http://www.SchwinnJoggingStroller.org – Schwinn Jogging Stroller – Now that you and your baby are all settled in, you are ready to get active again and get in shape. A baby jogger is a fantastic way to bond with your baby while you both enjoy the outdoors. The Schwinn Jogging Stroller is very popular choice because of the baby comfort, light weight and long durability.

I was considering the Peg-Perego GT3 which is a 3 wheel stroller. But recently was told it is not a good jogging stroller. Anyone know if it’s really terrible to jog with?

I dont know about the peg perego but i highly recommend the PHIL & TEDS Vibe its a great stroller.

I am not sure what are good brands for joggers,as long as it is reliable and has a good safety rating,my son and I are finally ready for this! I am looking for something from $100 to $300 Canadian.I bought my Peg Perego on e-bay,I was also wondering if this would also be the best place to buy a jogging stoller as well?I am not e-baby savvy at all,I had a friend order that one for me.lol

I’ve got a BOB revolution, and I love it.

It’ll be under 300 new if you buy it through Stroller Strides (yup, there are Canadian ones, and they’re through a Canadian supplier so you don’t even have to worry about customs). If you’re fussy about colour, getting it through stroller strides you only can get red, and it’s got their logo on it.

Why I like it:

* It folds super-flat so I can tuck it in my entryway and it’s not in the way
* Its front wheel unlocks to swivel for easy steering, or locks for jogging. NOTE – this is the only swivel-wheel stroller that is a jogging stroller. The wheel locks forward, increasing the length of the wheelbase. All others that I know of lock underneath, and become tippy when jogging.
* My one pet peeve about it has been taken care of. Mine, the baby cannot lie back to sleep. In the new ones, the backrest goes all the way back.
* It’s light!
* Big canopy to shade Baby from the sun. Also has a ‘window’ in the top so you can check on him.
* It has shocks that have two settings, making a smoother ride for Baby
* It also has inflatable tires, which make for a smooth ride for Baby (many ‘joggers’ out there have hard plastic wheels!)
* I’m tall – my Peg Perego drove me nuts, I had to stoop to use it and kept kicking the wheels. The BOB Revolution has a higher handle, and I’ve not kicked the wheels once.
* Easy to use foot-brake for when you’re stopped. It doesn’t have a hand brake, but I found those useless gimicks anyway. It does have a wrist strap.
* Front wheel, when locked, is adjustable so it keeps going in a straight line. The locked-wheel ones often get out of alignment, and drive you nuts, every five paces you have to jerk the thing back in line.

Hope that helps!

We love to run. We have a 7-month old, but want the stroller to last till she’s 5 or so. I don’t want to spend like $400 … amazon.com has bargains, I see.

Ideally, a jog stroller should have these features:
- locking and un-locking front wheel;
- hand brake
- full recline seat
- good sun cover
- some suspension (?)
- easy to fold and store in the car
- not too heavy; my wife’s 115 pounds
- comfortable seat and good harness

Do all these features make sense? Can you recommend a great buy? Thanks so much!!

First you have to ask if you are only using this for jogging. If so, a non-swivel wheel is fine. If you want to use it for walking as well, a swivel with a locking feature is great.
Features for a fixed or non-fixed jogging stroller need to be:
Reclining seat
Ample room for kids legs (baby trend does not provide this)
Sun cover (however a kiddopotamus shade that attaches can solve this)
Suspension will also come from the tires.
A hand brake is not super important unless you plan to run marathons.

The problems with joggers:
None of them fold well and fit into a lower budget.
Most joggers will weigh about 25-30lbs
You wont find a super comfy seat. Jeep just came out with a new Liberty that is the softest I have found yet. It isnt online yet, but is in most stores. It is black, gray and bright green.

Actually the Jeep Liberty, priced at $140-150, is a good choice. It will give you most of the features you want, at a good price, and is made to last until your baby is older and maybe still be passed on.

I saw this type of jogging stroller once and have no clue the brand. I looked online and couldn’t find a picture either! It looked like the individual jogging stroller, but had the second seat under the main portion. Basically the smaller child sits under the larger one in a spot specifically meant for a child to sit! Any ideas?? Thank You!

It sounds like a Phil and Ted’s stroller. http://www.philandteds.com/nz/sportdouble_07_1.htm

I mean obviously you can,but is it easy and worth it to get rid of my travel system stroller?I got a jogging stroller,but was wondering if I could just use it full time and get rid of the other stroller,or would it be too much of a hassle?
Haha,my parents got us a jogging stroller for my baby’s birthday

I use my jogging stroller exclusively and I will NEVER EVER buy a regular stroller again! I just love my jogging stroller because I can take it anywhere and do anything I need to do.

Just be sure that your jogging stroller has a front wheel that swivels. If it does not swivel then you will not be able to make quick or sharp turns which is a hassle.

The jogging stroller I have is made by BabyTrend and you can attach a BabyTrend infant carrier to it to make it a travel system.

Bottom line: ditch the regular stroller!
