Best Bike Seat Ever
Had one stolen with a Mt. bike 26" wheel, Large frame, and replaced it with exactly the same Yepp Maxi ocean blue! pros - safe for kids 20-45 Lbs.; easy seat add-on only removal with full locking mechanism. cons - the iron frame that mounts to your bike is almost 2 times heavier than the seat clip-on with 5 point harness that goes with it - truly can't be mounted on a too light weight of a a bike, as the rider can totally loose control of the bike. overall - heavier load is still well worth the safety assurances you get with using this seat note - as with ALL bike seats check with you local certified bike shop mechanic first, which bikes/types is this product applicable to, as it's really not meant for the bike types of 4 folks rating this product with 1 star 3-4 years ago, after wanting it to work for them way too bad - reviewers' revenge.

Poor Documentation of Compatibility
Wasn't compatible with canti brakes, incompatible with top pull front derailleur, incompatible with frame geometry, and when mounted, the seat tilted forward. The concept needs refinement. It's pretty upsetting considering the cost.

good seat but could be improved
we used this for our son from 11 months-4 years (recently updated to a running board-style cargo bike). I think this is one of the best options available for this kind of seat but leaving these suggestions in hopes that certain features could be improved upon in future versions: -could use a chest level clip (and possibly some kind of detachable headrests on either side, or some kind of recline option?) because my son inevitably fell asleep on the way home from every outing. his head would waggle around, drop forward, and then his shoulders would work their way loose from the straps. I have ridiculous photos of all the different ways we tried to invent diy solutions to this problem -We used both the standard rack adapter and the extra-long rack adapter on a standard rack, and neither was ideal. Both add a decent amount of weight (We live in NYC and lug our bikes up 3 flights of stairs). I actually ended up busting the welds on 2 different racks after long term use, commuting with a kid plus loaded panniers.

Great Product - Doublecheck you have the right one
My son first started using this at 9 months and he's 2.5 and still loves it. Sturdy and safe. There are two versions of this seat - this one for frame mount and the "Easy Fit" for rack mount. It's not completely clear which one is which but this is the frame mount so make sure you're buying the right one. We love it!

Not safe
I've had a Yepp Maxi seat for a bit less than a year and a half. This morning the belt came off when tightening - luckly not while biking. This construction doesn't seem safe and I'm surprised that it's legal in my country. The bike stands inside over night and is generally not exposed to sun light or anything else, that could weaken the material. Do not buy this.

Great seat but the clamp will wreck your frame
We bought this to take our son out on rides. I installed it exactly as directed, even used a torque wrench to make sure nothing was over tightened. We used it maybe a dozen times for short rides and it seemed to be getting looser. Took the clamp off and the seat tube of the bike is completely deformed. If you're okay with that, I'd recommend it, but don't mount this to a bike you love with a bigger child/toddler because the bike will be permanently damaged. Save your bike and just get a rack mounted one or a trailer instead.

There should be an adapter to put this on a bike r
Absolutely no reason to not make an adapter so that the frame-mounted version can be put on a bike rack. Some people have bikes where the frame Mount works better as well as bikes where the rackmount works better. now I have a kids bike seat that can only fit one of my bikes and not the other two. Gets two stars because it does work great as long as it fits on the bike.
