This design solves the marital conflict issues. She sits comfortably in front with a nice view. Easy to have a conversation because our heads are pretty close together. Has her own derailleur so she can pedal at her own cadence. Rides hands free so she can sip wine and eat crackers and cheese. I'm in the back huffin' and puffin'. The little guy is just happy to be along for the ride.
