The ADVANCE BIKID is a purpose-built tandem kids harness designed to make young passengers – and their pilots – genuinely happy in the air. Compact, ultralight and reassuringly robust, it closes the gap between adult tandem kit and the needs of small flyers.
Certified safety for the smallest passengers
The BIKID targets children from approximately 100 to 130 cm in height, offering a snug XXS fit that keeps them correctly positioned during all phases of flight. Despite its miniature dimensions, the harness has passed EN/LTF load testing up to 100 kg, giving professional and recreational tandem pilots a high level of structural safety margin for dynamic loads.
Featherlight harness, smart weight balance
Weighing around 0.55 kg plus roughly 0.1 kg for the carabiners, the BIKID adds almost no burden to a tandem setup. This low weight helps keep take-offs agile and landings simple, while also making transport to launch sites – whether on foot, by lift or by vehicle – noticeably easier.
Light, easy-handling and practical by design
ADVANCE has divided the BIKID concept into three clear priorities: light, easy handling and practical. Simple buckles and clear strap routing help the pilot secure the child quickly and correctly, an important factor in daily tandem operations or school environments. The compact form factor and tidy geometry also minimise snag points and keep pre-flight checks intuitive.
Technical focus without unnecessary extras
The BIKID is offered in a dedicated XXS size optimised specifically for kids. Rather than spreading across multiple overlapping sizes, ADVANCE has concentrated on a tight height window (~100–130 cm) to achieve a clean fit, stable seating position and predictable weight shift behaviour for young passengers.
Ideal partner for tandem professionals and families
For commercial tandem pilots, schools and clubs, the BIKID provides a professional solution for flights with children, complementing tandem wings such as the BIBETA series. For private pilots, it enables family “airtime” with gear that is properly dimensioned for kids instead of improvising with adapted adult harnesses.
Documentation and support
ADVANCE backs the BIKID with full documentation, including a user manual, carabiner instructions and EN certification papers, available as downloads from the manufacturer’s site. This ensures that pilots can familiarise themselves with correct setup, inspection and operational limits from day one.
