Seats

Suspension

The quality of the suspension in a 3 wheel double buggy is crucial to how easy it will be for you and your baby/s to push. It is crucial to enjoy a smooth ride as babies can feel every bump that comes along the road. This is especially relevant if you drive on rough terrain like grass or unpaved roads. Some models come with locking front tires that aid in maneuvering and navigating obstacles like curbs.

Some models have tyres with air filled which are ideal for all-terrain rides, but they are prone to punctures. Make sure you have an extra set of tyres in the trunk. Some models have gel or foam tyres, which are designed to withstand bumps and can be less susceptible to punctures, but you might find them a little stiff and uncomfortable on your child's back when you decide to jog.
