Manoeuvrability

A 3 wheel umbrella stroller-wheel pushchair is an excellent option for those looking to move effortlessly. The wheels are positioned close to each other, allowing the chassis to move and turn much more easily than a traditional 4 wheel pushchair, making them ideal for busy streets and shops. Some models have smaller front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to give them extra maneuverability. The Roma Atlas has two wheels in the front placed close together, and a clever lock that allows it to be as stable as a three-wheeler, while still having the same maneuverability.
