3 Wheel Buggies

Three-wheel buggies look stylish and sleek, and have great maneuverability. Many of them come with an sling made of fabric with a cosy lay flat bed, which is ideal for weight distribution and are suitable starting at birth.

The wheels are larger, and they also often come with suspension for agile smooth movements on different terrains. The only downside to these wheels is that they can be more bulky and heavy to transport and store.

Stability

Three wheel buggies are extremely stable - they don't tip over as easily as pushchairs that have four wheels when traveling in a straight line and you'll find that you can maneuver them more quickly and effortlessly. If you turn or stop abruptly, they may lose stability and even tip over. To avoid this, certain manufacturers add an extra wheel to their 3 wheel buggy designs to improve the stability of the chassis.

You can also tackle off-road terrain by adding an extra wheel. Look for models with air-filled tires (also known as pneumatic tyres) that are able to take on off-road paths, sand and mud, and other surfaces such as rocks and sand. These models also come with wheels that lock on the front, which will increase stability on rough terrain.

The buggies are easy to maneuver and agile, thanks to a 360o front swivel wheel. They'll also be able to pass the same rigorous global stability standards and tests as the 4-wheel buggies.

If you are in the market for a fabric seat, these tend to be lower in the frame compared to modular seats. This means that your baby's center of gravity will be closer to the ground, instantly providing a smoother ride.

Maxi-Cosi is best known for its car seats, but it has recently expanded its product line with the Citylife, a lightweight travel system and pushchair. The model is designed for urban living and can be used for newborns with a carrycot or infant car seat. It comes with four wheels as well as a unique pewter-black aluminium frame, which the brand describes as'slim and compact 3 wheel stroller. It's smaller at 2cm than the Babyzen Yoyo.

Folding

There's a wide selection of 3 wheeler pushchairs from birth wheel buggies that fold compactly to fit in smaller space. Many can be folded with just one hand, and are simple to wash down. The smallest models will come with a basic adjustable height of the handlebars, while others may feature an adjustable suspension or an extended 50+ UV canopy. They may also feature an enormous, spacious basket and a quick-release brake lever.

The most efficient 3 wheeler for rough terrain

A 3 wheel stroller set-wheel buggy will usually be more able to deal with off-road conditions than a 4-wheel model, although both can get stuck in tight spots. A model with bigger front and rear wheels will aid. This makes them easier to push across rough terrain and will often help with moving up and down steep kerbs.

One option is the brand new Roma Atlas, which has been praised for its agile handling despite its 3-wheel design. MFM reviewer Kath tried it out with her infant and said that "it did really well on cobbles, bumpy surfaces and dirt roads, gravel tracks, and a few hills."

Another alternative is the new all-terrain 3 wheel buggy from car seat brand Maxi-Cosi named Stella. It is suitable for babies from birth if used with a carrycot. It's slightly bigger than the lightweight 4-wheelers, but it features air-filled tires with three recline positions and a one-handed fold.

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

Tyres

The tyres on 3 wheel buggies are available in a variety of styles and materials, and each comes with its pros and cons. For instance, air-filled tyres offer a great performance and a smooth ride, whereas foam-filled tyres last longer. The type you pick will depend on your lifestyle and where you live.

For example, if you intend to frequently travel on rough or unpaved terrain, you may think about a 3 wheel stroller cheap-wheeler that has sturdier tires. Think about the type of suspension you require. Strong suspensions are useful for tackling bumps and humps but they can also be heavy, adding to the overall weight.

Another crucial aspect to take into consideration is the size of the tyre. Knowing how to determine the sizing of a tyre is essential to ensure safety, performance, and durability. The combination of numbers and letters on a tyre's sidewall can seem initially, but decoding it allows you to understand the dimensions of the tyre. A tyre with an 185/70 size R14, for example indicates that it is a radial tire in 185/70 and has a 14-inch rim diameter.

In addition to being more durable, PU tires are lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber ones. If you're unsure whether the tires of a pushchair are rubber or PU, try sliding the tires on an even surface. If they slide easily then the tires are made of PU. If not, they are made of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a 3 wheel buggy is an important aspect to consider as it will absorb the bumps and knocks of rough terrain, making it much more comfortable for your baby. Large wheels that are air-filled and can be locked to ensure stability while jogging are crucial. This will enable your buggy to maneuver over off-road surfaces with ease.

Depending on the type of buggie you're seeking There are options to suit all lifestyles and budgets. The Mountain Buggy, for example was the first to introduce all-terrain agility with three-wheel buggies. With perfect geometry and engineering, their fabrics sling seat is tucked away inside the frame as opposed to on top like modular seats, providing a lower centre of gravity and sitting at the right height for the best weight distribution, allowing it to easily take on the kerb pops.

Another option that is worth considering is the Urban Glide 2 from Thule that has a sleek design with a massive, manoeuvrable front wheel, excellent suspension, and an easy-to-use handbrake with a twist. MFM reviewer Kath put this buggy through its trials by going for a ride on a rough terrain. She found that it handled it really well and claimed that it "navigates over bumpy grass, sidewalks, cobbles and dirt tracks, and even allows you to easily go up and down kerbs".

The Roma Atlas, like the Urban Glide 2 is a popular off-road option. It is available in a range of colors that will match your style. It also has an adjustable handlebar, a large basket and an ultraviolet hood that is 50+. You can also pick from a selection of infant car seats that transform the buggy into pram. This includes the elegantly designed Carrycot Plus(tm) that is a comfortable lie-flat mattress for babies and infants up to 12 month old.

Safety

The presence of four wheels makes the buggy more stable and less likely to tip, and easier to handle. It can also be safer for your baby as their weight is distributed more evenly throughout the frame of the pushchair.

A four-wheel buggy also tends to have a lower center of gravity, making it more easy to roll up and over curbs. The fabric sling seat sits inside the frame rather than sitting on top like modular seats. This creates a low seating position and a lighter buggy that can be easily maneuverable.

If you're looking to run with your child, a 4-wheeler is the ideal option. It has an suspension system that allows the front wheel of the buggie to move independently from the rear one. This allows you to tackle rough terrains or bumpy roads. However there are some limitations to four-wheel buggies can be used for running. Mountain Buggies are the exception because they come with an exclusive suspension system that has been tested independently across all types of terrain.
