      Yeah understand how people can be so stupid not figure that out. It especially BOILS my blood when I see idiots trying to get their dog to run along side them when they ride a bike but the dog wants to pull and starts to choke it itself. Then in great idiot fashion those same people will go out on a walk with their dog attached to a harness. Then wonder why their dog is pulling.

    One thing I regret to this day is I never took my dog with me on a bike ride. (Eli, my 8yr old Pomeranian died last November) She always hates it when I leave, she knows when I'm leaving because I always commute by bike & her fuzzy face is always the 1st thing that welcomes me home. Sadly I will never get to experience that again. Sorry for the feels train & thank you for this video.

      I lost my cat about a month ago. He was really healthy and active right to the end, and this summer I just happened to take him on his first bike ride. He rode in a sling around my chest. We did it about a dozen times before he started getting sick and I think he really did love it! When I lost him, I felt so much relief that he got to experience that.

      Those backpacks are awful for dogs joints. It’s okay for a 10-20 minute ride, but the position they use is terrible for their joints.
      There really isn’t a good method of bringing your dog with you on your bicycle, if they weigh more than 20lbs or so.
      Cats are perfect for those backpack things.

    Dude this dog isn't lazy.... It's honestly probably petrified....idk how's this isn't obvious 😞 he's a rescue, look at all the clips of him and his body positioning and reactions to things. You really need to get some dog training in with him mate. You seem pretty Keen so do it right and get some lessons with him with an approved dog trainer in your area. You'd be surprised how worth it could be with some effort to look at first identifying the body language in a dog. 🙏🏾

    @holben27 3 года назад +7

    Really just depends on your dog's temperament. I've ridden with my mini aussie in the exact same wald basket and he loves it.
    My tip is to get a harness but also make the dog feel like hes in control, that means find a place where he can hop into the basket himself without you having to lift him in.

  • @radbikeadventure
    @radbikeadventure 3 года назад +2

    Seymour is adorable! I'm amazed he did as well as he did in the basket! Our pups leap out of our trailer the moment it starts moving. Good boooy. I think he'll get there eventually 🐶

  • @shelleyshell1150
    @shelleyshell1150 3 года назад +23

    Well, looked like he fell out more than jumped out, ijs. But Seymour is a rescue and he could have had some kind of traumatic experience with another dog in his past. He seems to suffer from some anxiety, and I think once you’ve had him longer and he grows even closer to you, he will be easier to train

  • @jaydiaz8909

    • @juanpecan7089

      Definitely a harness, attached to the basket with a very short very secure leash. Make it so the dog can move around but physically cannot leave the basket.

  • @spiderpickle3255
    @spiderpickle3255 2 года назад +1

    Those bars were probably the wrong choice. Their design allows the basket more leverage in pulling the bars with shifting weight. They also put the basket forward a bit more shifting gravity forward making it even worse. Otherwise long bars are a good idea and I think if you just let Seymour get his sea legs turning in the basket it wont be too much of a problem hauling him along. Gets easier each time.

    If there is substantial load on the handlebar or fork the geometry needs to be changed to less wheel flop in order to have similar handling.

  • @y1d2d3a4m5
    @y1d2d3a4m5 3 года назад +1

    Even a small enclosed dog "crate" that you attach to a front rack would be ideal. It makes them feel like their in a den and of course will keep him(and you!) really protected. Theres some really light weight ones out their for carrying that I believe are made out of plastic and nylon. Good luck! ✌💛 Or just "MacGyver" another basket over top the one you have with simple hinges. That say you can still see him on camera!

    Harness, towel or blanket in bottom of basket - but not yet. Need a few months to slow down, learn about your dog, walks, hikes, chilling together.

    At the end of the the day man , just do what`s good for the dog . I`m glad neither one of ya got hurt . Teach or train your dog to stay calm in the basket at a park or somewhere safe till he gets used to it . Lower the basket to one on a front rack and he`ll feel more comfortable and with a harness he`ll be easier to control for a safe ride for both.

  • @markjthomson

  • @nicojar
    @nicojar 3 года назад +1

    Bad idea, but good thing you tried for others, and seymour didn't get hurt. :)
    Those baskets can't handle more than 10kg, actually closer to 5kg tops. They rest on your wheel skewer, which sure isn't designed to resist more weight applied laterally so close to the axle. That, also was a very bad idea. And, of course, little dog = big stress reactions (when they are stressed). And, as you said, cranks & spokes could have made this quite bad.
    The whole training part was adorable :)

    • @Aubreykun
      @Aubreykun 3 года назад

      Baskets in general make the handling of a bike awful and should be the last place you add weight. However, this particular basket can hold over 100lbs as long as you have ways to make it so you can safely can handle it - which may include having a friend hold the rear down while you both walk the bike! The thing itself is 8lbs of welded steel. It isn't "resting on the skewer" it's clamped to the dropout. The skewer takes no load, the fork and handlebars do.

