It s The Evolution Of 3 Wheeled Pushchair

The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

A three-wheeled pushchair is ideal if you walk regularly on rough terrain or jog. They are ideal if you need a buggy that can take on any terrain, from busy high streets to woodland tracks.

For greater maneuverability, opt for a model that has locks or swivelling front wheels. Front and rear wheels that are larger also give you the most comfortable riding on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

A 3 wheel umbrella stroller wheel pushchair is a great option for those looking to move easily. The wheels are placed close to each other, which allows the chassis to turn and twist much more easily than a standard 4 wheel pushchair, making them perfect for busy streets and shops. Some even have a pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide extra maneuverability when needed. The Roma Atlas, for example has two wheels placed close together in front, and a clever swivel lock that gives it all the maneuverability of three wheels, with added stability.

Many of our most loved 3 wheel stroller with infant car seat wheelers are able to be converted from pram, stroller or car seat, and toddler seat as your child grows.

One such example is the Baby Jogger Nipper pushchair that comes with Hauck's XL air wheels with a 360-swivel lockable front wheel and a suspension system that makes it suitable for all types of terrain, including off-road, and jogging when your child is old enough to join in with you!

Choosing the right wheels for your pushchair is crucial dependent on the location you'll be using it most. Moulded wheels are great for city use but will not be able to handle rougher terrain.

Stability
