Abstract

A bicycle seat for a child, adapted for removable engagement with a horizontal cross bar on an adult bicycle is provided. A unitary seat includes a seat portion which may be provided with a backrest, and a lap belt, and there are downwardly depending compartments in front of the seat having adjustable bottom plates to provide foot support for a child carried in the seat. A handle bar is provided in front of the child, as is a removable headrest. Locking means are provided below the seat for releasable engagement with a bicycle cross bar, between the adult seat and the handle bars thereof. The child is thus able to enjoy a secure ride in close communication with the adult bicycle rider.
