Manoeuvrability

A 3 wheel travel stroller wheel pushchair is a great option for those who wish to move effortlessly. The wheels are positioned close, allowing the chassis turn and turn more easily than a four wheel pushchair. This makes them suitable for busy shops and streets. Some models even have a pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide extra manoeuvrability when needed. The Roma Atlas, for example, has two wheels positioned close together in front and a clever lock that can swivel to give the flexibility of a 3-wheeler with added stability.
