3 Wheeler Buggies A three-wheel buggy is great for rough terrain, offering a smooth ride for your baby. They can also be easier to move and push than a four-wheel buggy, especially if they have fabric sling seats or modular seat units that are positioned snugly in the frame, offering the best geometry and weight distribution. Stability A three-wheel buggy has excellent stability, which is why it's a good option for off-road walks (especially with an all terrain or off-road style seat). They typically have larger front wheels that can deal well with kerbs and bumps and rough ground. Some even have a lockable front wheel to give extra stability when driving on uneven terrain. It is important to remember that 3-wheel buggies can have a lower centre of gravity than models with four wheels, which can mean that they fall over more easily. The best 3-wheeled pushchairs have been built with the perfect geometry to ensure they remain solid in all conditions. They should be able turn on a dime and be easy to steer with one hand. They also come with an incline of 360o for the front wheel, which is ideal for maneuvering over difficult terrain. For extremely difficult surfaces you should look for a model with air-filled tyres, also known as pneumatic tyres. These are designed to handle roads that are not paved and can deal with dirt, gravel, and so on. A lot of all-terrain buggies have an swivelling wheel at the front that can be locked to provide extra stability when you're dealing with rough terrain. A 3-wheel stroller is an ideal option for runners and those who prefer to walk quickly and uphill, particularly when you plan to attach a carrycot or car seat. The Roma Atlas is an excellent model. It has a flat-reclining seat with 5-point harness and plenty of storage space to keep all your equipment (plus the ability to extend 50+ of the sun hood). It's lightweight, compact and suitable for babies and can be used with the use of a car seat or carrycot. three wheel pushchair can also handle some light jogging, but isn't designed for serious runners. Weight If you're seeking a buggy that can tackle difficult terrain, then you should select one with large tires. These are designed to handle grass, cobbles and dirt tracks with ease, while still providing a smooth ride. These are also great for jogging because they have built-in suspension and are able to climb up and down kerbs. However, the drawback is that they are quite heavy to push. The Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 is the most suitable 3 wheel buggy you can use on rough terrain (pictured above). This 3-wheeler is highly mobile due to its 16 rear wheels and a lockable front wheel. It has air tyres which require pumping occasionally, and it can carry children up to the age of 3. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler was awed by the seat shape and she found steering it easy even with her 3 year old in the seat. Another great option is the Baby Jogger Versa GT, which has an adjustable handlebar and a high-quality hood with 50+ UV protection. It's also simple to get up and down kerbs and fit in small car boots. It can be used as a stroller and a carrycot for newborns or toddlers. Fabric slings are placed within the frame, not on top like modular seats. This design provides a lower centre of gravity at the perfect height, making it easier to push and lighter to kerb pop (you cannot overestimate how often you'll be doing this as a new parent!) Seating There are many alternatives for seating options in 3 wheelers. The included carrycot plus is ideal for a newborn (which MFM reviewer Alice describes as a comfy and cozy lie-flat bed that can be used both on and off the buggy). Older children and toddlers will enjoy the spacious and comfortable seat unit with adjustable ventilation. It's worth noting that the seats aren't fully reclined, but they can be adjusted to the lowest level which will give your child plenty of headroom and space to move around. A fabric sling seat is also available, which offers the advantage of being set snugly inside the frame, rather than over the top of a modular seat and this provides a lower center of gravity and a perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, especially on bumpy terrain or over curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this style of seat dealt with the obstacles. In addition to a large shopping basket, this kind of buggy usually has pretty useful features such as an extendable 50+ UV hood, an easy-to-use brake pedal, and some games-changing visibility lights that appear from the handlebar and can be positioned in front of the occupants to improve their safety when tackling tricky terrain. If you're seeking a buggy that will grow along with your family, the sport(tm), a world-first designed to accommodate the newborn, and later be modified to accommodate three or four children as they grow. All within one footprint. Storage The 3-wheeled model is more sturdy and can be moved with just one hand. It's also ideal for terrains that are difficult to navigate. However, it means that the shopping basket doesn't hold the same amount as a 4-wheeled buggy. A top-quality ATP will come with pneumatic tyres with a padded grip for added comfort, and a superb suspension. It should also be able to take a carrycot and car seat so you can use it from the moment you are born. MFM's reviewers found that the 3-wheeler frames didn't pass through their doors at home or car boot. If you're worried about space, make sure you check the dimensions when the buggy is folded prior to purchasing. It's worth looking for 3-wheelers that can accommodate 2 (or even 3!) This is the best option for your future and can save you money. The iCandy Strawberry Sport is among the most sought-after. It can be used from the day of birth as a single buggy and later converted into twin buggies after your baby is walking. Tyres These tyres absorb bumps and uneven surfaces to make your child's journey more comfortable. These are included on pushchairs such as the Phil & Ted's Sport, which MFM reviewer Kath said provided "an outstanding ride for her toddler". She also said that the grippy tires of the Phil & Ted's Sport made it simple for her to negotiate the kerbs and other obstacles. These tyres are sometimes difficult to maintain their inflation and need to be filled regularly. These tyres are prone to punctures, which is why you should always carry a repair kit and spare inner tube when you're out and about. PU tyres can be seen on more pushchairs than the air-filled tyres, yet they're still as durable. You can recognise PU tyres by their matte appearance and soft, smooth feel. They also slide across flat and tidied surfaces. If you run your hand over the tyres, then you can tell if they are PU or rubber. If it feels like it's moving, then it is a PU. You can also check whether your buggy is equipped with PU tyres by sliding them across an even, smooth surface. They should roll smoothly and fit comfortably into wheel hubs. Foam tyres are often used in high-performance buggies and joggers since they are able to cope with the rough terrain associated with this type of pushchair. The downside is that the foam can compress and make your buggy feel less stable because it loses its springy quality. Additionally, these tyres may often be noisy as they generate a lot of noise when you turn and make your way through town.
