Suspension
The quality of the suspension on a 3-wheel double buggy is crucial to how it is easy for you and your baby/s to push. It is crucial to enjoy a smooth ride as babies can feel every bump in the road. This is particularly true if you are driving on rough terrain, such as grass or roads that are not paved. Some models come with front tires that lock to aid in maneuvering and navigating obstacles like curbs.
Some models come with air-filled tyres, which provide a fantastic all-terrain experience, but they can be susceptible to punctures, so ensure you have spares in the trunk. Some models have gel or foam tyres that are specifically designed to handle bumps and are less prone to punctures, however, you may find them to be a bit stiff and uncomfortable for your child's back when you decide to jog.
