3 Wheel Buggies 3 wheel buggies offer excellent maneuverability with a stylish and streamlined frame. A lot of them come with an upholstered sling seat that has an incredibly comfortable lie flat bed and perfect weight distribution, perfect for babies from birth. The wheels are larger, and they also often come with suspension for agile smooth movement on a variety of terrains. The only downside is that they could be heavier and more bulkier to store & transport. Stability Three-wheel buggies provide a lot of stability. They don't fall over more easily when driving straight. You can also maneuver more swiftly. However, if you attempt to stop or turn suddenly they'll lose their stability and may fall 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 to tackle off-road terrain. Be sure to look for models with air-filled tyres (also called pneumatic tyres) because they can deal with off-road paths and other surfaces including sand, mud and rock. These models will also have an adjustable wheel that locks on the front to increase stability over rough terrain. The buggies are easy to maneuver and agile thanks to the 360o front swivel wheel. They will also pass the same stability standards worldwide and test as 4-wheel buggies. If you are looking for a fabric seat that are breathable, they tend to be less upright in comparison to modular seats. This means that your baby's centre of gravity will be closer to the ground – instantly ensuring an easier ride. Maxi-Cosi is most well-known for its car seat range However, it has recently expanded its product line with the Citylife compact travel system and pushchair. The model is designed for urban living and is suitable starting at birth with a newborn car seat or carrycot for infants. It comes with 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 buggies which can be folded compactly and can be tucked away in smaller spaces. Many can be folded with one hand and are easy to wipe down. Some of the smallest models have a simple handlebar-height adjustment, while others have adjustable suspensions and an ultraviolet canopy of 50+ that can be extended. Certain models may come with large baskets and a brake lever that's quick-release. The best 3 wheeler for rocky terrain A 3-wheeled buggy is usually better equipped to deal with off-road conditions as when compared to a four-wheeled model however both can be a bit stuck on tight corners. A model with bigger front and rear wheels will aid. This allows them to push over uneven ground and will often help with moving up and down steep kerbs. One option is the latest Roma Atlas, which has been praised for its surprisingly responsive handling despite its three-wheel design. MFM reviewer Kath tested it with her baby and 3-year-old son and reported that “it handles really well over bumpy pavements, cobbles, dirt roads and gravel tracks, as well as on a few hills.” Another option is the latest all-terrain 3 wheel buggy from Maxi-Cosi's car seat brand which is called Stella. It can be used from birth, if it is used in conjunction with a carrycot. It's slightly bigger than the lighter 4-wheelers however, it comes with air-filled tires with three recline positions and a single-hand fold. Its primary selling point is its modularity, though – it's compatible with all of the brands' infant car seats and strollers. 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. For instance, air-filled tyres provide a comfortable performance and maneuverability, whereas foam-filled tyres are more durable. The type you select will be based on your personal preferences and where you live. If you intend to travel on roads that are not paved or in rough terrain frequently you may want to consider a three-wheeler with more robust tyres. You should also consider the type of suspension that you require. The suspensions that are strong are great for tackling bumps and humps but they can be heavy, adding to the overall weight. Another aspect to be considered is the tyre's size. Understanding how to determine the sizing of a tyre is essential for maintaining safety performance, durability, and performance. The combination of letters and numbers on a tyre sidewall may appear confusing however, once you understand it, you will be able to understand the tyre's dimensions. For example, a tyre size of '185/70 R14' means that the tire is a 185/70 radius with 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 if the pushchair you are using has rubber or PU tires, you can test sliding the tires over a smooth surface and tie them. If the tires move easily and smoothly, they're made of PU. If not, then they are made of rubber. Suspension The suspension on a three wheel buggy is a vital aspect to consider as it absorbs the smacks and bumps of rough terrain making it more comfortable for your baby. Large wheels that are air-filled, and are able to be locked to ensure stability while jogging are crucial. This will allow your buggy to navigate off-road surfaces effortlessly. Depending on the type of buggy you're looking for, there are choices to fit every lifestyle and budgets. For example, the Mountain Buggy pioneered all terrain agility with its three-wheel buggies. Their sling seats made of fabrics are designed with perfect geometry and engineering to fit comfortably inside the frame rather than sitting on top like modular seats. This provides an lower center of gravity and is placed at the perfect height to spread weight evenly to take on kerbs. Another option that is worth considering is the Urban Glide 2 from Thule that boasts a sleek style with large highly manoeuvrable front wheel, excellent suspension, and an easy-to-use handbrake that twists. MFM reviewer Kath took this buggy to the test by taking it for an excursion through the rough terrain and she was impressed with how it adapted to the terrain well saying that it 'navigates easily over grass, bumpy cobbles, roads dirt tracks, and can be a breeze getting up and down kerbs'. The Roma Atlas, like the Urban Glide 2 is a popular off-road option. It comes in a variety of colors that will complement your style. It also comes with an adjustable handlebar, a spacious basket, and a 50+ UV hood. You can also pick from a selection of infant car seats to convert the buggy into a pram. This includes the chicly designed carrycot plus™ which is a comfortable lie-flat bed for newborns and babies from 12 months to 12 years old. Safety Four wheels make the pushchair much more stable, less likely to tip and easier to maneuver. It is also safer for your child as the weight of their body is evenly distributed across the frame. A four-wheeler is also likely to have a lower center of gravity, making it easier to pop over curbs and up the stairs. The seats of the fabric sling are placed inside the frame rather than on top of it like modular seats. This creates a low seating position and a buggy that can be easily maneuvered. However, if you want to go for an exercise with your child then a 4-wheeler might be more suitable as it has a suspension system that allows the front wheel to move independently of the rear one to allow you to tackle bumpy roads and rough terrain – just bear in mind not all buggies with 4 wheels are suitable for running (most are NOT, such as the Phil and Teds). Mountain Buggies are the exception, as they have an exclusive suspension system that has been tested by an independent expert across all terrains.
