steering efficiency of the bicycle. Do not use a sprung saddle if you are carrying
a child in a child seat mounted behind the saddle, otherwise the child’s fingers
could be squashed.

distance will be significantly increased. Adjust your riding style accordingly.
Not all bicycles with suspension systems are suitable for carrying child seats.
Check the fixing possibilities or consult a specialist workshop. Incorrectly
mounted child seats can lead to severe accidents.
Observe the maximum permissible weight of the bicycle and the maximum
permissible load of the carrier (see chapter ”Permissible carrier load”, page 45),
