3 wheeled pushchair Wheel Buggies

3 wheel buggies offer excellent maneuverability, and are a stylish, sleek frame. Many of them come with a fabric sling with a comfortable lay flat bed, which is ideal for weight distribution and are suitable for babies from the age of.

The wheels are bigger and, in many cases, come with suspension for agile smooth movement on various terrains. The only downside to these wheels is that they may be bulkier and heavier to store and transport.

Stability

Three wheel buggies are extremely stable and don't tip over as easily as four-wheeled pushchairs when traveling in a straight line. Also, you'll find that you can move them more quickly and efficiently. If you attempt to turn or stop suddenly they'll lose stability and may tip over. Some manufacturers add an additional wheel to their 3-wheel buggy designs to increase the stability of the chassis.

The extra wheel also helps you tackle off-road terrain. Choose models that have air-filled tires (also called pneumatic tyres) that are able to take on off-road paths, sand and mud, and other surfaces, such as rock and sand. These models will also feature wheels that lock in the front to improve stability over rough terrain.

The buggies are easy to maneuver and agile, thanks to a 360o front swivel wheel. They will also pass the same stability standards worldwide and test as 4-wheel buggies.

If you're looking for a fabric sling seat, then they tend to be set lower in the frame than modular seats, so that your baby's centre of gravity is closer to the ground which means a smoother ride and a lighter kerb pop (you do not need to apply as much pressure or effort to get the buggy over and up a Kerb).

Best known for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added a light pushchair 3 wheels and travel system to its product line with the eye-catching Citylife. This 3-in-1 is perfect for urban life, and comes with a baby car seat or carrycot. It has 4 wheels and has a unique pewter black aluminium frame, which the company claims is 'light and compact'. It's only 2cm wider than the Babyzen Yoyo.

Folding

There are a lot of three wheel buggies that can be folded down to fit into smaller spaces. Many of these buggies can be folded with one hand and are easy-to-clean. The smallest models will feature a simple height adjustment for the handlebar, whereas others may have an adjustable suspension as well as an extended 50+ UV canopy. Certain models may come with a large basket and a brake lever that is quick-release.

The best 3 wheeler for rocky terrain

A 3-wheeled buggy is usually better equipped to deal with off-road conditions as compared to a 4-wheeled model, though both may get stuck in tight corners. However, choosing a model with bigger wheels both front and back will help. This allows you to push them across rough terrain and can assist you in climbing up and down the steep slopes.

One option is the brand new Roma Atlas, which has been praised for its agile handling despite its 3-wheel design. MFM reviewer Kath tested it with her infant and 3-year-old son and reported that "it handles really well over cobbles, bumpy pavements, gravel tracks and dirt roads, as well as on a few hills."

Another alternative is the new all-terrain 3 wheel buggy made by car seat brand Maxi-Cosi, called Stella. It's suitable from birth when used in conjunction with the carrycot and is a smaller than the light 4wheelers (with an impressively slim 54cm wide frame) but it comes with big air-filled tyres. It also has 3 wheel double buggy recline positions, and a quick one-hand fold.

Its primary selling point is its modularity, though it's compatible with all of the brand's infant car seats and strollers. This means that you can design your ideal travel system for day-to-day or longer walks, using just the chassis as a starting point.

Tyres

The tyres for 3 wheel buggies are available in many styles and materials. Each has its own pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air offer a great performance and a smooth ride, whereas foam-filled tyres last longer. The type of tyre you choose will be determined by your lifestyle and the place it is that you live.

For instance, if intend to frequently travel on rough or unpaved terrain, you may be interested in an all-wheeler with more durable tires. You should also consider the type of suspension that you require. The suspensions that are strong are great to deal with humps and bumps but they can also be heavy, adding to the overall weight.

The size of the tyre can be crucial. Knowing how to read the size of the tyre is crucial for safety, performance and durability. The combination of numbers and letters on the sidewalls of tyres can appear confusing however, once you understand it, you will be able to understand the tyre dimensions. For example, a tyre size of '185/70 R14 is a sign that the tire is a 185/70 radial with a 14 inch rim diameter.

In addition to being more durable, PU tires are also lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber ones. If you aren't sure if the tires of a pushchair are rubber or PU, simply slide the tires on the surface with a smooth surface. If they slide easily then the tires are made of PU. If not, then they are made of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a three-wheeled buggy makes it more comfortable for your child as it will absorb any knocks or bumps that occur from rough terrain. Large wheels that are air-filled and can be locked to ensure stability while jogging are important. This will allow your buggy to navigate off-road surfaces with ease.

Based on the type of buggie you're seeking, there are choices to fit every lifestyle and budgets. For example the Mountain Buggy pioneered all terrain agility in a 3 wheel double buggy-wheel buggies. With the perfect geometry and engineering their sling seat made of fabric is tucked away within the frame, as opposed to sitting on top like modular seats, offering the lowest centre of gravity and sitting at the ideal height for the best weight distribution that allows it to easily handle the kerb pops.

Another great option is the Urban Glide 2 from Thule that boasts a sleek style with a massive, manoeuvrable front wheel, excellent suspension and an easy-to-use handbrake with a twist. MFM reviewer Kath put this buggy to the test by taking it on an excursion through the rough terrain and she found that it was able to handle the terrain well. She said that it 'flies easily over grass, bumpy cobbles, pavements, dirt tracks and even makes light work of going up and down the kerbs'.

The Roma Atlas is another popular off-road model and, similar to the Urban Glide 2, comes in a variety of colors to suit your style. It also comes with an adjustable handlebar and a spacious basket. You can also select from a variety of infant car seats to transform the buggy into a pram, including the elegantly designed carrycot plus(tm) that is a cosy lie flat bed for newborns and babies from 12 months to 12 years old.

Safety

Having four wheels makes the buggy more stable and less likely to tip over and easier to maneuver. It also makes it safer for your child because the weight of their body is evenly distributed across the frame.

A four-wheeled vehicle has a lower center of gravity, making it easier to pop over curbs and climb up. The fabric sling seat sits inside the frame rather than sitting on top like modular seats. This makes for a low-slung seating position and a lighter buggy that is more easily maneuvered.

However, if you want to go out for a run with your baby then a 4-wheeler might be better suited since it will have a suspension system that allows the front wheel to move independently of the back one which allows you to navigate bumpy roads and rough terrain Be aware that not all 4 wheel buggies are suitable for running (most are NOT, such as the Phil and Teds). The exception is Mountain Buggies which have a specially-designed suspension system that has been tested independently on all types of terrain.
