It's new tech. Front setup is really good because you can have a conversation with your child very easily while riding. The child also has a really engaging, dynamic view of the world from right up front. And they get a shadow experience of holding bike bars! It's been a big deal good thing for us.

Looks much safer too. Its also usually a backseat where I am. I've seen some nasty accidents with parents dropping bikes or getting hit with kids strapped into the back seat.

At least in the front you have a chance to grab them.
