I hope you all keep coming out with more accessories. I'd like to see a rear captains chair with a little more reclined back for older kids and small adults.
Btw I'm looking into getting thumb screws to attempt to make switching toolless. Not sure i'd call it quick release but as is I don't think I'll ever use the large rear basket because it's such a pain to put on and take off
I don’t see why the seat pads can’t be used independently. What if I’m carrying an adult? I can’t use the handrails for that can I. I only need the seat pads
you can totally install the lower seat pad without the handrails. I've done it on my own bike. Hell, the seat pad even came bundled with my bike without the handrails!
I installed panniers with the back rack yesterday. Since you can pull the front of the pannier out to put items in (and take them out), it works…and I think pretty well. The only quirk I ran into is that most of the velcro straps seem a bit long for where your are supposed to wrap them, but that isn’t ‘cause of the back rack. I was also really happy in how easy it was to remove and reattach the back rack. Other than the straps issue (which you can get past by double-wrapping/etc.), it was pretty impressive.
Will the front basket be available again? It looks more sleek than the bag but I’m not seeing it on your website. And are you planning on coming out with a half seat pad for when a child seat is installed? Not sure how my 4YO is supposed to sit in front of his little brother without some butt support. Looking forward to our bikes arriving soon!
This is using an older model Abound as the one I just bought (July '24) does not have the side rail. This is the case with other demo videos. Please update them.

Thank you for your feedback, Brent! We're always looking for ways to improve and expand our product line
It'd be cool if it had like a latching system to make it quicker to switch between the cargo basket and the handrail for example
That's a great suggestion!

is there a way to quick swap rear seat for rear basket? like have basket for groceries but be able to swap for rear seat when needed
Very clear. Nicely done, thanks.
🙌

Are you able to have the rear rack basket and the pannier bags installed at the same time, or is the rear rack basket too wide?
I think I've seen other videos showing that you can. But the bags are almost flush with the basket so I'm concerned it'd be difficult to load

@@JegErAlan The back rack isn't quick release is it? Do you have to bolt it down?
@@jamesclawson9243 Yes, it is bolted, but only two front, two back. The bolts you see on top are just for the liner.
I would like to know if hand rail and pannier set and bamboo board can be installed simultaneously.
Since we have not tested these all together, we would not be able to confirm.
Great video. But can we figure out a good place to mount the Garmin Varia? I guess it must go over the tail light.

Can you use the backrest of the seat pad as a smaller seat pad if we decide to add on the baby seat?
No, sorry.
I did it but it's serving as a foot rest for the baby seat at the moment. It's not attached as firmly as it would be in the correct position.
Lots of people talk about using this strategy in various forums. (Although it's not officially supported.)
I electrical taped the smaller one down, works perfectly for us.
Why don't you have blue for sale on your website? Only sage?
This would be the final nail to be the decision to purchase.
