Turn every trail into a bonding ride. Shotgun’s frame-mounted kids’ Mountain Bike seats let your toddler ride up front and centre, bringing you together on every climb, corner and descent. Feel every giggle, share every turn and keep your little one right where the action is.
The Shotgun Story
Founded in New Zealand in May 2017 by mountain bike parents, Shotgun was born out of a need to ride together without compromising performance or safety. One founder’s frustration with leaving younger kids behind sparked the development of front-mounted child bike seats that could handle full suspension rigs, steep angles and carbon frames, all without permanent modifications.
That same hands-on experience still drives the brand today in every trail-friendly design and every product shift. The technical insights from year-one prototypes, safety standards and direct feedback from families feed into seats that fit modern Mountain Bikes, protect your frame and keep your child secure and comfy. You get all that-not just innovation, but ride-with-kids solutions you can trust.

Why Ride Shotgun?
- Designed with modern frames in mind: engineered to work with full suspension Mountain Bikes, sloping or tapered top tubes and carbon or alloy frames without permanent mods.
- Safety that meets real standards: models like the Pro EVO comply with EN 14344 and ASTM F3641 safety standards and are built for both off-road durability and peace of mind.
- Adjustability over time: seats grow with your child, whether moving from harnessed setup (9-15 kilograms) to bigger sizes (up to 27 kilograms) or adjusting leg width, saddle angle and cockpit fit.
- Zero frame contact in higher-end models: mounts via steerer tube and seat post so there’s no rubbing, no interference with controls and better clearance, even on Electric Mountain Bikes.
