Could this rack be used to mount a child seat?

This rack is not strong enough to mount a child seat. It does work well for small lightweight items. I like mine for that purpose.

I don't see why it couldn't. The bikes no matter what kind are held up in this setup at least typically by the front tire. I think this mount is also weighted for up to 50 pounds. So you'd have to get some good screws, and find a stud within the wall. But yes, mens.. womens.. childrens bikes should be fine all around, within the constraints.

It might depend on how high you can put the seat on the adult bike. If you keep your seat low, the connector would hit the rack. If you can put the seat higher, it MIGHT work, though I haven't tried with a rack.

It will mount fine with the front rack. For the rear rack, the bars are too short and it would clamp onto the plastic area with the small triangle on the bottom. It is doable with a longer bolt and secure if you put longer bolts in the back.

I was able to mount mine and my daughter's without a problem. I love this bike rack. Best thing we have bought in a long time.

Yes, definitely. We've fit 2 adult, 2 kid (16" and 20") and 1 toddler (12"?) bike on the rack. Looks kind of funny with the training wheels and all but it works. Some trial and error required but it works.

It depends on how high your seatpost is--the bike attaches to seatpost, so if you are tall, you might be able to keep the rack on (depending on how long it is). THere is about 8.5" of clearance on mine between my tire and the post for the wee rider. I could see a rack being there, although it would really be usable.

Yes. This was gifted to me a month ago and I have ben taking my 6 year old everywhere with it. We jerry-rigged a flag on the back so we can be seen over rolling hills. Th bike mounts are modular, and should fit just about anything (mine is on a Surly Long Haul Trucker).

I already had an Eco Rack on my granddaughters' bike and it is as sturdy as the description says. I cannot say about any specific application, but its' mounting system seems to be quite adjustable for different situations.

Cody, I would definitely say yes. The rack is very sturdy but it's light as well. Excellent product. We're quite satisfied.

Hello,I think mounting the support arms opposite of the picture would work. You may also have to flip the grid over.The rack is finished on all sides so you wouldn't have to worry about the look either.

I don't think so--at least not easily. The rails underneath the seat mount to a round seat post using a clamping device. From your description it seems like you would have to modify the top plate on your post to accept the seat and a standard clamp. But to verify, maybe just take a look at a bike that has a removable clamp --if u think you can attach the clamp to your post then it would work. You'll just need to buy the clamp.

Not on your existing rack. It mounts onto a special rack that it's provided with the seat.

You could, but you'd have to find a way to keep it firm. The rack itself is solid, but the bike is suspended in two heavy plastic grooves. It can swing from side to side gently.

It could , be sure to use the wall mounts so it will be more secure. Also we put a piece of plywood to even out our child's weight

I don't think so. A rack would work better and would be a lot less expensive.

Yes, it can. You have to adjust the bike on the rack, but the durable nylon straps will hold the bike on the rack...
