Finally a bike carrier designed specifically for pets!
This product is incredible! Let me first tell you that I have had the hardest time finding a carrier to take my 30 pound pup on rides with me. I’ve gone though several products before finding this one. It seemed none of them had the strength to or safety components to make me feel comfortable that my pup is safe on the bike.Pros:- This is an actual pet carrier designed for pets and to safely carry your pet while bike riding.- The 4-point harness connects on all four sides and once adjusted you never have to adjust it again. To add, this harness also has two buckles on the collar instead of one, which makes it very easy to get Baxter in and out without obstructions. Once he’s in you just click the two buckles together and off we go!- The Mat is fully reversible so you can pick which fabric your pet would prefer. Also this makes a pretty comfy seat cushion for myself as I can disconnect the harness, remove and lay flat on the ground as a seat for me once we get to point B if I forget my blanket.- I love the classic “Bike with a milk crate look” and like the look even more with my pupper safely inside. This thing turns heads! So cute!- All you need is a bike with a rack and one of the two sized crates specified.- If you don’t have a crate already attached to your bike rack this product does come with 120 pound tension heavy duty zip ties so you can easily, safely and securely attach your crate once found.Cons:- It does not come with the standard milk crate(s). (I actually had one in my garage but they’re pretty cheap if not free to acquire just do some research)- The harness can be a little tricky to set to the appropriate length in the beginning (but its nice cause you only have to adjust this one time)The main takeaway is that there is finally a safe way to bike travel with your pet larger than 10 pounds! Just keep in mind this is an accessory to assist in safe pet travel. I guess it makes sense being called “CrateMate” as you still need a couple basic things to complete this products full potential. You wont be disappointed with this well thought out product! Let the fun begin!

BUY THIS FOR YOUR DOG
I NEVER leave reviews for merch, but the makers of this bike pet carrier are inventors after my own heart!! They saw a need for a product and they solved it! My doggo is 24lbs so she does not fit in the standard front-mounted, basket-style pet carrier like a tiny little (15lbs or less) doggo would. Also, they make pet trailers, which I used to have for my old bike, but the way they attach to the rear wheel is simply not possible with my new electric bike. (In case anyone is wondering, it’s a Rad Power Bike with a Rad Power Bike Rear Rack mounted to it.) My husband strapped a milk crate (with bungee cords) to the rear rack of his bike, so he could grab groceries and get them home easily, and I thought to myself, “You know, the dog would fit in something like that. But how can I make it safe?” And then I started to Google, and BEHOLD, the RuffLyfe DIY crate conversion kit! It is perfection. We just had our inaugural ride today and boy was that fun! (The look on this one little girl’s face as we rode past the elementary school was priceless.) My dog was scared at first, but lots of hot dog bites and soothing pats calmed her down, and when we actually got moving she was very calm and still. I firmly believe she will grow to love it! (She was afraid to kayak at first too, but now she hops right on.) The kit comes with 1.) zip ties to fasten the crate securely to your rear rack 2.) the padding that goes around the back edge of the milk crate and the bottom, and most importantly 3.) the safety harness with four straps to make sure your pup is properly strapped in and secure. Note: the rear rack itself, as I said, was purchased separately, as was the large milk crate. (She fits in a standard size milk crate, but she is more comfortable in the longer one, and there was plenty of room for it on my rear rack, so that worked out great.) I highly recommend this awesome DIY pet carrier!! It is THE solution I’ve been looking for! I am SO looking forward to all the fun park biking adventures that the pup and I can now have together. Thank you RuffLyfe!!
