3 Wheel Buggies

Three-wheel buggies are stylish and sleek, with outstanding maneuverability. A lot of them come with seats made of fabric that have an incredibly comfortable lay flat bed and a perfect weight distribution, perfect for babies from birth.

The wheels are larger and often come with suspension for agile smooth movement over a variety of terrains. The only drawback is that they can be heavier and bulkier to store & transport.

Stability

Three wheel buggies are remarkably stable - they don't tip over as easily as four-wheeled pushchairs when going in a straight line and you'll find that you can manoeuvre them much more quickly and efficiently. If you turn or stop abruptly, they could lose their stability and fall over. Some manufacturers add an extra wheel to their 3-wheel buggy designs to increase the stability of the chassis.

You can also tackle off-road terrain using the additional wheel. Find models that have air-filled tires (also called pneumatic tyres) that can be used to handle off-road trails, sand, mud, and other surfaces like rocks and sand. They'll also have an adjustable front wheel that locks to add stability over really rough ground.

With the right design, engineering, and weight distribution these buggies can be turned on a dime - easy to steer using just one hand; have 360o front swivel wheels allowing mobility and agility to be effortless and easy to handle. They'll also be able to pass the same rigorous global stability standards and tests as 4-wheel buggies.

If you are in the market for a seat made of fabric that are breathable, they tend to be smaller in the frame as compared to modular seats. This means that your baby's center of gravity will be closer to the ground - instantly providing the smoothest ride.

Best known for its car seats, Maxi-Cosi has recently added a lightweight travel system and pushchair to its line-up with the striking Citylife. This 3-in-1 is ideal for urban living, and comes with a baby car seat or carrycot. It comes with four wheels and an exclusive pewter-black aluminum frame, which the brand describes as'slim' and compact. It's only 2cm wide than the Babyzen Yoyo.

Folding

There are many three wheel buggies that can be folded in a compact way to can fit into smaller spaces. A majority of these buggies are able to be folded with one hand and are easy to clean. The smallest models will have an easy adjustable height of the handlebars, while others may have an adjustable suspension as well as an expandable 50+ UV canopy. Some models may have large baskets and a brake lever that is quick-release.

The most reliable 3 wheel buggy to tackle rough terrain

A 3-wheel buggy will usually be more adept at dealing with off-road conditions better than one with four wheels, however both can be stuck in tight spots. However, choosing a model with larger wheels on both sides can help. This makes it easier to push them across rough terrain and can aid in getting up and down the steep slopes.

The brand new Roma Atlas has been praised by many for its astonishing agility despite its three-wheeled design. MFM reviewer Kath has tested it with her baby and reported that "it did really well on cobbles, bumpy surfaces gravel tracks, dirt roads and even a few hills."

Stella Stella, the brand new 3-wheel all-terrain buggy from Maxi-Cosi is a great alternative. It can be used from birth when used with a carrycot. It's slightly bigger than the lightweight 4-wheelers, but it has air-filled tires, three recline positions, and an easy fold with one hand.

Its main selling feature is its modularity - it's compatible across all the brand's infant strollers and car seats. This means you can create your ideal travel system for day-today or longer walks, using only the chassis as a starting point.

Tyres

The tyres on 3 wheel travel stroller wheel buggies are available in a variety of designs and materials, and each comes with its pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air offer a great performance and maneuverability, whereas foam-filled tyres are more durable. The kind of tyre you pick will depend on your lifestyle and where it is that you live.

If you intend to travel on unpaved roads or in rough terrain frequently, you might think about a three-wheeler that has more durable tyres. You should also consider the type of suspension that you require. A strong suspension is ideal for handling bumps and humps, however it can be heavy and increase the overall weight of your pushchair.

The size of the tyre can be important. Understanding the tyre size is important for safety, performance and durability. The combination of letters and numbers on a tyre sidewall may seem confusing until you get the hang of it, you'll be able to comprehend the tyre dimensions. A tyre having the size 185/70 R14 for instance indicates that it is a radial tire with a diameter of 185/70 and has 14-inch rim size.

In addition to being more durable, PU tires are lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber ones. If you're unsure if the tires on a pushchair are rubber or PU tires, you can test sliding the tires over a smooth and tied surface. If they slide easily then the tires are made from PU. If not, they are made of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a three-wheel buggy can make it more comfortable for your child since it will absorb any knocks or bumps that occur from rough terrain. Large wheels that are filled with air, and can be locked to ensure stability when jogging are also essential. This will allow your buggy to travel on off-road surfaces easily.

Depending on the type of buggy you're looking for There are a variety of choices to fit every lifestyle and budgets. For example, the Mountain Buggy pioneered all terrain agility with its three-wheel buggies. With the perfect geometry and engineering, their fabrics sling seat rests comfortably within the frame, as opposed to sitting on top like modular seats, offering the lowest centre of gravity and sitting at the right height for optimal weight distribution to easily tackle the kerb pops.

The Urban Glide 2 by Thule is another excellent option. It features an elegant design, a huge wheel that's easy to maneuver and is paired with an impressive suspension. It also has an adjustable handbrake that can be turned to make it easier of use. MFM reviewer Kath took this buggy to the test by taking it on a walk through rough ground and found that it was able to handle the terrain well saying that it 'navigates easily over grass, bumpy pavements, cobbles dirt tracks, and makes light work of getting up and down kerbs'.

The Roma Atlas is another popular off road option and similar to the Urban Glide 2, comes with a variety of colours to suit your style. It also comes with a movable handlebar and a large basket. You can also pick from a range of infant car seats to convert the buggy into a pram, including the stylishly designed carrycot plus(tm) that is a comfy lie-flat bed for newborns and babies up to 12 months old.

Safety

Having four wheels makes the pushchair much more stable, less likely to tip, and easier to maneuver. It is also more secure for your child as their weight is distributed more evenly across the frame of the pushchair.

A four-wheeled buggy has a lower center of gravity, which makes it easier to get over curbs and get up. The sling seat is affixed in the frame instead of over it as modular seats. This makes for a low-slung seating position, and a lighter buggy that can be easily manoeuvred.

If you're planning to run with your child, a 4-wheeler is the best option. It comes with a suspension system that allows the front wheel of the buggie to be independent from the rear one. This will allow you to navigate rough terrain or bumpy roads. However it is not the case that all 4 wheel buggies can be used for running. Mountain Buggies are the exception because they come with an exclusive suspension system that has been independently tested across all terrains.
