The 10 Scariest Things About 3 Wheel Pushchairs

3 Wheel Pushchairs

Whether you're an avid jogger or simply looking for an easier stroller, 3 wheel running stroller wheel pushchairs have it all. Contrary to jogging buggies that typically have large wheels specifically made for pavements 3 wheel double stroller wheel prams with tyres that are filled with air can handle the woods and market town cobbles in equal measure.

The large wheels, however, can make some models heavy and bulky so check that it folds compactly and won't take up all the space in your boot.

Stability

Many parents are dissuaded from buying three wheel pushchairs by stories of them falling over, however, this is usually due to poor quality or poorly designed models. It is important to test the stability of a three wheel pushchair-wheeler by physically trying it out. Also, you should think about how fast you can change direction with the single front wheel and how easy it is to do so.

If you're planning on using your pushchair off-road, opt for a model that has air-filled tyres (sometimes called pneumatic tyres) that are able to handle rough terrain. These tyres are more resilient to bumps and sand on muddy pathways or gravel roads than the plastic wheels. They provide a more comfortable ride for your child. Some models come with an lockable wheel on the front, which can be used to navigate rough terrain.

All-terrain pushchairs are heavier than standard four-wheeled buggies which is why you'll have to think about how much space they'll occupy in your car's boot, and if you'll be capable of lifting it up and down stairs when folded. They can also be quite heavy to lift, so it's worth trying one in person if possible to determine how much effort you'll need to put in to get the buggy off the ground.

UPPAbaby's Ridge, a three-wheeled pram with a car-seat attachment, is a great example of a stable, maneuverable pram. It features a front-facing seat that can be connected to an UPPAbaby carrycot, or you can attach infant car seats with adaptors. Its large rear wheels come with the 'never-flat' tyres filled with foam which make it simple to navigate rough terrain. The smooth suspension and adjustable handlebar also ensure that your child will be comfortable.

Manoeuvrability

Three-wheeled strollers are simpler to maneuver and turn than four-wheel strollers since they have two wheels in the back and one at the front. They are ideal for getting around narrow city streets and crowded supermarket aisles. A lot of 3-wheeled pushchairs have a lock feature on the front wheel to improve their ability to tackle narrow spaces and corners.

Another benefit of a three-wheel pushchair is that it can tackle off-road terrain better than standard strollers and prams. For example, iCandy's Core offers a range of features that make it perfect for trips to the countryside with your little one.

Folding

When not in use, most 3 wheeler buggy-wheel pushchairs fold easily and compactly to fit into small car boot spaces or under the stairs.

Off-road

A lot of pushchairs are unable to handle bumpy terrain such as cobbles, rough paths, and tree roots but 3-wheeled buggies are better equipped to navigate these types of terrain. They typically come with larger rear wheels and often have a lockable front wheel that can also rotate to navigate through difficult terrain. This means you can swiftly get in and out of narrow gaps, navigate the most difficult kerbs easily and remain in control even on more difficult routes.
