Amazon.com Product Description
Safely haul your child along whether you're cycling around town or to the grocery store with the Kettler Flipper bicycle seat. The seat is attached via Kettler's natural suspension system, which includes a universal mounting bracket that fits virtually any bicycle. Just as importantly, the seat holds your child in a comfortable, secure position thanks to the adjustable headrest and backrest and the seven-position footrest (with adjustable straps). To ensure that your child is protected at all times--even during sudden stops--Kettler added a five-point safety harness and a safety lap bar. When you arrive home, simply remove the single pull pin from the universal mount and the Flipper comes off in an instant. Other details include two removable soft-sided storage bags and a 50-pound weight capacity. Made of three-piece, injection-molded, high-impact resin, the Flipper comes with all the tools you need for installation and is backed by a three-year residential warranty.

 The most comfortable seat for your child. December 27, 2008
This seat is by far the best on the market. The seat reclines so you don't have to worry about your child's head flopping around if they go to sleep while you are riding. I have used other seats with straight backs and felt so sorry for my child! I was glad to pay the extra money to allow myself guilt-free riding. Also, I was impressed with the harness and foot straps that keep your child extra safe. Finally, a WONDERFUL feature of this seat is the fact that you can un-install it by pulling on a small knob at the seat base. If your spouse buys an extra adapter for his bike you can switch out very easily. We have bought two of these for both my children and LOVED them.
Amost a five star rating December 8, 2007

Excellent child bike seat!! I find it very safe and a confortable ride for both my 2 year old daughter and myself. The only reason I do not give it 5 stars is because of the cheap fabric that tears at the seams after the first couple of rides. Even with this issue I recommend this seat highly.

As others mentioned, the seat installation instructions are a little challenging. I spent almost 2.5 hours getting it properly installed on my Mountain bike. Installing it takes a little patience, but once installed, it has performed great. I like that you can lean it back a little bit, and the seat sides help protect him, especially while cycling passed othes. Our chlid weights ~ 20 lbs. I would buy this seat again.
Finally a Child Seat that Fits May 29, 2007

I had purchased two child bicycle seats before this one, just to find out they would not work due to an unusual mountain bike frame on my bike. After doing some reseach online it looked like the Kettler seats would be the only kind that might work. Thankfully it does, though it took a good hour or more for my husband to get it on for me. My only complaint is that I can not ride with my peddle cages, if I do my heels hit the foot rests on the seat. Other than that, I'm happy to have something to plop my 22 month old on and just go (we have a trailer, but I hate having to put it together everytime I want to take a quick ride). The seat is so easy to put on and remove when I hang my bike up while I'm not riding, or if I'm not taking him. I think he prefers to go in the trailer, but he's starting to get used to the seat.
Best Baby Seat May 26, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The Kettler Flipper was highly recommended by a friend. I had looked at baby carriers that are towed behind the bicycle but I did not want all that weight. The Flipper was easy to install even though the directions are in pictograms rather than words. A bracket attaches to the bike frame below the seat post and it can be adjusted up and down and rotated to get the angle right -- I had to raise the bracket after initial installation to avoid hitting it with my knees when I pedal. The seat and attached frame slip and clamp into the bracket, which takes a bit of work -- removing it takes a second or two, so you can ride without the seat when you are solo. The baby is well protected, feet strapped in as well as torso. The seat reclines a bit for comfort. Light weight, easy on and off, baby safe and comfortable -- an excellent bike seat for baby.
