Qibbel Air: the lightest rear seat for your bicycle

For popping to the bakery, a swimming lesson or going on a nice bike ride together. With the Qibbel rear seat, you can take your child anywhere with you. A rear seat on your bike is perfect for children between 9 months and 6 years of age (or up to 22 kilos). 

Qibbel's mission is to optimise your cycling experience and a lightweight rear seat is an essential item for any cycling family. For this reason, we developed the lightest bike seat in the Netherlands. Thanks to the back support made of mesh -an extremely light, hard-wearing and ventilated material- your child will experience complete comfort in a seat weighing just 2.5 kilos.

Frequently Asked Questions

Safety is, was and always will be our number one priority. Our Qibbel Air bike seats all comply with strict EU safety standards. The Qibbel front seat (max. 15kg) and rear seat (max. 22kg) comply with the safety standard EN 14344. In addition, the rear seat was also awarded extra TÜV certification in Germany. For the Qibbel 6+ Junior seat (max. 35kg) this legislation does not apply. The sturdy seat, the footrests and the seat belt guarantee worry-free cycling with your child.

Many different types of bicycle are available. Would you like tailor-made advice? If so, we recommend contacting a Qibbel dealer who will help you make the right choice and ensure safe installation. Enter your postcode or town to find a Qibbel sales outlet near you.

To ensure safe installation, your luggage carrier must be capable of bearing a weight of at least 25kg. The Qibbel Air rear seat support attachment is suitable for luggage carriers between 11 and 17cm wide with a tube diameter of between 10 and 22mm. If your luggage carrier does not meet these size requirements, then a universal luggage carrier could provide a solution.

IMPORTANT! With some bicycles, the Qibbel Air seats are difficult to mount and an add-on carrier or frame mounting bracket is required. For tailored advice, please reach out to your nearest Qibbel dealer.

Absolutely. The Qibbel Air bike seat complies with the EN 14344 European safety standard. The material is breathable, easy to clean and extremely strong. How do we know this? Because we extensively test it ourselves, of course! We've also been selling these seats for more than five years without any problems at all.

Mesh is a light, 3d-woven material that is often used in office chairs, recumbent bicycles and rucksacks. The material is very breathable and easy to clean. It is also flexible and can stand up to rough treatment.

In the Qibbel Air, we use mesh in the back support because it is comfortable, doesn’t heat up in the sun, dries quickly and is lightweight.

A sharp object might cause a tear, but the material does not fray, so it won’t tear any further.

We no longer produce Qibbel seats with styling sets. Are you looking for assembly instructions? You can find them here.

Super-fast assembly

Nervous about assembly? Not necessary. As we strive to ensure a  carefree cycling experience, our bike seats are easy to install. You don't even need any tools! You can attach the seat easily onto the rear carrier by using the rotating knob. You can pull the release at the backside, which is at a safe distance so your child can’t reach it, and take the seat off in an instant. 

With a restless child and a bulging bag, you want to be able to adjust your child seat quickly. We understand that. That's why the belts, foot straps and footrests of the Qibbel Air seat are extremely easy to adjust.

Do you wish to install the Qibbel Air bike seat on the back of your bike? If so, check if your luggage carrier is between 11 and 17 centimetres wide and can support at least 27 kilos. The tube diameter must be 10 to 22 mm. For thin tubes (diameter of 10 to 14mm), we have a special insert. This insert is supplied as standard, so you can start using your rear seat straight away! Need help? Ask your local bike shop for advice.

No luggage carrier on your bike? No problem! With the frame attachment, you attach the bike seat to a bracket above the rear wheel. This convenient solution means you can take your child everywhere with you! The frame attachment can be mounted on circular and oval frames with a diameter of 28 to 40 millimetres.

How to attach the Qibbel Air rear seat

Does your bike have an MIK HD luggage carrier? Fantastic! In a couple of seconds, you can simply click the bike seat onto the frame of the MIK HD luggage carrier. ATTENTION! When installing a rear bike seat with a MIK HD luggage carrier attachment, it is vital that you ensure the luggage carrier is a MIK HD (Heavy Duty) model. The MIK HD is a different system to the regular MIK. MIK HD was specially developed to bear heavier loads such as a rear bike seat. MIK HD bike seats are therefore only compatible with MIK HD (Heavy Duty) luggage carriers.
