"Thanks Brian, sorry for late reply. I actually bought an iBert on Facebook Marketplace shortly after starting this post. My nephew is about 25 lbs right now and riding with him in the front is so fun. Turning is a little rough, but…"
"I have an iBert that i want to part with. Got through a few kids with it and liked having them in front because it was easier to hear and talk with them than in the back. (Though the Burley was my favorite.)
I've been meaning to…"

"yai, would you be interested in this? As a loyal long time Chainlinker you can have it for free if you're interested. Put a basket on your front handlebars. PM me if you want the Rhode Gear Child Carrier. A Stella Artois 19oz would be a good…"

"I know this thread is several days old, but I just want to say you shouldn't apologize. Just because someone honks to let them cut in doesn't mean you have to. That is basically what he did. You both screamed at each…"
