FAQs

What is the age and weight range for the Shotgun Pro EVO?

The Pro EVO is suitable for children aged 9 months to 5 years. In the harnessed seat configuration, it supports weights from 9kg to 15kg. In the Pro seat configuration, it supports weights from 12kg to 27kg.

Can I use the Shotgun Pro EVO on my road bike?

No, the Shotgun Pro EVO is specifically designed for mountain bikes with front suspension. It is not recommended for road bikes, gravel bikes, or bikes without front suspension due to clearance and design requirements.

How quickly can I switch the seat between two bikes?

After the initial mount installation on both bikes, the seat itself can be attached or detached in approximately 15 seconds, thanks to the quick-release system.

Does the seat affect my bike's handling?

The design minimizes impact on your bike's handling. Fully adjustable positioning allows you to fine-tune the cockpit space and steering clearance for optimal control and a comfortable ride.

What if my bike has integrated cables running through the headset?

For bikes with integrated cables that pass through headset spacers, or proprietary headsets like Trek Knock Block, you will need to purchase a specific adaptor separately.

What comes in the box?

The box includes the Shotgun Pro EVO 2-in-1 child bike seat, Shotgun Pro Handlebars, tools for initial setup, a Quick Start Guide, and stickers.

How do I clean the seat?

Clean the seat and components using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. Ensure all buckles and straps are clean for proper function.

Troubleshooting

Seat wobbles or feels loose

Ensure the headset mount is securely tightened to the steerer tube and the seatpost clamp is fully engaged. Double-check that all adjustment bolts are firmly secured.

Difficulty attaching or detaching the seat

Ensure the quick-release mechanism is clean and free of debris. Check that the mount and seat interfaces are properly aligned before attempting to connect or disconnect.

Child's feet are too close to the front wheel

Adjust the seat position forward or backward using the seat's adjustment mechanism. Ensure the bike has adequate front suspension as specified for correct operation.

Handlebars interfere with steering

Adjust the seat's fore/aft position and angle to create sufficient clearance. Ensure the stem length and handlebar clamping area meet the compatibility requirements.

Buckle is difficult to open or close

Ensure the Fidlock buckle is clean and free from dirt or obstructions. Practice using the buckle; it requires a specific alignment to engage and disengage smoothly.
