    glitch1 is of the opinion: Cute idea (especially the mini-handlebars), but I really doubt I'd want a
    child strapped to me in an accident.

    If they'd make it for twins?
    Anyway, great idea for carrying a keg of beer around....

  5. Hmm. Perhaps with some sort of a load-based release mechanism? (Velcro would
    probably do.)

    Perfect timing - right when the missus is pushing the 'let's have kids' bit.
    Getting the wife to strap junior onto her back for trips could be a
    challenge though.

    As for kids on bike, I'm not sure how the law goes here on such things. As
    I understand kids have to be able to hold on by themselves, touch the pegs
    etc. Sounds a bit subjective to me. A baby could touch the rearset on an
    R1... :)

    I thought of drilling holes in the pannier but that would affect
    waterproofing. I share the concern about having some kind of *ahem*
    'problem' with a child attached to my back but that's not going to happen is
    it??

    Anyway, if the kid fell off he/she would take you with him/her. :)

    Cheers,
