A New Trend In 3 Wheel Pushchairs
3 Wheel Pushchairs
Whether you're an avid jogger or simply looking for an easier stroller 3 wheel pushchairs offer it all. Unlike jogging buggies which often have large wheels specifically designed for paved tracks tricycles equipped with air-filled tyres are able to tackle markets and woodland walks cobbles in equal measure.
Large wheels, however, can make certain models heavy and bulky so check that it folds compactly and won't take up all your boot space.
Stability
Parents are often frightened by stories about three-wheel pushchairs that tip over. However, this is typically due to poor or poorly built models. It is crucial to test the stability of a three-wheeler by physically trying it out. Also, you should consider how easy it is to change direction or turn with the front wheel only and how quickly it is possible to do it.
If you plan to use your pushchair on rough terrain, select an option with air-filled tires (also known as pneumatic tyres). They are able to take on the bumps and lumps of muddy paths or gravel tracks. These tyres can handle the bumps and bumps of muddy pathways or gravel tracks much better than plastic wheels that have been moulded and give your child a comfortable ride. Some models come with locks on the front that can be used on rough terrain.
All-terrain pushchairs tend to be heavier than standard four-wheeled buggies which is why you'll need to consider how much space they'll occupy in your car's boot and if you'll be able to lift it up and down stairs when folded. It can be a challenge to lift them, so you should test them in person to gauge how heavy they are.
