Manoeuvrability

A 3-wheel pushchair is a fantastic choice for those who want to be able to move effortlessly.

Some even have a small pair of front wheels that can be locked and swivelled to provide additional maneuverability when required. The Roma Atlas has two wheels in the front positioned close together and a clever lock that allows it to be as stable as a three-wheeler while still having the same maneuverability.
