The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 wheeler pushchairs from birth Wheeled Pushchair

If you frequently walk on rough terrain, or wish to run, a three-wheel pushchair is the ideal choice. They are the best option if you need a pushchair that can tackle any terrain from busy roads to forest tracks.

Look for designs with front wheels that can be locked or rotated. This will give you more flexibility. Larger wheels, both front and back offer a more comfortable ride on varying terrains.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is one of the main advantages of a 3 wheel pushchair. The wheels are close together and allow the chassis to turn and turn more easily than a 4 wheel pushchair. This makes them suitable for busy streets and shops. Some even have a small pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide extra maneuverability when needed. The Roma Atlas, for example has two wheels placed close together in front and an innovative lock that can swivel to give the ability to maneuver like a 3-wheeler, but with added stability.

A lot of our most well-loved 3 wheelers can be transformed from pram, stroller, car-seat and toddler seats as your child grows.

It features Hauck airwheels that are XL with a 360-degree locking swivel wheel and a suspension that allows it to be used on all terrains.

Choosing the right wheels for your pushchair is important dependent on the location you'll use it the most. Moulded wheels are fine for city life but won't perform well on more rough terrain.
