3 Wheel Buggies3 wheel buggies offer excellent maneuverability, and are a stylish, sleek frame. A lot of them come with a fabric sling seat with a comfortable lay flat bed and a perfect weight distribution, perfect from the moment of birth.The wheels are larger and often have suspension to ensure smooth, swift movement on different terrains. The only drawback to these wheels is that they may be heavier and bulkier to transport and store.StabilityThree wheel buggies are extremely stable - they don't tip over as easily as pushchairs with four wheels when traveling in a straight line and you'll find that you can maneuver them more quickly and easily. If you stop or turn abruptly, they could lose stability and even tip over. For this reason, some manufacturers add an extra wheel to their three wheel buggy designs to increase the stability of the chassis.You can also tackle off-road terrain with the extra wheel. Find models with air-filled tires (also called pneumatic tyres) that can be used to handle off-road paths, sand and mud, and other surfaces like rock and sand. These models will also feature an adjustable wheel that locks on the front, which will increase stability on rough terrain.With the right geometry, engineering and weight distribution, these buggies can turn at a moment's notice - easy to steer with one hand; they have 360o front swivel wheels allowing mobility and agility to be effortless and light in handling. They also meet the same stability standards worldwide and test as 4-wheel buggies.If you're looking for a fabric sling seat, they tend to be set lower in the frame than modular seats so that your baby's center of gravity is closer to the floor which means a smoother ride and a less noticeable kerb pop (you don't have to exert as much pressure or exertion to get the buggy over and up the Kerb).Maxi-Cosi is a household name for its car seat range However, it has recently expanded its product line with the Citylife compact travel system and pushchair. This 3-in-1 is ideal for urban living and comes with a newborn car seat or carrycot. It comes with 4 wheels and uses an exclusive pewter black aluminium frame that the manufacturer claims is 'slim and compact'. It's actually only 2cm wider than the Babyzen Yoyo.FoldingThere's a variety of 3 wheel buggies that fold compactly to fit in smaller spaces. Many of these buggies can be folded with one hand, and are easy to clean. The smallest models will feature an easy adjustable height of the handlebars, while others may have an adjustable suspension as well as an extended 50+ UV canopy. Some models could have large baskets and a brake lever that is quick-release.The best 3 wheeler for rough terrainA 3-wheeler is likely to be more adept at dealing with off-road conditions than a 4-wheel model, but both can get stuck in tight places. A model with larger front and rear wheels can assist. This makes it easier to push them across rough terrain and can help you get up and down steep curbs.The new Roma Atlas has been praised by many for its surprising agility despite its three-wheeled design. MFM reviewer Kath tested it with her infant and reported that "it was very well-handled on bumpy surfaces, cobbles, gravel tracks, dirt roads and some hills."Another option is the latest all-terrain 3 wheel buggy made by Maxi-Cosi's car seat brand which is called Stella. It is suitable for babies from birth if used with a carrycot. It is slightly larger than the lighter 4-wheelers but it features air-filled tires and three recline positions and an easy fold with one hand.Its most appealing feature is its modularity - it's compatible with all of the brands' baby strollers and car seats. You can design your own travel system, regardless of whether you want to go on a short walk or a longer one, using the chassis.TyresThe tyres for 3 wheel buggies are offered in many styles and materials. Each has its own pros and cons. For instance, tyres that are filled with air offer an effortless ride and superior maneuverability while foam-filled tires are more durable. The type of tyre you choose will depend on your lifestyle and where you live.For instance, if you intend to frequently travel on unpaved paths or rough terrain, you may think about a 3-wheeler that has sturdier tyres. Consider the type of suspension you require. The suspensions that are strong are great to tackle humps and bumps however they can be quite heavy and add to the overall weight.The size of the tyre is important. Knowing how to determine the sizing of a tyre is essential to ensure safety as well as performance and durability. The combination of letters and numbers on the sidewall of a tyre can seem confusing at first, but decoding it will allow you to comprehend the dimensions of the tyre. For instance, a tyre size of '185/70 R14 indicates that the tire is a 185/70 radial with a 14 inch rim diameter.PU tires are lighter and more puncture-resistant than rubber tires. If you're unsure if a pushchair has rubber or PU tires, you can test sliding the tires on an even and secure surface. If they slide easily, then the tires are made from PU. If not, they are made of rubber.SuspensionThe suspension of a 3 wheel buggy is an essential element to look for as it absorbs the jolts and bumps of rough terrain making it more comfortable for your child. Having large wheels, that are air-filled, and are lockable for stability during jogging is essential to ensure that your buggy will be capable of maneuvering off road surfaces with ease.Depending on the style of buggie you're looking for There are a variety of options to suit all lifestyles and budgets. For instance the Mountain Buggy pioneered all terrain agility with its three-wheel buggies. With the perfect geometry and engineering their sling seat made of fabric rests comfortably within the frame, as opposed to on top like modular seats, resulting in a lower centre of gravity and sitting at the ideal height for optimal weight distribution that allows it to easily handle the kerb pops.The Urban Glide 2 by Thule is another excellent option. It features sleek design, a big wheel that's easy to maneuver and combines it with exemplary suspension. It also comes with a twist handbrake for ease of use. MFM reviewer Kath really put this buggy to the test by taking it for an excursion through the rough terrain and found that it adapted to the terrain well. She said that it 'flies easily over grass, bumpy cobbles, pavements dirt tracks, and makes a light work of getting up and down kerbs'.The Roma Atlas is another popular off-road model and, similar to the Urban Glide 2, comes with a variety of colours to suit your style. It also comes with a movable handlebar and a spacious basket. You can also choose from a selection of infant car seats that will transform the buggy into pram. This includes the stylishly designed Carrycot Plus(tm) which is a comfortable lie-flat baby bed suitable for infants and newborns up to 12 month old.three wheel pushchair make the buggy more stable, less likely for it to tip over and easier to maneuver. It also makes it more secure for your baby since their weight is distributed more evenly across the frame of the pushchair.A four-wheeled buggy has lower center of gravity, which makes it easier to pop over curbs and climb up. The fabric sling seat sits within the frame, not over it as modular seats do, which makes for a low-slung seating position and a lighter buggy that is easily maneuvered.However, if you'd like to go out for a run with your baby then a 4-wheeler may be more suitable as it will have suspension that allows the front wheel to move independently of the back wheel so you can tackle rough terrains and bumpy roads be aware that not all 4 wheel buggies are suitable for running (most aren't like the Phil and Teds). The exception is Mountain Buggies which have a specially-designed suspension system that has been independently tested across all terrains.
