Manoeuvrability
A 3 wheeler pushchair wheel pushchair is a fantastic option for those who wish to be able to move effortlessly. The wheels are positioned close which allows the chassis to turn and twist more easily than a 4 wheel pushchair. This makes them suitable for busy shops and streets. Some have small front wheels that are locked and swivelled for additional maneuverability. The Roma Atlas has two wheels in the front positioned close together and a smart lock that allows it to be as stable as a three-wheeler while still having the same maneuverability.
A lot of our top-selling 3 wheelers come with a 4-in-1 travel systems that can convert from stroller to pram to a toddler seat or car seat carrier as your child grows.
