Why You Should Concentrate On Enhancing 3 Wheeled Pushchair
The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 wheeler strollers Wheeled Pushchair
If you frequently walk on rough terrain, or want to exercise in a pushchair with three wheels, it's the best 3 wheel travel system option. They are a great option if require a vehicle that can handle all types of terrain, from busy streets to tracks in the woods.
Look for designs with front wheels that can be locked or rotated. This will give you more flexibility. Larger wheels both front and back also offer a more comfortable ride over various surfaces.
Manoeuvrability
Manoeuvrability is among the main advantages of a 3 wheel pushchair. The wheels are positioned close together allowing the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a standard four wheel pushchair. This makes them ideal for busy streets and shops. Some have small front wheels that can be locked and swivelled for additional maneuverability. The Roma Atlas, for example, has two wheels positioned close to each other at the front, and a clever lock that swivels to give the ability to maneuver like a 3 wheel Stroller set-wheeler, but with added stability.
Many of our most loved 3 wheelers are able to be converted from pram, stroller or car-seat and toddler seats as your child develops. This is great when you plan to travel together as a family, or take frequent trips to the store. The Baby Jogger Nipper is a great illustration. It features Hauck airwheels XL, a 360-degree swivel lockable wheel, and a suspension which allows it to be used on all terrains.
Another option is the ickle Bubba Nipper which is an all-terrain pushchair with a great suspension and large puncture-proof tyres that allow it to be used for off-road excursions and smooth city pavements. It can be used from the beginning with the reversible seat, or carrycot compatible. It also has a one-handed fold for easy storage in the boot and for airport travel.
It's important to choose the right wheels for a pushchair based on where it will be used most. Moulded wheels work well in the city, but not on more rough terrain. If you plan to move your pushchair off of roads, you should consider pneumatic tyres. They can handle rough terrain.
For a pushchair that's designed to work in both rural and urban environments take a look at our top-rated Bugaboo Fox 5 All-Terrain pushchair. It comes with all the suspension and large wheels you'd expect from an all-terrain pushchair, but it's also an urban pushchair that's super lightweight with a lockable front wheel.
Stability
You can increase the stability of your buggy by looking for certain features. Certain models come with an swiveling front wheel that is locked to provide additional stability when driving on rough terrain. This can be particularly useful if you are going to be using your pushchair off-road or running, as it gives you the confidence to go off on different surfaces with ease.
Suspension is a great feature to ensure stability. It makes your buggy more comfortable to ride, both for your child and you especially on rough terrain. Some brands offer the option to change the tyres on their pushchairs to tailor it to the terrain you'll be using it on.
If you're looking for a 3-wheeled pushchair that will perform well on any terrain, you should consider buying a model that has air-filled tyres. These wheels will offer smoother rides over bumps, and are less likely to be punctured than solid wheels. They also permit you to navigate tracks that aren't paved and can carry your buggy on various surfaces, including grass, sand, and mud.
All-terrain strollers tend to be larger than standard strollers however, there are some excellent options that don't sacrifice on maneuverability or stability. One of our top picks is the UPPAbaby Ridge which comes with a range of impressive features that make it suitable for both off-road walking and jogging (once your child is old enough). They include large, foam-filled, never-flat tyres and adjustable suspension and a quick one-handed folding.
Another great all-terrain pushchair is the Bugaboo Fox 5 - this is similar to the UPPAbaby Ridge and features an excellent suspension, large puncture-proof tyres and a one-handed fold. It's also compatible with a large range of car seats and is able to accommodate the infant carrier or carrycot as well. It's heavier than other 3 wheeler stroller-wheelers, but it's still a great option for parents who wish to have their pushchair capable of traveling on any terrain.
Weight
The downside of strollers with three wheels is that they can be heavy, especially when you are required to traverse rough terrain and kerbs. The bigger rear wheels on a 3 wheel tandem stroller-wheeler make up a higher total weight than 4-wheelers, which means you may need more strength to lift them, especially when folding them.
All-terrain models are a great option for those who want a pushchair that can cope with rough terrain or rocky tarmac. These models typically come with particular features, such as an extremely sturdy suspension system as well as large puncture-proof tires. Increasingly, brands are designing all-terrain pushchairs with foam or gel-filled tyres that are designed not to go flat and therefore don't need inflation.
UPPAbaby's Ridge all-terrain pushchair has an excellent selection of parent-friendly features that allow it to tackle many types of terrain easily. The Ridge all-terrain pushchair is equipped with numerous features that are suitable for parents, such as the possibility of locking its front wheel, a simple fold that is one-handed, a large basket, and adjustable handlebar. MFM reviewer Becky said that the Ridge is "very good for woodland walks, gravel roads and market town cobbles".
Another brand that offers an all-terrain pushchair range is iCandy. Their latest all-terrain model the Core, is suitable for babies from birth and is coupled with a carrycot or car seat adaptors. The iCandy Core has a host of features that will make it a fantastic all-terrain pushchair - including large foam-filled, never-flat tyres as well as a great suspension system. The Core is a bit heavier than other pushchairs that are all-terrain, but it's still light enough to be maneuverable on more rough terrain.
Folding
If you're looking for a pushchair that will take the roughest of terrain, you may think about an all-terrain model. This type of pushchair features large wheels on both the front and rear to aid in navigating rough off-road terrain. Often they'll have more robust suspension as well as more puncture-proof tyres to prevent them from becoming clogged with sticks, grass or mud.
One excellent example of this kind of pushchair is the Mountain Buggy Ridge. This all-terrain pushchair comes with many amazing features, such as a an easy suspension, a large basket, one-handed steering, and a quick one-handed folding. It also works with the car seat and carrycot (with adaptors) and can be used from as early as six months.
