Would this seat work with drop bars?

i don't think you should install this seat on a drop bar bike. it will be a problem when you have to turn while you ride

No __ it is an excellent seat, but it must be mounted on an upright bike ... certainly not gull-wing bars ... but, ones that allow you to sit up comfortably and see over/around your child. I have a dedicated hybrid bike just for use with my grand-daughter and we have been very pleased for over 2 years (at least 1400 miles). She is nearing 3 years old and will be out-growing the seat in a few months. We are planning for her baby brother to take his place in the iBert!

I'm sure it would, however, you will most likely have to drill new mounting holes and purchase some bolts to make it work. This seat does a great job of absorbing the "shock" of no suspension (really rough on my old back), but, keep in mind that you will be sitting higher as a result. This will impact your center of gravity and make traversing slopes a little more critical.

not sure. it bolts down with the seat mounting bolts. if there is enough flat space for it to fit it would work.

Yes I think it will work with a 20" bar. I haven't done it but the vertical rails are adjustable.

Two rails that most seats have.....If your seat has 2 bars underneath that a clamp attaches to....then it will work

Yes it will work, howhever I wouldn't drop it 2'' suspension become too stiff....1'' is good enough!!

It should as long as there is some cross bar to strap to. I use it with my wife's mountain bike which has a low cross bar without an issue.

Yes it would for sure. The bars are a little wider so make sure it's nothing they cannot slip between

Should work fine if you have stock bars and they are a reasonable value for the cost. (note they are made of plastic and just look like carbon fiber and that will come off when you crash)

Depending on the diameter of the bar you are mounting to it might work. If the bar is oval but the same diameter as the handlebars I would try but if the bar is smaller or larger than regular handlebars it will not tighten up and be secure.

If the Crash Bar is 1' 1/4th. Most average bars are. So, unless it is particulary thin or custom, it should fit.

As long as the bike has sharp lines it will be fine. If the bike has a curve that goes straight down in the middle you will need a bar that attaches the bike to the rack. Not a big deal.

As long as you have a bar right below your seat you should be fine! The support that holds the chair in place needs a spot so the chairs prongs can slide in easily. Hope that helps! I love mine.

Yes (that's what I have), but they are junk. I returned them. There is a lot of flex in them, so putting a bike on them will cause a lot of side to side sway as they will torque the bars. They are also curved upwards, so the bikes will lean outwards. They would work fine however for something like a roof box.

I don't believe so. But you can buy a bar that connects between the seat and handle bars for about $15-20 which will work. Here's a link to a pretty high-rated one:Allen Sports Tension Bar Bicycle Cross-Bar Adaptor

I suppose it depends on the distance of the gap between the seats and the depth that the flange can go down in between. If there is anything in the way, like your seat belt, that won't allow it to slide all the way down, then you'll have problems with the stability. Otherwise I would imagine it could work

Hello Mary, As long as the top bar has 15" of clearance for the horizontal supports you should be good to go. I carry two drop tube bikes on mine and because it's high off the ground there is plenty of clearance.
