    After mucho research, I went for a Bobike mini + with Mountain bike bracket and front sleeping pad.

    The standard "quill stem" bracket turns the seat as you move the handlebars - personally I prefer the seat to be fixed in one position, so I opted for the MTB bracket.

    From about 9kgs to 15kgs in weight for junior.
