Bobike offers several mounting options for rear child bike seats on luggage racks.

At first glance, the models may look similar, but the installation system and everyday usability differ significantly.

In this article, we focus specifically on rear rack mounting systems, as they are the most popular for urban use.

1. Classic rear rack mounting (Carrier)

Example:

Bobike Go Maxi Carrier

The simplest and most universal option.

How it works:

• the seat is fixed to the rack using mounting clamps
• installation requires time and fastening (usually with tools)
• the seat typically stays on the bike permanently

Key point:

Fits most standard luggage racks

2. EB-D — advanced mounting system

Example:

Bobike One Maxi EB-D

A more advanced solution from the ONE series.

How it works:

• a mounting base is installed on the rack
• the seat clicks into place in one motion
• removal takes seconds and requires no tools

Key point:

Quick-release system for convenient daily use

3. MIK-HD — integrated system

Example:

Bobike One Junior

MIK-HD is a quick-mount system integrated into certain bike racks.

How it works:

• the seat is placed onto a dedicated platform
• locks with a simple “click”
• removal takes seconds

Key point:

Works only with MIK-HD compatible racks

4. AVS+ — alternative click system

AVS+ is another quick-mount standard.

How it works:

• the seat clicks into a compatible rack
• installation and removal are tool-free

Key point:

Compatible only with AVS+ racks

5. Universal models (2-in-1)

Example:

Bobike One Maxi Frame & Rack

What it means:

the seat can be mounted:

• on a rack
• or on the frame

A flexible solution for different bike setups

Key differences

Compatibility

• Carrier and EB-D → fit most standard racks
• MIK-HD and AVS+ → require compatible rack systems

Ease of use

• Carrier → basic, usually not removed
• EB-D → quick release, ideal for daily use
• MIK-HD / AVS+ → fastest mounting, but system-dependent

Conclusion

Although the seats may look similar, the mounting system has a major impact on usability:

• Carrier — simple and universal
• EB-D — more convenient and advanced
• MIK-HD / AVS+ — maximum convenience with compatible racks

Important

Bobike also offers:

• frame-mounted rear seats
• front child seats

However, rear rack systems remain the most practical and popular choice for everyday urban riding.
