Re: [RBW] Re: Huge Rosco Mixte

Just a quick update for everyone. I mounted an Ursus Jumbo Double Leg Kickstand on the Mixte and so far it works extremely well. I've also ordered the Hamax Caress Rear Child Bike Seat (for rack), which arrives tomorrow, and am looking forward to it. The only bummer is that he isn't as close

I used the Yepp seat rack mounted as we had to switch between two bikes. It worked great on a Tubus. The Cheviot had the Ursus stand and it was the most steady by far. I tried lots of stands (VO, Hebie, Pletcher, Lumintrail etc) and the Ursus was the most steady for the precious cargo. I always

I used the Velo Orange porteur double kickstand on a Civia Twin City bike with a Bobike rear child seat. It was excellent. I originally used it for keeping the bike steady when loading it heavily; when I started carrying my kid on it I kept using the same kickstand. Never a problem. I also used

Hi Amit, I had a Yepp Maxi rear seat after my kids outgrew the front-mounted Yepp Mini. It was high quality, and I liked how I could easily remove the seat. (I would leave it at daycare. Without a child in the seat, I would often kick into it while mounting the bike... tough to break habits of

Mountain bike versus country bike. 2.3” to 2.4” clearance on the Huge Size Rosco Mixte. Cheviot is more like 700x45-to-50 max. Cheviot has sidepulls. This answer is not to be confused with the Rosco Medium. That one has the Appaloosa fork crown, which means clearance is more like 700x55 max.
