3 Wheeler Buggies

A tri-wheeled stroller is ideal for off-road terrain and offers a smooth ride for baby. They are also easier to push and manoeuvre than a four wheel buggy especially those equipped with fabric slings or modular seat units, which are positioned tightly in the frame to provide the best 3 wheel pushchair shape and weight distribution.

Stability

A three-wheeled buggy offers excellent stability, which is why it's a good option for off-road walks (especially with an all terrain or off-road-style seat). They typically have large front tires that can withstand bumps, kerbs, and rough terrain. Some models even come with a lockable front wheel to give extra stability when driving on uneven terrain.

It's important to keep in mind that 3-wheel buggies may have a lower center of gravity than models with four wheels which means that they fall over more easily. The most reliable 3-wheeled pushchairs are made with the best 3 wheel pushchair geometry to ensure that they remain steady in any weather. They should be able to turn at a whim and be easy to steer using one hand. They also have the ability to rotate 360o on the front wheel that makes them ideal to navigate difficult terrain.

For surfaces that are extremely challenging you should look for models with air-filled tyres also known as pneumatic tyres, which are designed to work on non-paved tracks and should cope with rocks, mud, and more. Many all-terrain buggies feature a swivelling front wheel that can be locked to provide stability when tackling extremely rough terrain.

A 3-wheel pram is also an excellent option for runners or for those who prefer to walk quickly and uphill, particularly in the event that you're planning to connect a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is an excellent model. It features a flat-reclining seat with five-point harnesses, and plenty of storage space for all your equipment (plus an extendable 50+ sun hood). It's light and compact, and is suitable to use from birth. It can be used with either a car seat or carrycot. It can also handle some light jogging but isn't intended for serious runners.

Weight

If you're looking for a buggy that can tackle terrain that is difficult, you should select one with large tires. They are designed to tackle cobbles, grass and dirt tracks with ease while providing an enjoyable ride. They're also good for jogging as they come with suspension and are easy to climb and descend kerbs. However, they are 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 is extremely maneuverable because it has 16 rear wheels as well as an adjustable front wheel that locks. It comes with tyres filled with air that need to be pumped up every now and then. It can accommodate children up until the age of three. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler was awed by the shape of the seat, and she found steering it easy even with her three-year-old on board.

Another great option is the Baby Jogger Versa GT, with a movable handlebar and a high-quality hood with 50+ UV protection. It is also easy to move kerbs upwards and downwards, and can fit into the boot of a car that is small. It can be used as a stroller along with a carrycot for newborns or toddlers.

Fabric sling seats sit snugly inside the frame of the buggie rather than sitting on top of it as modular seats. This design has a lower centre-of-gravity, which is the ideal height. It is much easier to push, and is lighter to kerb-pop (you don't know how many times you'll do that as a new parent!).

Seating

There are a myriad of alternatives for seating options in 3 wheelers. For a newborn it is possible to use the included carrycot plus (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a comfortable and cozy lie flat bed that can be used both on and off the buggy) In addition, older babies and toddlers can be seated in the parent or world-facing seat that is spacious and padded and does have adjustable ventilation. The seats don't fully recline, but they can be lowered to the lowest setting. This should still allow your child to have plenty of headroom and space.

A sling seat made of cloth is also available. It is set snugly inside the frame, rather than on top like an open-back seat. This provides a lower center of gravity as well as a perfect weight distribution. This makes it much easier and lighter to push especially over bumpy terrain or curbs. MFM reviewer Kath loved the way that this style of seat handled these challenges.

Alongside a huge shopping basket, this type of buggy generally has pretty useful features such as an extendable 50+ UV hood, an easy to use brake pedal and some games-changing visibility lights that pop up from the handlebars and can be placed in front of the passengers to improve their safety when tackling tricky terrain.

If you're seeking a single stroller that will adapt to your family's needs There's the new sport(tm) that's the first in the world to take a single newborn from the moment of birth and adjust to take 2 or even 3 after your little ones have developed and all within the footprint of one buggy.

Stores

The 3-wheeled model is more sturdy and can be moved with one hand. It's also ideal for difficult terrain. The shopping basket is smaller than a four-wheeler.

A high-quality ATP will have excellent suspension, pneumatic tyres and an ergonomic handle that is cushioned to ensure your convenience. It will also be equipped with a carrycot and car seat so you can use it from birth.

MFM's reviewers have found that the 3 wheel umbrella stroller (Full Guide)-wheeler frame doesn't fit through all the doors of their homes or small car boot - be sure you check the dimensions of the buggy when it's folded prior to purchasing for those who are concerned about space.

Find a 3-wheeler that has 2 (or 3 wheel travel system!) seats. This is the best option for your future and can help you save money. The iCandy strawberry sport is one of the most popular and can be used as a single from day dot and then converts to twin buggies when your baby begins walking.

Tyres

Air filled tyres are designed to provide your child with more comfort while riding by cushioning out bumps and uneven surfaces. These are found on pushchairs like the Phil & Ted’s Sport which MFM reviewer Kath said offered "an exceptional ride for her toddler". She also noted that the grippy tyres make it easier to handle cobbles and kerbs.

These tyres can be difficult to maintain and require having their air pressure regularly topped up. They are also more vulnerable to punctures than foam tyres so it is essential that you have a repair kit, spare inner tube and pump handy when you're out and about in your buggy.

PU tyres are typically used on pushchairs because they are less expensive than air-filled tyres but are equally durable. PU tyres are easily identified by their matte finish and soft feel. They also slide on smooth and tidy surfaces.

If you run your hand over the tyres, then you can determine if they're rubber or PU. If it feels as if it's moving, then it's a PU. You can also verify that your buggy has PU tyres simply by sliding the tyres onto a clean, flat surface - they'll be able to roll easily and fit snugly into their wheel hubs.

Foam tyres are commonly used in high-performance buggies as well as joggers because they can cope with the rough terrain common to this type of pushchair. This could make your buggy less stable as the foam will lose its springy nature. These tyres are also noisy due to the fact that they create a lot noise when you turn and navigate around the town.
