What deck position is best for my Yepp seat?

The key to keeping a long tail cargo bike balanced is to center the weight by having the heaviest cargo and passengers sitting closest to the rider. For this reason, here are our recommendations for Yepp seat placement on the deck:

One child in a Yepp seat, no other children on the deck Install the Yepp seat in the front position, closest to the rider
One child in a Yepp seat, an older child or adult riding on the deck Install the Yepp seat in the rear position so the heavier passenger is closest to the rider
Two children in Yepp seats Have the heavier child ride in the Yepp seat closest to the rider

If you sometimes ride with just one child in a Yepp but might need to carry an older child or adult every now and again, we recommend moving the Yepp seat from front to back as applicable so that the heavier passenger sits in the front.
