3 wheeled Pushchair Wheel Pushchairs
Three wheel pushchairs are perfect for anyone who is a jogger or needs a more flexible stroller. Contrary to jogging buggies that typically come with large wheels that are that are designed for paths 3 wheel prams with air-filled tyres can tackle markets and woodland walks cobbles alike.
Certain models are heavy and bulky due to their huge wheels. Make sure they fold up compactly and don’t occupy your entire boot space.
Stability
Many parents are put off three wheel pushchairs by stories of them falling over — however, this is usually due to cheap or poorly designed models. It is essential to test the stability of a 3-wheeler by putting it to the test physically. Also, you should consider how it is easy to change direction or swerve using the single front wheel, and how quickly it is possible to do it.
If you plan to use your pushchair on rough terrain, choose one with air-filled tires (also called pneumatic tyres). They are able to take on the bumps and lumps that come with gravel tracks or muddy paths. These tyres will be more resistant to bumps and bumps on muddy pathways or gravel roads than the plastic wheels. They offer a smoother ride for your child. Some models have an adjustable front wheel that can be used when you’re going over really rough ground too.
All-terrain buggies are heavier than standard four-wheeled buggies. You may want to take into consideration the amount of space they will take up in the boot of your car and if you’ll be able to lift them up and down stairs once folded. They can also be quite heavy to lift, so it’s worth trying the one on your own to gauge how much effort you’ll need to put into lifting the buggy off the ground.
