that is not the thing to do if you mean off road it is too perilous and he is ancient enough to have his own bike. you can get a rack over the back tire but his feet may come home bloody and torn up
Get the 8 yr ancient his/her own bike.
how about one of those small trailers that hold 2 toddlers
that hook to the frame under the seat
He/she must be ancient enough to ride his own bike unless he has some disability.
And it would be too perilous to add accessories on to a mountain bike.
Well lets see,I’m guessing The 8 year ancient is about 50 to 65lbs.and that would make it nearly impossible to strap any type of rack or seat on the bike it self,so other than bungee cord the kid on -only option is to buy one of those buggy’s that connect like a mi nature trailer in back.expensive{yes}but much safer for the passenger and criterion as well.better yet,get the kid his own bike!!!!!!!!!!!
Not to involve. But you force look at a gaitor bar, or a tag along. The conundrum is that an eight year ancient force be too large.
But, members of our club enter events and come for rides on tandems. These work OK and I would consider this, as opposed to an articulated bar or third wheel.
Luck
An 8 year ancient is too huge to involve on a bike, unless it’s a tandem . The trailers and other carriers all have recommended weight limits of 100 pounds or less. Plus with mountain biking, it seems like it would be too perilous to involve a passenger, with all the bouncing and sudden stops.
They make third wheels that attach to your seat post and have their own pedals and handlebars etc. work well and the kid gets to help pedal
