The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

If you regularly walk through rough terrain or would like to exercise in a pushchair with three wheeler pushchairs wheels, it's the best option. They are ideal if you want a buggy that will be able to handle any terrain, from busy high streets to woodland tracks.

Find models with front wheels that can be locked or turned. This gives you more flexibility. The rear and front wheels that are larger provide an easier ride on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is one of the key benefits of a 3 wheel pushchair. The wheels are positioned close to each other, allowing the chassis to turn and twist much more easily than a standard 4 wheel pushchair, making them perfect for busy streets and shopping. Some even have a pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled for additional maneuverability when required. The Roma Atlas, for example, has two wheels positioned closely together at the front and an ingenious swivel lock that gives the ability to maneuver like three wheels, with added stability.

A lot of our most well-loved 3 wheelers can be transformed from stroller, pram, toddler seat and car-seat carrier as your child grows. This is a great option if you're planning on travelling with your family or on frequent shopping trips. One example is the Baby Jogger Nipper pushchair that features Hauck's XL air wheels and a 360 swivel lockable front wheel and suspension that makes it suitable for all types of terrain, including off-road, and jogging once your baby is old enough to start jogging with you!

The ickle Bubba Nipper is a different option. It's an all-terrain stroller that has large puncture-proof tyres as well as a great suspension that makes it suitable for both off-road excursions and smooth city pavements. It is suitable for use from birth (in the reversible seat unit or with a carrycot compatible) and has a handy one-handed fold that is ideal for boot storage and airport travel.

The wheels you choose for your pushchair is essential depending on where you'll be using it the most. Moulded wheels are fine for city use but will not perform well on more rough terrain. If you are planning to take your pushchair off roads, you should consider pneumatic tyres. They can withstand rough terrain.

However, it's also a fantastic urban pushchair with a super lightweight frame, easy-to-use lockable front wheel, and a one-handed fold.

Stability

You can increase the stability of your buggy by looking for certain features. Certain models come with a swiveling front wheel that is locked in place to provide extra stability on uneven terrain. This is especially helpful when you intend to use your pushchair to jog or off-road. It can give you the confidence to navigate on different surfaces.

Another excellent stability feature is suspension - this makes your buggy more comfortable for both the baby and you, especially on uneven ground. Some brands also offer the option to swap out tyres with different sizes so that you can alter the performance of your pushchair to suit the type of terrain you will be riding it on.

If you're looking for a 3 wheeled pushchair that is able to perform on any terrain, think about purchasing a model with air-filled tyres. These wheels provide a smoother ride on bumps, and are less likely to be punctured than solid wheels. They also permit you to ride on tracks that are not paved and will transport your buggy on various surfaces, including dirt, grass, sand and mud.

All-terrain strollers tend to be wider than standard models however there are many great options that don't compromise on maneuverability or stability. One of our favorites is the UPPAbaby Ridge which has numerous impressive features that allow it to be used for both off-road walking and jogging (once your child is old enough).

Weight

The disadvantage of 3 wheeled strollers is that they are heavy, especially when you need to maneuver through bumpy terrain or kerbs. The larger rear facing 3 wheel stroller wheels of a 3-wheeler increase the overall weight, which is higher than the 4-wheeler. This means you will need more strength to lift them.

All-terrain models are a good option for those who want a pushchair that can cope with rough terrain or rocky tarmac. These models usually come with special features such as a sturdy suspension system and large puncture-proof tires. Brands are increasingly designing strollers that are all-terrain and have tyres that are filled with foam or gel to prevent them from going flat.

UPPAbaby's Ridge stroller is all-terrain and has a wide range of features that are designed to be child-friendly and will allow it to tackle various terrains easily.

Folding

This kind of pushchair will have large wheels both in the front and back, which will help you navigate bumpy, off-road terrain. They'll typically have more durable suspension as well as larger puncture resistant tyres, to avoid them getting blocked by sticks, grass or mud.

A good example of this type of pushchair is the Mountain Buggy Ridge.
