DIY Bike Dog Carrier Package - Padded Liner (2 Sizes in One) + 4 Point Safety Harness & Crate Fasteners - For Pets 20lb+ - Safe Pet Bicycle Travel

I don’t understand the bad review here that made me second guess myself before purchasing. However, I’m very happy I took a chance on this one. First off - the price can’t be beat for the thought that went into designing this product. I’m going to section this review into 3 parts, covering the 3 parts of this product that you will be receiving. The mat is about a quarter inch thick all around and provides plenty of cushion on the bottom as well as the sides. In addition the mat is reversible offering two different fabrics to choose from while still being neutral gray in color to go with any color bike you may have. The harness is of a nylon material much like a leash. You can adjust this as high or low as your pet needs from the crate to the collar. The collar part also adjusts to size, once adjusted it velcros down to ensure it won’t slip from place. The best part and what I think is the most genius about this harness is the double collar buckle. With this feature you don’t ever have to adjust the collar again, just un-click both buckles and move the harness off to each side and your pet can be lifted straight in/out. The ties are (about 10 inch) 120-pound tension nylon zip ties. I only needed 4 of them but it’s nice to have some extra just incase I have to remove and reattach the crate down the road for some reason. Nothing too special about these except they are very heavy-duty ties and once attached my little man feels secure and the crate is going nowhere.Yes, you need to provide the crate as this is a product able to fit into two different sized crates, so pick the right size for your pet to be comfy. I knew these crates came in so many different colors and this is how I customized it to match my bike. I have accents of royal blue in my bike frame so I did a little research and found a royal blue 16-quart crate which makes this look so AWESOME! In conclusion, If you’re looking for fluff or lots of bells and whistles this product probably isn’t for you. But if you’re looking for a safe and secure way to bike ride with your pet then look no further this product does just that A+++

This is the third rendition of a bike seat for my dog and is the best. It really works great on my E-Trike. It is a very secure ride for her, she is free to move around and look out both sides, but she cannot fall out. She absolutely loves it and I love having her with me. She can stick her head up next to me so that I can put my arm around her and pet her. We have gone over 400 miles together so far. Love it!

This product is incredible! Let me first tell you that I have had the hardest time finding a carrier to take my 30 pound pup on rides with me. I've gone though several products before finding this one. It seemed none of them had the strength to or safety components to make me feel comfortable that my pup is safe on the bike.Pros:- This is an actual pet carrier designed for pets and to safely carry your pet while bike riding.- The 4-point harness connects on all four sides and once adjusted you never have to adjust it again. To add, this harness also has two buckles on the collar instead of one, which makes it very easy to get Baxter in and out without obstructions. Once he's in you just click the two buckles together and off we go!- The Mat is fully reversible so you can pick which fabric your pet would prefer. Also this makes a pretty comfy seat cushion for myself as I can disconnect the harness, remove and lay flat on the ground as a seat for me once we get to point B if I forget my blanket.- I love the classic "Bike with a milk crate look" and like the look even more with my pupper safely inside. This thing turns heads! So cute!- All you need is a bike with a rack and one of the two sized crates specified.- If you don't have a crate already attached to your bike rack this product does come with 120 pound tension heavy duty zip ties so you can easily, safely and securely attach your crate once found.Cons:- It does not come with the standard milk crate(s). (I actually had one in my garage but they're pretty cheap if not free to acquire just do some research)- The harness can be a little tricky to set to the appropriate length in the beginning (but its nice cause you only have to adjust this one time)The main takeaway is that there is finally a safe way to bike travel with your pet larger than 10 pounds! Just keep in mind this is an accessory to assist in safe pet travel. I guess it makes sense being called "CrateMate" as you still need a couple basic things to complete this products full potential. You wont be disappointed with this well thought out product! Let the fun begin!

This crate conversion kit was easy to put together and install. HOWEVER, it didn't get a 5 star review because the zip ties that come with it are garbage and break when you bump the crate getting on and off the bike. Invest in some quality zip ties and you have yourself a nice system for taking your dog for a bike ride.We followed an online video tutorial and it was a piece of cake. The collar attachment is loose enough for a dog to fully turn around, but not escape. The crate system is best suited for a step-through bike or a handlebar cargo rack. The crate sits up pretty high in the back making it a little more difficult to swing your leg over while getting on and off the bike. This is where we bumped it and the zip ties snapped easily.
