Suspension

The quality of the suspension on a 3 wheel double buggy is essential to how it is easy for you and your child to push. A smooth ride is vital since babies can feel every bump in the road, particularly if it's on rough terrain like grass or paths that aren't paved. Certain models also have locking front wheels to help in maneuvering and navigating obstacles like curbs.

Some models use air-filled tyres which will provide a fantastic all-terrain adventure, but they could be prone to punctures, so make sure you have spares in the trunk. Certain models come with gel-filled or foam-filled tyres which are designed to absorb bumps. They can be less likely to puncture, but they may be uncomfortable for your child should you decide to jog.
