3 Wheeler Buggies

A three-wheeler is ideal for rough terrain and provides an easy ride for your baby. They are also more convenient to push and maneuver than a four-wheel buggy especially those with fabric sling seats or seat units that are positioned perfectly within the frame, providing the most efficient geometry and weight distribution.

Stability

Three-wheeled buggys are very stable, making them a great option for off-roading (especially when equipped with a seat unit that is all-terrain or off-road). They typically have large front tires that can withstand bumps, kerbs and rough terrain. Some even have a lockable front wheel for extra stability on uneven terrain.

It is important to remember that 3-wheel buggies may have a lower centre of gravity than 4-wheeled models and this can mean that they topple over more easily. However, the most reliable 3-wheel buggies have the an ideal geometry and design to ensure that they remain stable in all weather conditions. They should be able turn at a whim and be easy to steer with one hand. They also come with a 360o rotating front wheel, which makes them perfect to navigate difficult terrain.

For really tricky surfaces, look out for an air-filled model, also known as pneumatic tyres, which are designed to handle non-paved tracks and are able to deal with mud, gravel, rock etc. Many all-terrain buggies have a swivelling front wheel that can be locked to add stability when working on extremely rough terrain too.

A tri-wheeled pram is a great option for those who run and love to speed up the hill. This is particularly true if you are planning to connect a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is a great example, with a wide-facing seat that can recline flat and has improved 5-point harness and storage space for all your kit (plus an extension of 50+ sun hood). It's lightweight, compact and suitable for infants and can be used with car seats or a carrycot. It can also be used for light jogging but is not intended for serious runners.

Weight

If you are looking for a buggy to tackle difficult terrain, then you should select one with large tires. These are designed to handle grass, cobbles and dirt tracks with ease and still provide smooth riding. These are also great for jogging because they have built-in suspension and are easy to climb up and down kerbs. However, the downside is that they can be quite heavy to push.

The most suitable 3 wheel buggy for rough terrain is the Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 (pictured above). The 3-wheel buggy comes with 16 rear wheels with an swivel wheel lockable to the front which makes it very maneuverable. It has tyres with air which require pumping regularly. It can be used by children up until the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath said that her toddler enjoyed the shape of the seat and she found it easy to steer even with her 3-year-old son on the seat.

Another option that is great is the Baby Jogger Versa GT, which has an adjustable handlebar and a hood made of high-quality with 50+ UV protection. It is also easy to move kerbs up and down and fits in a the car's boot space in a small size. It can also be used as a pram with an infant car seat for newborns and toddlers.

Sling seats made of fabric fit snugly within the buggie's frame instead of sitting on top of it as modular seats. This design provides an lower centre of gravity at the perfect height, instantly making it easier to push and lighter to kerb pop (you should never underestimate how often you'll do this as a new parent!)

Seating

There are a variety of options for seating in three wheelers. The included carrycot plus is ideal for a newborn (which MFM reviewer Alice describes as a comfortable and cosy lying-flat bed that can be used in and out of the buggy). Older babies and toddlers will appreciate the spacious and comfortable seat unit that has adjustable ventilation. The seats do not recline fully, but they can be lowered down to the lowest point. This should give your child plenty of space and headroom.

A sling made of fabric is also available. It is advantageous in that it is positioned within the frame, instead of on top as a seat that is modular. This creates a lower center of gravity, with a perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, especially over bumpy terrain and curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this style of seat handled the obstacles.

In addition to a large shopping basket, this type of buggy usually has pretty useful features such as an extended 50+ UV hood, a simple brake pedal and some bright, game-changing lights that pop up from the handlebars and can be placed directly in front of the occupants to improve their safety when they are tackling difficult terrain.

If you're searching for a stroller that can grow with your family it's the sport(tm) is a world first designed to accommodate infants and be modified to fit two or three children as they grow, all within one footprint.

Stores

The 3 wheeler buggy-wheeled frame is more sturdy and can be moved with just one hand. It's also more suitable for terrains that are difficult to navigate. The shopping basket is smaller than a four-wheeler.

A good quality ATP will have a top suspension, pneumatic tyres and an ergonomic handle that is cushioned to ensure your convenience. It should be able to accommodate a carrycot or a car seat, which means you can use it right from the time of birth.

MFM's reviewers discovered that the 3-wheeler frames couldn't fit through their home's doors or car boot. If you're worried about space, be sure to check out the dimensions of the buggy when it is folded before buying.

Choose a 3 wheel stroller for running-wheeler with 2 (or 3!) seats. seats once your family grows. They are the best of both worlds and future proof your money. The iCandy Strawberry Sport is among the most well-known. It can be used as early as day dot as a single buggy, and later converted into twin 3 wheel stroller buggies once your baby is walking.

Tyres

Air filled tyres are designed to give your child an easier ride by cushioning out bumps and uneven surfaces. They are typically used on pushchairs such as the Phil & Ted’s Sport, which MFM reviewer Kath said offered "an exceptional ride for her toddler". She also said that the grippy tyres of the Phil & Ted's Sport made it easier for her to navigate the kerbs as well as other obstacles.

They can be tricky to keep inflated and must be filled regularly. These tyres are more susceptible to punctures, and it is recommended to always carry a repair kit as well as an spare inner tube when you're out and about.

PU tyres can be used on pushchairs since they are less expensive than air-filled tyres but are equally durable. PU tyres are easily identified by their matte finish and supple feel. They also slide over flat and tidied surfaces.

If you rub your hands over the tyres you can tell if they're rubber or PU. If it feels like it's moving, then it's a rubber or PU. You can also check if your buggy is fitted with PU tyres by sliding them across flat, clean surfaces. They should roll easily and fit comfortably into wheel hubs.

Foam tyres can withstand the rough terrain that comes with high-performance buggies. The downside of this is that the foam may shrink and make your buggy appear less stable because it loses its springy nature. You'll also find that these tyres may often be noisy as they make a lot of noise when you turn and navigate your way through the town.
