Which bike seat fits my bicycle?
Carefree, fun times with your little one: that is important to us at Urban Iki. That is why all bicycle seats are made as simple as possible. You can easily assemble the bicycle seat in 5 minutes, using the supplied mounting materials. And off you go! Do you have a mountain bike, city bike or electric bike? Discover which bike seat fits your bicycle.
Which bicycle seat fits my electric bike?
With an electric bike, you and your little one get to the most beautiful places very fast. E-bikes are becoming more and more popular. With that in mind, we made our products suitable for mounting on the stem and luggage carrier of an electric bicycle.
Urban Iki front seat for an electric bike
The Urban Iki front seat fits on the stem of an e-bike with a diameter between 21 and 28 mm. The compact adapter, that you will use to mount the front seat, needs a minimum of 19 mm in height. The compact adapter is also suitable for Ahead stems with gear cables.
Urban Iki rear seat on an electric bike
The Urban Iki rear seat with carrier mounting and the Junior seat fit on the luggage carrier of most electric bicycles. The battery under the luggage carrier or the mid-engine is not a problem. If the battery is on the side of the e-bike the Urban Iki rear seat cannot be mounted due to the footrests that are part of the bicycle seat.
Does your e-bike have an oval luggage carrier? No problem! You can adjust the legs of the mounting frame as desired. The rear seat with carrier mounting always comes with the Urban Iki mounting frame. If you buy an extra mounting frame, you can easily switch the seat between two bicycles.
A mountain bike usually does not have a luggage carrier and a short stem. That is why we invented the MTB/ATB adapter. This accessory ensures that the Urban Iki front seat can be placed on stems shorter than 19 mm. The MTB/ATB adapter only needs 4mm in height. In combination with the front seat, the adapter also makes it possible to mount an Urban Iki windshield.
Which bike seat is suitable for a bike without a luggage carrier?
You can easily and quickly install the frame mounting bracket on bicycles without a luggage carrier. Mount the bracket to the frame of your bicycle to create a sturdy luggage carrier (which has been tested and approved by the independent German TÜV institute). After that, just place the Urban Iki rear seat with frame mounting on the mounting bracket. Easy as 1, 2, 3! Do you like to switch the rear seat between bicycles? Use the handy Urban Iki Frame block. With this accessory you can easily click the mounting bracket onto more bicycles.
Which bike seat for bicycles with MIK (HD) system?
Thanks to a MIK HD luggage carrier, you can quickly switch between accessories such as a child seat, bicycle bag or dog bed. Do you have such a carrier? Then you can install the standard Urban Iki child seat using the supplied mounting frame. It is however even more convenient to choose for the MIK HD Urban Iki rear seat with integrated MIK HD adapter plate. This allows you to release the seat in no time. Very useful if you go out without your little one!
Which bicycle seat fits on a bicycle with a transport rack?
The Urban Iki front seat fits on a bicycle with a transport rack. The transport rack might get in the way of the footrests. If this is the case, place the transport rack slightly forward. If this does not work, a bicycle mechanic can do this for you. Furthermore, your stem must have a diameter between 21 and 28 mm and the height of at least 19 mm. In this case, the standard supplied compact adapter fits on your stem. If your stem is shorter, use the MTB/ATB adapter.
The Urban Iki rear seat can be mounted on the luggage carrier of a transport bike. For both the rear seat and the Junior seat, the luggage carrier must be between 120 and 175 mm wide. It also has to meet the EN14872 standard and it has to be suitable to carry at least 25 kilos.
