3 Wheel Buggies

3 wheel buggies offer superb maneuverability, and are a stylish, streamlined frame. Many of them have seats made of fabric that have an incredibly comfortable lying flat bed and excellent weight distribution that is ideal from birth.

The wheels are larger and typically have suspension to ensure smooth, swift mobility on various terrains. The only downside to these wheels is that they may be more bulky and heavy to store and transport.

Stability

Three-wheel buggies provide lots of stability. They don't fall over more easily when driving straight. You can also maneuver more swiftly. If you stop or turn abruptly, they can lose stability and tip over. This is why certain manufacturers add an extra wheel to their 3 wheel buggy designs to improve the stability of the chassis.

You can also conquer off-road terrain using the additional wheel. Find models that have air-filled tires (also called pneumatic tyres) that are able to take on off-road routes, sand and mud, and other surfaces like rocks and sand. They'll also usually have an adjustable front wheel that locks to give stability over rough terrain.

With the correct geometry, engineering and weight distribution these buggies can turn on a dime - easy to steer with one hand; have 360o front swivel wheels that allow mobility and agility to be effortless and light to handle. They'll also be able to pass the same rigorous global stability standards and tests as the 4-wheel buggies.

If you're looking for a cloth sling seat, 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 - instantly delivering a smoother ride and a lighter kerb pop (you don't have to exert as much pressure or effort to lift the buggy over and up a kerb).

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

Folding

There are a lot of 3 wheel all terrain pushchair wheel buggies that can be folded in a compact way to can fit into smaller spaces. A lot of these buggies can be folded with one hand and are easy-to-clean. Some of the smallest models have a simple height-of-handlebar adjustment, whereas others come with adjustable suspensions and an ultraviolet canopy of 50+ that can be extended. They may also have large, spacious baskets and a brake lever that is quick-release.

The most efficient 3 wheel buggy for tackling rough terrain

A 3-wheeler is likely to be better able to cope with off-road terrain than one with four wheels, however both can be stuck in tight spots. But, picking a model with larger wheels both front and back can help. This allows them to push across rough terrain and can help in moving up and down the high kerbs.

The brand new Roma Atlas has been praised by many for its surprising agility despite its 3-wheeled design. MFM reviewer Kath has tested it with her baby and said that "it did really well on cobbles, bumpy surfaces and gravel tracks, dirt roads, and some hills."

Another great alternative is the newest 3 wheel stroller cheap-wheel buggy that is all-terrain from Maxi-Cosi's car seat brand, called Stella. It's suitable from birth when used in conjunction with the carrycot. It's a slightly larger than the lighter 4wheelers (with a surprisingly slim 54cm wide frame) but has big air-filled tyres, three recline positions, and a quick one-hand fold.

Its most appealing feature is its modularity - it's compatible with all of the brands' infant strollers and car seats. You can create your own travel system, regardless of whether you're looking to go for a shorter walk or a longer one, by using the chassis.

Tyres

The tyres for 3 wheel buggies are available in many styles and materials. Each one has its own pros and cons. Air-filled tyres, for example provide a smooth ride and great manoeuvrability while foam-filled tires are more durable. The type of tyre you choose will depend on your lifestyle and where you reside.

For instance, if are planning to travel frequently on rough or muddy terrain, you might be interested in a 3 wheel pushchairs-wheeler that has sturdier tires. You should also think about the type of suspension that you require. Strong suspension is useful to handle bumps and humps, but it can be heavy and increase the overall weight of your pushchair.

Another aspect to be considered is the size of the tyre. Knowing how to understand tyre sizing is vital for maintaining safety as well as performance and durability. The combination of numbers and letters on the sidewalls of tyres can seem confusing initially, but decoding it allows you to understand the dimensions of the tyre. For instance, a tyre size of "185/70 R14' means 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 on a pushchair are made of rubber or PU, simply slide the tires on an even surface. If the tires slide smoothly, they are made of PU. If not, they are made of rubber.

Suspension

The suspension of a 3 wheel buggy is an important component to look for because it will absorb the bumps and knocks of rough terrain making it much more comfortable for your baby. Having large wheels, which are filled with air and can be locked for stability during jogging is also important as this will ensure that your buggy is able to navigate off road surfaces easily.

There are many options for buggy designs to fit every budget and style of life. The Mountain Buggy, for example, pioneered all-terrain agility in three-wheel buggies. Their sling seats made of fabrics are designed with perfect design and engineering to fit comfortably inside the frame instead of on top like modular seats. This provides a lower center of gravity, and allows it to be placed at the right height to distribute weight easily to tackle kerbs.

Another option that is worth considering is the Urban Glide 2 from Thule which boasts a sleek design with a massive, manoeuvrable front wheel, a great suspension and an easy-to-use handbrake that twists. MFM reviewer Kath took this buggy to the test by taking it on an excursion through the rough terrain and she was impressed with how it handled the terrain really well saying that it 'navigates easily over grass, bumpy pavements, cobbles dirt tracks, and makes a light work of going up and down the kerbs'.

The Roma Atlas, like the Urban Glide 2 is a popular off-road choice. It is available in a range of colors that will match your style. It also features an adjustable handlebar, a spacious basket and an ultraviolet hood that is 50+. You can also choose from a variety of infant car seats to convert the buggy into a pram, including the stylishly designed carrycot plus(tm) which is a cosy lie flat bed for newborns and babies from 12 months to 12 years old.

Safety

Four wheels make the buggy more stable and less likely to tip over and is easier to maneuver. It is also safer for your child as the weight of their body is evenly distributed across the frame.

A four-wheeled buggy also tends to have a lower center of gravity, making it more easy to roll up and over curbs. The fabric sling seats are placed inside the frame and not on top as modular seats. This results in a low seat position and an automobile that is easily pushed.

If you want to run with your child, a 4-wheeler is the best 3 wheel buggy option. It comes with a suspension system that allows the front wheel to move independently from the rear wheel. This will allow you to navigate rough terrain or bumpy roads. However there are some limitations to four wheel buggies are able to be used for running. Mountain Buggies are the exception since they feature an exclusive suspension system that has been tested independently across all types of terrain.
