Chariot Baby Supporter
The fleece Baby Supporter helps children between from about 3-4
months to about 18 months of age sit upright and nap
comfortably. The head support is removable, for when your child
is old enough for a helmet (usually around 1 year old). Works
with 5-point harnesses. Compatible with all Chariot products
except the SideCarrier. (Note that cycling is not recommended
for children under 1 year of age; this accessory is for using
your Chariot for walking or jogging.)
That's a manufacturer's recommendation/CYA move. I certainly don't know
how it relates to "safely" riding.
I think I recall seeing something about helmets not being available for
children under about one year of age for similar reasons.
