Suspension
The quality of the suspension on a 3-wheel double buggy is crucial to how it is easy for you and your baby to push. It is crucial to have a smooth ride as babies can feel every bump that comes along the road. This is particularly relevant if you drive on rough terrain, such as grass or unpaved roads. Some models have locking front tires that aid in maneuvering and navigating obstacles like curbs.
Some models have air-filled tyres that are ideal for all-terrain rides, but they are susceptible to punctures. Be sure to keep an extra set of tyres in the trunk. Other models use gel or foam tyres, which are designed to withstand bumps and can be less prone to punctures but you might find them to be a bit stiff and uncomfortable on your child's back if you decide to run.
