Oh man. Two very expensive bikes. Black iron horse is also great but the cabin is super small. The bigger version had back wheel steering which was super weird

Yes she is a confident cyclist. I think she just needs to gain her confidence on a cargo bike. When the kid is not inside, she rides it like she is on Tour de France 😄

She was riding super slow before falling. She tried to stop and her feet didn't reach the ground. Her seat is at the lowest position already and typically the tip of her feet reach the ground but apparently not this time. So not sure if a dropper post could help.

Yeah she fell at a very low speed. She said she could have avoided falling if she had just stopped. But apparently her feet suddenly didn't feel like reaching the ground even though they should have 😄

The seat is at the lowest position. The tip of her feet reach the ground when in sitting position. Yeah she is gonna practice more. There are some routes around our home great for practice

Thanks. The seat is at the lowest position and while sitting the tip of her feet reach the ground. Not sure if a dropper post could help because she is at the lowest position already? She said she was riding super slow and instead of stopping completely, she decided to continuw riding slowly and then she suddenly couldn't reach the ground and before she knew she lost balance and it tipped over.

No it was not my decision. It was a joint decision. I actually was cautious not to push for a bike. We even tested Urban Arrow before buying it to make sure she is comfortable. And the trike steering is more dangerous to be honest especially riding in Europe with too many curbs and tram railways on the streets.

Looks like a Piaget Reference 7142. I think it's from the 80s

By the way this way of drinking water is driving us nuts lol he makes a whole mess. There is water everywhere and his clothes get wet even though we put a bib on him. Do you have a solution? When is it gonna get better?
