[Squiggle]

This thing looks amazing, transport for parent and child.

Comes in a twin and other chair configurations are possible. Marginally cheaper than an old banger. Can't imagine braving Dublin traffic on it though.

Not just yet, came across it while looking at something else and thought the parents of thumped might be interested.

its got no lights, reflectors etc, making it madly dangerous and illegal.

That's what I was thinking, but their website says it meets all the safety standards for bikes AND strollers. I suppose you could attach lights. Baby/toddler-as-bumper seems a bit off to me. But then, I see people use buggies to stop traffic all the time in a 'push-baby-into-road-cars-will-stop' manner. Terrifying.

ah by law here your supposed to have lights and reflectors among other things, so they probably only covered for the local area. i think its cool though, the basket 'future model' would be cool for tescos.

Surely you only need lights if you're cycling in the dark?

i know, just legally speaking bikes are supposed to have them and reflectors, like sorta the same if you've a car with no lights and say you only drive it in daytime. i've read before though, in a book about being a cycling nerd that if you need lights to cycle at night then you really shouldn't be cycling at night.

Hoho, the author of that book obviously lives in a city
