The wheels are placed close together allowing the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a conventional four wheel pushchair, making them perfect for busy streets and shops. Some have small front wheels that can be swivelled and locked for extra maneuverability. The Roma Atlas, for example has two wheels placed closely together at the front and a clever swivel lock that gives the flexibility of a 3-wheeler, but with added stability.
