For greater maneuverability, opt for a model that has locking or swivelling front wheels. The rear and front wheels that are larger also offer the most comfortable riding on different surfaces.

Manoeuvrability

Manoeuvrability is among the main advantages of a 3 wheel pushchair. The wheels are placed close together allowing the chassis to rotate and turn much more easily than a traditional four wheel pushchair, making them perfect for busy streets and shopping. Some even have a small pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide additional maneuverability when required.
