Three Wheeled Buggies
Whether you're looking for a buggy to run with or just a stroller that can be used for the neighborhood, three-wheeled buggies offer great mobility. Their compact design makes it easy to maneuver even in tight spaces.
For a smooth ride, opt for a pram with air-filled tyres and look for models with 360deg front swivel wheels. They are prone, however, to punctures. Make sure you have a repair set.
Sturdy frame
New figures show that three-wheeled buggies, that symbol of the decade that were more expensive than common sense, are in a steep decline. They have been replaced by four-wheelers that can handle a wider range of terrain, yet still look swanky and being easy to push.
The bigger the wheels are the more your buggy will be able to deal with bumpy surfaces and uneven pavements. The larger wheels, both front and rear allow you to maneuver and more stable while walking downhill or over difficult terrain.
MFM reviewer Kath tested the buggy with a newborn and a
3 wheeled travel system year old and found that it coped well with cobbles, grass rough roads, dirt tracks and kerbs. Kath said that "it is sturdy to push and very solid when going over difficult terrain. Its tyres, which are inflatable and require to be pumped regularly, have built-in suspension. This was extremely comfortable for my kids.
The size and shape of the seat is a further factor to consider. You'll want it to be large enough to accommodate your child's comfort and you will also want it to be able to recline for them to lie flat. Certain three-wheel buggies have the option of reclining completely, while others only allow for an adult facing one.
The Roma Atlas is a great alternative for off-road or wet walks. The buggy can be used as a one-person unit from birth, and then expands to accommodate two children as your family grows. It is suitable for infants and toddlers from birth to age 4, and includes a bumper with a rain cover, an upgraded 5-point harness, and a huge cushioned seat. Storage options are also great with a large basket and zip pockets on the hood, and a handy pouch at the rear of seat unit.
Wheels with larger diameter
Larger wheels mean that your buggy will be more stable on uneven terrain, which is ideal for buggies designed for off-road use. Additionally, they help you maneuver the pushchair in tight spaces. Many three wheeled buggies feature rotating front wheels that help you navigate around corners with ease, whereas others are specifically designed for running and have fixed front wheels that lock to increase the speed and stability with the speed at which they can be pushed. This is particularly useful when you bump against the kerb or a tree. The front wheel will lift slightly to keep it from hitting it.
Many
3 wheel pushchairs feature air-filled tyres, which means they are able to handle different terrains and are far more flexible than 4-wheeler. They also tend to be lighter. They are also more susceptible to punctures, so you will require repair kits and an spare inner tubes on hand.
Our top three-wheelers include the Mountain Buggy Core and Venicci Carbo Lux. Both of these buggies come with larger wheels that, as per MFM reviewer Kath, "perform really well on gravel tracks, grass and market town cobbles" and can easily go up and down kerbs. They also come with a suspension system that according to her "smoothes out bumps very effectively".
Buggies with larger wheels can be quite wide and can be difficult to fit into narrow spaces. This could be a problem if you use it as a jogger or have to squeeze through doorways that are narrow when traveling. Fortunately, many models come with small folding options that let you remove the front wheels to make compact storage.
Easy to Manoeuvre
A three-wheeler can be more comfortable to drive with a child. They are designed to ensure that the front wheels can turn on a dime, and are easy to maneuver, making them perfect for challenging terrain such as cobblestones, parks and bumpy roads. dirt tracks.
MFM reviewer Kath tested a
3 wheel stroller travel system wheeler with her newborn and toddler and stated: "The Terrain was a delight to maneuver on the terrain, with the swivel front wheel particularly useful. I was also impressed with how well it coped with bumps, particularly when using the hand-operated brake. It was extremely stable when going downhill or on uneven terrain."
The only downside of this amazing maneuverability is that the
3 wheeled buggies wheel buggy's larger wheels do sometimes mean it has to struggle in tight spaces - something to keep in mind especially if you live in a metropolitan area. If this is an issue then a 4-wheel buggy may be better for you.
