trying to find a child seat that fits a Hygee Vester ebike

Posted by Brondster@reddit | ebikes | View on Reddit | 9 comments

Hey there

I'm completely stumped here so wondering if anyone on here can help.

My wife has a Hygee Vester eBike, she's looking to find a way to add a childseat to it's frame so she can use it to drop off and pickup from nursery for the wee one :)

The problem is that majority of childseats for bikes clip onto the frame and the Vester has a triangular frame along with a chunky frame too.

wheel diameter is 20 inch fat tires, the back wheel is much more chunky than others and even the gears area seems alot more bigger compared to normal bikes haha

Has anyone had any luck with them fitting one on a Hygee branded ebike?

I've attached a pic of the bike to show the sizes/difficulty upon where to find a childseat that would be appropriate

Thank you kindly :)

I got a Kids Ride Shotgun Pro 2.0, it's easy to mount and can be removed in about a minute :) Just take off the handle and replace the bottom washer with the one from the child seat💪🏻

Hi. Did you find a solution to this as I’m also considering the same.

Because of the structure of the frame itself, you could look into a trailer style accessory for it but may come across the issues of which we did which is the frame is too thick for any type of add-on

A pull behind bike trailer is the only safe option for this bike. Folding bikes should never have a child carrier on them due to safety. This is especially true on these off-brand folding bikes that have a horrible tendency to snap at the hinge.

If you're looking for a good trailer though, the burley bee is excellent.

Any pull behind trailer is also going to be easy to connect and disconnect in case that's a concern.

I wouldn't really call it a off brand bike tbh, especially the £1500 price tag. If it was AliE special then by all means haha 😅

But thanks for the notice of the folding bit , she doesn't fold it down at all, sat up in the kitchen as she can't do the mechanisms haha.

Then again, are the pull trailers the same concept, are they adjustable for the bikes thick frame ?

Yes, all pull behind trailers attached basically the same way. They "hitch" to one side of the rear wheel. Frame width should not be an issue since it only connects to the non-drive side.

Will have to take a look at one.
