thanks for visiting!
