Old Chariot CTS question for og maggot dads

[ex-powderbroker]

I picked up an old school chariot this weekend. seems legit, made in alberta with impressive build quality.

it came with a baby supporter like the one i’ve attached the picture of.

i can’t find any documentation about it for age or weight though, does anyone recognize it? it is not like the ‘thule baby supporter’ or the ‘infant sling’.



if this could help a new mom get out and jog until the baby is bigger and ready for bike adventures that would be rad.

Yeah. I don’t have any of the old documentation and don’t remember the specs surrounding it, though.

Gets a baby in there sooner who isn’t 100% on supporting their head yet. The time window between the baby being old enough for the jostling of that kind of stroller and not needing the head support anymore is pretty short, IIRC. I don’t think it’s really meant for babies who aren’t strong enough to support their own heads so much as to prevent those who can but are a bit marginal from becoming a bobble head. Could be wrong, though.... been a while.

That’s a ‘Baby Supporter’. For three months and older, and to be used walking or running.

For biking, kids should be 1 year+, and need to be able to wear a helmet.

mustonen- that’s exactly the situation with the baby. very good head control and not a bobble head unless tired.

thank you both for the details, exactly what i was looking for in a manual.

tech talk comes through again!

I think that thing is for stroller mode, not biking.

does this help?

[ex-powderbroker]

Yeah, maybe that baby supporter came from a Cougar and not a Cheetah?

I don't have the harness either... it doesn't seem to matter with winter gear but it could be something to look for when using summer layers. I'll keep an eye out.

Thanks!
