I would think she would be safe with the handlebars to hold on to, but every kid is different and you will need to adjust based on her level of comfort and security.
I was not experienced when I got the wagon. But it spawned something in me. I've purchased three bikes since and I am now an avid road cyclist. I will be riding my third century in June and 4th in July. I average about 125 miles a week now (not counting Rad Wagon time). Thanks to Rad I am now a...
I also haul two kids. Aged 7 and 9. Combined 140 pounds and I am 180. No problems other than I have to tell them not to wiggle. They both sit on two of the Rad Pads and we have commuted over 1000 miles with this setup.

Replaced my first spoke today after 580 miles of riding. It was an easy job, took about ten minutes for a first time go at it. I ordered ten to have a backups. I am not surprised they had gotten loose as our roads are rough and I always carry about 130 lbs of kids on the back.
I have had two flats on mine. The first was a pinched tube and was my fault. The second was from goatheads, which are prolific in Utah. Both times I just laid down a cloth to protect my seat, flipped the bike upside down onto the seat and handlebars with the cloth to protect from scratches...
Since I commute to work each day and drop my two kids off at school or summer camp along they way, safety is a big concern of mine. I am most concerned about not being invisible to other drivers and want to be seen as well as I possibly can be. So today I purchased a set of LED By Lites to...
Thanks. That's good info. How long did shipping take? Did you order from Yuba directly? Does the cable compression effect the braking at all? sorry for all the questions.
