A seatpost-mounted child seat is supposed to have some flex compared to a rack-mounted seat; the question doesn't say which it is. At that much weight, unweighting the saddle to use your legs for suspension of your weight over bumps (and avoiding big bumps such as kerbs) would be a good idea. Realistically you're on your own legally unless it falls to bits on the way out of the shop anyway. | |