  • @princessleiathemaltese5571
    @princessleiathemaltese5571 Год назад

    Is it harder to steer with that weight on the handlebar?

  • @BEEBEE159
    @BEEBEE159 3 года назад

    I have a Wald basket like that on one of my bicycles, and it makes the steering very heavy, as I'm sure you discovered. It would be best to mount a basket on the back of the bike, instead. I have bikes with large baskets mounted on the back; and I carry heavy groceries with no trouble. Put him on a very short leash or rope, so he can't get out of the basket. Caution: He could opt to hang himself with said short rope, jumping out of the basket, if it turns out he doesn't like cycling. Lastly, be very careful with a heavy loaded front basket because if you hit something like a 2x4 in the road, for example, the bike will flip forward, as the bike is front heavy. Ask me how I know?? Yep, that happened to me....a freaking 2x4 in the road, in the evening when visibility was bad.

    • @Aubreykun
      @Aubreykun 3 года назад

      Yep a front, high load is the absolute worst on a bike and the last place you should be adding weight. The general guideline is keep the center of gravity of the bike low and either centered or rearwards. High loads make the bike tippy. I carried a full toolbox on top of a rear rack once without adding ballast in panniers - that was NOT fun, but at least I wasn't at risk of going OTB due to it.
      Tangent: Today's fixies have track bike DNA, while the style of antique bike (even if fixed or single speed) that a lot of "hipster style" seems to ape off of has cruisers as its "Grandchildren" - a bike that rear-heavy and slack wouldn't be as affected by a front load.

  • @Aubreykun
    @Aubreykun 3 года назад

    A basket is the absolute worst place to put a heavy load for all the reasons Zach demonstrated. 30lbs in the rear is no big deal, but 30lbs up front is a nightmare of handling and OTB risk. Not even counting the weight of the basket (which is steel.)

  • @Greg-zr4wm

    I live in Calgary Canada and ride with my dog in a basket on the front of my bike. She loves it and yes we have a few hairy moments with other dogs but for the most part she loves it. I should mention she is 15 - 20 pounds. I also took it one level more and have her registered as my ptsd service dog, which she is great for.
    The problem with other dogs comes from being attacked a couple of times. So we are working on it with her.

    He definitely didn't jump out of the basket, he fell out. And he's fine. He looked like he was just trying to turn around to look, but the leash was too short and the bike wobbling at the same time and just fell out.
    I think you will be able to ride with him with little bit of experience with it (trial and error). He really looked like he was enjoying it.

  • @mmurmurjohnson2368
    @mmurmurjohnson2368 3 года назад +1

    At 30 lbs let the dog run along side you leashed, he'll burn energy and may be less focused on other dogs, just a thought. Your dog seems more bored than lazy though, especially if he can summon the energy to lash out at other dogs, he may be more of a runner than a sitter.

  • @BEEBEE159
    @BEEBEE159 3 года назад

    I think he did pretty good, actually. After he fell from the basket, he seems to have learned his lesson. That's how most people are, too. They have to learn the hard way. I think you'll have him cycling in no time. Just be careful, as I said in my previous post; the bike is very front heavy, and you can flip very easily, even on speed humps, if you're not careful.

    Maybe a cargo style bike would be a good bet. With a smaller front wheel he'd be much lower and the ride would be less twitchy. Gears aren't quite be in your lane but this way you can ride to the fun dog walks. And have a much bigger basket for him. I'm thinking that a nice 8kg bike with snappy lively handling doesn't quite match with 13kg on the front end. 😂

      I think topeak or some similar company makes an enclosed pet carrier if you want to try again!

    I've seen dogs jump out of moving cars. Don't underestimate their single-mindedness.

    My dog bailed out of a basket. Somehow I caught her mid air. And kept the bike upright.

    Get an ebike it's stronger and more stable and sturdy. l ride my dog in an enclosed basket where she can look out the window while being safely buckled in.

    Had a Bob trailer. Have 2 wiener dogs. Put dogs in trailer, rode around town. Dogs barked the ENTIRE time... every second, barking. End of that.

    Epic mistake putting it in the front 🙃 I don't need to tell you what's going to hit the object first when you crash 🤷🏻🐶🖤 you be better off putting him in a messenger bag or just walk them better yet get a BMX you'll be at level of your puppy 🙃
