15 Of The Most Popular 3 Wheeler Buggies Bloggers You Need To Follow
3 Wheeler Buggies 
 
A tri-wheeled stroller is ideal for off-roading and provides an easy ride for babies. They can also be easier to maneuver and push than a four-wheeler, particularly those with fabric slings or modular seat units that are placed comfortably in the frame, delivering the most efficient geometry and weight distribution. 
 
Stability 
 
Three-wheeled buggys are very stable, making them a great option for off-road walks (especially when they are equipped with a seat unit that is all-terrain or off-road). They typically have large front tires that are able to handle bumps, kerbs, and rough terrain. Some have a lockable wheels on the front to provide additional stability when driving on uneven terrain. 
 
It’s important to remember that 3-wheel buggies have lower centers of gravity than their 4-wheeled counterparts, which could mean they can topple over more readily. That said, the best 3-wheel pushchairs are designed with perfect geometry and engineering to make them very 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 the ability to rotate 360o on the front wheel, which makes them perfect for maneuvering over difficult terrain. 
 
For surfaces that are extremely challenging, look out for an air-filled model also known as pneumatic tyres, which are designed to work on non-paved tracks and should cope with mud, gravel, rock and so on. Many all-terrain buggies come with an swivelling wheel on the front which can be locked for added stability when tackling very rough terrain. 
 
A 3-wheel stroller is a good option for runners or for those who prefer to walk quickly and uphill, especially in the event that you’re planning to connect an infant car seat or carrycot. The Roma Atlas is a great example, with a world-facing seat that reclines flat and has improved 5-point harness and storage space for all your gear (plus an extension of 50+ sun hood). It’s light, compact and suitable from birth and can be used with car seats or a carrycot. It can also handle a bit of moderate jogging, but it’s not designed for serious joggers. 
 
Weight 
 
If you’re looking for a buggy that can handle difficult terrain then you want one with large wheels. They will be able to handle grass, cobbles, and dirt tracks while providing a smooth ride for all passengers. They’re also ideal for jogging as they have built in suspension and are simple to get up and down kerbs. The trade-off is that they’re 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 due to its 16 rear wheels and an adjustable front wheel that locks. pushchairsandprams has air tyres which require pumping occasionally and can hold children until the age of 3. MFM reviewer Kath said that her toddler enjoyed the shape of the seat, and she found it easy to steer with her three-year-old child on the board. 
 
The Baby Jogger Versa GT is another excellent option. It comes with an adjustable handlebar, a hood made of high-end materials that offers 50+ UV protection and a high quality hood. It’s also easy to get up and down kerbs and can fit into small car boot. It can also be used as a pram, with a carrycot or infant car seat for infants and toddlers. 
 
Fabric sling seats are tucked within the frame of the buggie, as opposed to over it like modular seats. This design provides an lower centre of gravity at the perfect height, making it easier to push and lighter to pop the kerb (you cannot overestimate the amount of times you’ll have to do that as new parents!) 
 
Seating 
 
The capacity for 3 wheelers is impressive, and there are a number of different options to pick from. For a newborn you have the option to use the carrycot (which MFM reviewer Alice says is a comfortable and cozy lie-flat bed that can be used both on and off the buggy), while older babies and toddlers can use the parent or world-facing seat that is large and cushioned and has adjustable ventilation. It’s worth noting that the seats do not recline completely, but they can be lowered to the lowest position which will give your child plenty of headroom and space to move around. 
 
A fabric sling is also available. It has the advantage that it is placed within the frame, instead of on top as a modular seat. This creates a lower center of gravity and a perfect weight distribution. This makes it easier to push, especially over bumpy terrain and curbs. MFM reviewer Kath liked the way this type of seat handled the obstacles. 
 
This type of buggy comes with an extensive basket and other useful features such as an extendable hood with 50+ UV protection, an easy to use brake pedal, and some unique visibility lights that can be placed in front of the occupants to increase safety on rough terrain. 
 
Alternatively, if you are looking for a single buggy that can expand with your family, there’s the brand-new sport(tm) that is a world’s first that can take a single infant from the moment of birth and change to take two or even 3 once your children have developed and all within the footprint of a single buggy. 
 
Stores 
 
The 3-wheeled frame makes a buggy more stable and stable to push with one hand and is also ideal for handling difficult terrain. However, it means that the shopping basket can’t hold as much as a four-wheeled buggy. 
 
A good quality ATP will have excellent suspension, pneumatic tyres, and a padded handle for your comfort. It will be able to accept a carrycot or car seat, which means you can use it right from birth. 
 
 
MFM’s reviewers discovered that the 3-wheeler frames didn’t fit through their home’s doors or car boot. If you’re worried about space, make sure to verify the dimensions of the buggy once it is folded prior to purchasing. 
 
It’s worth considering 3-wheelers that can accommodate 2 (or even 3!) This is the best choice for your future and will help you save money. The iCandy strawberry sport is among the top of them; it can be used as a single seat from day dot and then converts to a twin buggies when your baby starts walking. 
 
Tyres 
 
Air filled tyres are made to provide your child with a more comfortable ride by cushioning out bumps and uneven surfaces. They are commonly found on pushchairs like the Phil & Ted’s Sport which MFM reviewer Kath found to be “an exceptional ride for my toddler”. She also mentioned that the grippy tyres on the Phil & Ted’s Sport made it easy for her to maneuver around the kerbs as well as other obstacles. 
 
These tyres can sometimes prove tricky to keep inflated and will need to be replenished regularly. These tyres are more prone to punctures, so you should always carry a repair kit as well as an spare inner tube with you when you’re out and about. 
 
PU tyres are found on a lot more pushchairs than air-filled tyres, but they’re just as durable. PU tires are easily distinguished by their matte finish and soft feel. They also slide easily on smooth and tightly woven surfaces. 
 
It’s usually possible to tell the difference between PU and air-filled tire by running your fingers over them, if it feels hard then it’s rubber and if it slides then it’s a PU. You can also test if your buggy is fitted with PU tyres by sliding them across a flat, clean surface. They should roll smoothly and fit snugly into wheel hubs. 
 
Foam tyres can handle the rough terrain that comes with high-performance buggies. This can make your buggy less stable as the foam loses its springy quality. Also, these types of tyres can typically be noisy because they create a lot of noise when you turn and make your way around the town.
