A three-wheeled buggy is ideal for those who walk a lot on uneven terrain or jog. They are the best 3 wheel stroller with car Seat choice to use if you require a pushchair that can tackle any terrain, from busy streets to forest tracks.

For greater maneuverability, opt for a design with locking or swivelling front wheels. The rear and front wheels that are larger also give you the most comfortable riding on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is one of the major advantages of a three wheel pushchair. The wheels are positioned close to each other, which allows the chassis to move and turn much more easily than a traditional four wheel pushchair. This makes them ideal for busy streets and shopping. Some even have a pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide extra manoeuvrability when needed. The Roma Atlas, for example is equipped with two wheels that are positioned closely together at the front and an ingenious lock that swivels to give the flexibility of a 3-wheeler, but with added stability.
