The Benefits and Drawbacks of a 3 Wheeled Pushchair

A three-wheeled pushchair is ideal if you walk regularly on rough terrain or jog. These are the best if you need an automobile that can handle any terrain, from busy roads to forest tracks.

Find models with front wheels that can be locked or turned. This will allow you more flexibility. The rear and front wheels that are larger provide a more comfortable riding on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is among the main advantages of a 3 wheel pushchair. The wheels are positioned close and allow the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a 4 wheel pushchair. This makes them perfect for busy shops and streets. Some models even have a pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide extra manoeuvrability when needed. The Roma Atlas, for example, has two wheels positioned close to each other at the front, and an innovative lock that swivels to give the ability to maneuver like three wheels, with added stability.
