Find models with front wheels that can be locked or swivelled. This gives you more flexibility. The rear and front wheels that are larger offer an easier ride on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

A 3 wheel pushchair is an excellent option for those who wish to be able to maneuver effortlessly. The wheels are positioned close together allowing the chassis to rotate and turn more easily than a traditional four wheel pushchair, making them perfect for busy streets and shopping. Some even have a small pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide additional maneuverability when required. The Roma Atlas, for example is equipped with two wheels that are positioned closely together at the front and an innovative swivel lock that gives it all the maneuverability of a 3 wheel baby stroller-wheeler, but with added stability.

Many of our most popular twin 3 wheel stroller wheelers are able to be converted from pram, stroller or toddler seat and car-seat carrier as your child develops.
