3 Wheeler Buggies A tri-wheeled stroller is ideal for off-roading and provides an easy ride for babies. They are also simpler to push and manoeuvre than a four-wheeler and are especially suitable for those with fabric slings or modular seat units that are placed in a tight position within the frame to provide the most efficient design and weight distribution. Stability Three-wheeled buggys are extremely stable, making them a great choice for off-road walking (especially when equipped with a seat unit that is all-terrain or off-road). These types of buggys typically have large front tires that can handle bumps, kerbs, and rough terrain. Some have a lockable wheels in the front to give you extra stability when driving on uneven terrain. It's important to remember that 3-wheel buggies have lower centers of gravity than the 4-wheeled versions, which could mean they can topple over more readily. The best 3-wheeled pushchairs are built with the perfect geometry to ensure that they remain stable in any condition. They should be able to turn at a whim and be able to steer with one hand, and feature a 360o swivelling front wheel which makes them ideal for manoeuvring and navigating difficult terrain. Look for models with pneumatic tyres. These are designed to handle nonpaved tracks, and are able to withstand rocks, mud, gravel, etc. Many all-terrain buggies feature an adjustable front wheel that can be locked to increase stability when working on extremely rough ground too. A tri-wheeled pram is a great option for runners and those who enjoy walking fast uphill. This is particularly true if you are planning to connect to a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is a great example, with a world-facing seat that reclines flat and features a more comfortable 5-point harness and storage space for all your equipment (plus an extendable 50+ sun hood). It's compact, lightweight and suitable for infants and can be used in conjunction with car seats or a carrycot. It also handles a bit of moderate jogging, but it's not designed for serious joggers. Weight If you are looking for a buggy to take on difficult terrain, you should pick one with big tires. These are made to handle grass, cobbles and dirt tracks with ease while providing smooth riding. They are also ideal for jogging because they come with built-in suspension and are able to climb up and down kerbs. However, the trade off is that they can be quite heavy to push. The most suitable 3 wheel buggy for rough terrain is the Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 (pictured above). This 3-wheel buggy has 16 rear wheels with a lockable swivel front wheel making it extremely maneuverable. It has air-filled tyres that require pumping up every now and then. It can accommodate children up until the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler loved the seat shape and she found steering it easy even with her three-year-old in the seat. Another option that is great is the Baby Jogger Versa GT, with a movable handlebar and a high-quality hood with 50+ UV protection. It is also easy to move kerbs upwards and downwards and fits in a small car boot. It can also be used as a pram that comes with a carrycot or infant car seat for newborns and toddlers. Fabric slings are placed within the frame, not on top like modular seats. This design has a lower centre of gravity at the perfect height, instantly making it easier to push and lighter to kerb pop (you should never underestimate how often you'll be doing that as new parents!) Seating There are a myriad of options for seating in three wheelers. For babies it is possible to use the included carrycot plus (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a cosy and comfortable lie flat bed that can be used both on and off the buggy) In addition, older babies and toddlers can use the world-facing or parent facing seat that is large and padded, and comes with adjustable ventilation. three wheel pushchair don't recline completely, but can be lowered down to the lowest setting. This should still allow your child to have plenty of headroom and space. A fabric sling is also available. It has the advantage that it is located within the frame, rather than on top as a modular seat. This results in a lower centre of gravity with perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, particularly over bumpy terrain and curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this kind of seat handled the obstacles. In addition to a large shopping basket, this type of buggy typically has some quite useful features, such as an extendable 50+ UV hood, an easy-to-use brake pedal, and some game-changing visibility lights that pop up from the handlebars and can be placed directly in front of the occupants to ensure their safety when they are tackling difficult terrain. If you're searching for a single baby buggy that can grow with your family There's a brand new sport™ that's the first of its kind to take a single newborn from day dot and then change to take two or even 3 after your baby has grown, all within the footprint of a single buggy. Stores The 3-wheeled frame is much more stable and can be pushed with one hand. It's also more suitable for terrain that is difficult. The shopping basket is smaller than a 4-wheeler. A high-quality ATP will come with pneumatic tyres with a padded grip for better comfort, and an excellent suspension. It will accommodate a car seat, which means you can use it from birth. MFM's reviewers have noticed that the 3-wheeler frame doesn't pass through all doors of their homes or small car boots – make sure to check the dimensions of the buggy when it's folded before purchasing if you're worried about space. It's worth looking for a 3-wheeler that can take two (or even 3!) This is the best choice for your future and will save you money. The iCandy Strawberry Sport is one of the most sought-after. It can be used from the day of birth as a single buggy, and later transformed into twin buggies after your baby starts to walk. Tyres These tyres cushion bumps and uneven surfaces to make your child's ride more comfortable. You'll find these on pushchairs, such as the Phil and Ted's Sport which MFM reviewer Kath discovered to provide “an amazing ride for my toddler”. She also said that the grippy tyres on it made it easier to handle cobbles and kerbs. These tyres can be difficult to maintain and will require air pressure regularly topped up. They are also more vulnerable to punctures than foam tyres so you'll need to ensure that you have repair kits, spare inner tube and pump handy when traveling with your buggy. PU tyres can be seen on more pushchairs than the air-filled tyres, yet they are still just as sturdy. You can recognise PU tire treads by their matte appearance and soft feel. They also glide well on even and tied surfaces. You can usually discern the distinction between air-filled and PU tires by running your hands over each one, if it feels hard then it's a rubber tyre, and if it slides then it's a PU. You can also confirm whether your buggy has PU tyres by sliding the tyres over a clean, flat surface – they'll be able to roll easily and fit snugly in their wheel hubs. Foam tyres can withstand the rough terrain that comes with high-performance buggies. This could make your buggy less stable as the foam will lose its springy quality. Additionally, these tyres may typically be noisy because they make a lot of noise when you turn and navigate your way through town.
