Picked up some new Armrests for the Bike

My daughter rides with me a fair bit.  And she especially likes to do the long charity rides.  But for me this is always a little stressful as I know she gets tired and that is very distracting to me as I want to make sure she is safe on the seat behind me.  She has on numerous times started to drift off while riding on the seat and I needed something that would help keep her seated behind me.

Searching around on the internet brought me to carbjetkits.com.  I’m pretty sure that rear armrests are not their specialty but they did have some of the best prices and could get this delivered to me in under a weeks time.  These were super to install and actually only took me about 15-20 mins to have them mounted on the bike.  Only a couple of holes (that you need to drill) in the armrest and in they go.  Super Fast.

My daughter and I have ridden with this armrest attached multiple times and my daughter just loves it.  I like the fact that it is easy to install and to then remove when not needed.  You just remove the screws that actually hold the seat cushion to the actual backrest and pull the armrest away.
