3 Wheeler Buggies

A three-wheeled buggy is ideal for off-roading and provides an easy ride for babies. They are also simpler to push and manoeuvre than a four-wheeler and are especially suitable for those with slings made of fabric or modular seat units that are placed in a tight position within the frame and deliver the most efficient geometry and distribution of weight.

Stability

Three-wheeled buggys are extremely stable, which makes them an ideal option for off-roading (especially when they are equipped with a seat unit that is all-terrain or off-road). These buggys often have oversized front tires that can withstand bumps, kerbs and rough terrain. Some models have a lockable wheel in the front to give you extra stability when driving on uneven terrain.

It's important to keep in mind that 3-wheel buggies can have a lower center of gravity than 4-wheeled models, which can mean that they fall over more easily. The best 3 wheel stroller travel system 3-wheeled pushchairs have been built with the perfect geometry to ensure they remain solid in all conditions. They should be able turn on a dime and be easy to steer using one hand. They also come with an incline of 360o for the front wheel which is ideal for navigating difficult terrain.

Find models with pneumatic tyres. These are designed to handle nonpaved tracks, and should be able to handle rocks, mud, gravel and more. A lot of all-terrain buggies have an swivelling wheel on the front which can be locked for greater stability when dealing with rough terrain.

A tri-wheeled pram is a great choice for runners and those who enjoy walking fast uphill. This is particularly true if you intend to attach a car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is an excellent model. It has a flat-reclining seat with a 5-point harness, and plenty of storage space for all your equipment (plus an extendable 50+ sun hood). It's lightweight, compact and suitable for babies and can be used with the use of a car seat or carrycot. It can also handle some light jogging but isn't intended for serious runners.

Weight

If you're seeking a buggy that can handle difficult terrain then you want one with large wheels. These are designed to handle dirt, cobbles, and grass tracks with ease, while still providing an enjoyable ride. They're also ideal for jogging as they're equipped with suspension and are easy to move up and down kerbs. However, the trade off is that they can be quite heavy to push.

The Mountain Buggy Urban Glide 2 is the most suitable 3 wheel buggy to use on rough terrain (pictured above). This 3-wheeler has 16 rear wheels, and an swivel wheel lockable to the front which makes it very maneuverable. It has air tyres, that require occasional pumping and it can be used to carry a child up to the age of 3. MFM reviewer Kath says that her toddler loved the seat shape and she found it easy to drive with her 3-year-old riding along.

The Baby Jogger Versa GT is an alternative that is also a great choice. It comes with an adjustable handlebar, a hood made of high-end materials that provides 50+ UV protection and an extremely high-quality hood. It's also easy to move up and down kerbs, and it can fit in small car boots. It can also be used as a pram that comes with a carrycot or infant car seat for infants and toddlers.

Fabric sling seats are tucked inside the buggie's frame instead of on top of it like modular seats. This design has a lower centre-of-gravity, which is the perfect height. It is much easier to push and lighter to kerb-pop (you cannot underestimate how many times you will do this as a new parent!).

Seating

The seating capacity of 3 wheeler buggies wheelers is impressive and there are many different options to pick from. The carrycot that comes with it is ideal for a baby (which MFM reviewer Alice describes as a comfortable and cosy lie-flat bed that can be used on and off the buggy). Older infants and toddlers will appreciate the large and comfortable seat unit with adjustable ventilation. The seats are not able to recline fully, but they can be lowered to the lowest position. This should give your child plenty of room and headroom.

A sling seat made of cloth is also available, which is set snugly inside the frame instead of sitting on top as a modular seat and this gives a lower centre of gravity and 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 dealt with these challenges.

In addition to a big shopping basket, this kind of buggy generally has very useful features like an extendable 50+ UV hood, an easy to use brake pedal, and some bright, game-changing lights that appear from the handlebar and can be placed in front of the passengers to improve their safety when they are tackling difficult terrain.

If you're looking for a buggy that will grow with your family The sport(tm) is a first in the world, can accommodate a newborn and then be modified to fit three wheeler pushchairs or four children as they grow. All within a single footprint.

Storage

The 3-wheeled frame is more sturdy and can be moved with just one hand. It's also better for terrains that are difficult to navigate. The shopping basket is smaller than a 4-wheeler.

A high-quality ATP will feature pneumatic tyres, a cushioned grip for added comfort, and a superb suspension. It should also be equipped to carry car seats and a carrycot so you can use it from the moment you are born.

MFM's reviewers have discovered that the 3-wheeler frame won't pass through all doors in their homes, or small car boots - make sure you check the dimensions of the buggy when it's folded before buying in case you're concerned about space.

It's worth looking for a 3-wheeler that can take 2 (or even 3!) seats once your family grows. These are the most efficient of both and will help you save money in the future. The iCandy strawberry sport is among the top of them; it can be used as a single unit from day dot, and then transforms into twin buggies once your baby begins walking.

Tyres

These tyres absorb bumps and uneven surfaces to make your child's journey more comfortable. These are used on pushchairs such as the Phil & Ted’s Sport, which MFM reviewer Kath said was "an outstanding ride for her toddler". She also mentioned that the grippy tires of the Phil and Ted's Sport made it easy for her to maneuver around kerbs and other obstacles.

These tyres can sometimes prove difficult to maintain their inflation and must be filled regularly. These tyres are more prone to punctures, and you should always carry a repair kit and spare inner tube when you're out and out and about.

PU tyres can be used on pushchairs because they are less expensive than air-filled tyres, but they are just as durable. PU tyres are easily identified by their matte finish and soft feel. They also slide on flat and tidy surfaces.

If you run your hand over the tyres, you can tell if they're PU or rubber. If it feels as if it is sliding then it is a PU. You can also confirm that your buggy is fitted with PU tyres simply by sliding the tyres onto an even, clean surface - they'll be able to roll easily and should fit snugly in their wheel hubs.

Foam tyres are often used in high-performance buggies as well as Joggers due to their ability to deal with the rough terrain common to this type of pushchair. The downside of this is that the foam may shrink and make your buggy feel less stable because it loses its springy quality. These tyres also make a lot of noise because they generate a lot noise when you turn or drive around town.
