bicycle helmets large heads image
Girlz
I am trying to not only find a helmet for my infant but also a safety harness or something to make it safer for her where can i find this?
Answer
I don't believe that any company out there makes a helmet for an infant, short of a bicycle helmet that may fit. There is no company that makes a safety harness for infants, or a harness/seat belt of any kind for an ATV. Reason being, what if you need to bail off because you lose control? I know I would not want to be strapped to an ATV. I have only had to "ditch" once and if I hadn't, it probably would have killed me if I was strapped to it. To be candid, if you lost control and had to ditch would you want the infant strapped to it...pretty good chances your infant would be crushed, especially if you are looking at a roll-over or tumble situation. Many states have laws against passengers on an ATV unless it designed for that purpose (Polaris makes one for example) or vehicles like the Yamaha Rhino.
Long story short, you are looking out for your infant. If you are going "putting around" with her, get a small bike helmet unless the child has a large head, then you should be able to find a small helmet at a motorcycle shop. They make helmets for the little ones that race in the 50cc class, but those kids are normally about 5. Next option is get something like a Yamaha Rhino. You do not want to strap your child to the ATV.....Righting a rolled ATV isone thingg, but not with a crushed child attached to it. Sorry, I know it is not the answer you are looking for, but it is the truth.

Anyone have a bicycle seat for baby that you love?
RearFace@1
I would love to get one for my 13 month old for this summer. Have the breeze in our hair and great exercise and freshness...I want the best for a good price, no more than $60 give or take. I am not sure what to look for. Any ideas or advice? I don't mind shopping online either, but I am not sure where to go and Google is just killin me today.
Also, a baby helmet too...?
Answer
I have absolutely no advice about what brand to get, I'm sorry. If you have a large sporting goods store near you that may be worth looking at. Chances are they would have some.
Mostly I'm just wanting to answer saying that I love the idea of a bicycle seat rather than a trailer. Everyone says that if you fall baby falls too, which is going to happen with a seat or a trailer. With a seat the baby is strapped in and protected on three sides like with a car seat. I'm more paranoid with the trailers. They make the bike longer, which means that you have more of an opportunity for a car or another bike to hit the trailer if they aren't paying attention. Plus if you fall on the bike the trailer is going to tip too, and often kids aren't as secured in them as they would be in a seat.
Here are two that I found on amazon. I think both look great, but for a younger toddler I would go with the one that has head support. The front mounted one looks like it would have better stability for the rest of the bike, but it looks a bit scary.
Good luck!
