Nice to run with. Strong hand brake. Folds fairly small for a jogger. | Nonetheless fairly huge, particularly in comparison with different strollers. Heavy, too. |
Joggers are huge, however the Thule does job of not being too huge—or at the very least not as huge because the competitors. The Thule City Glide 3, like its predecessor the City Glide 2, has a slim sufficient type to move via the walkway dividers meant to discourage my native skate boarders, and folds a bit flatter than different joggers, so it is simpler to stroll previous in my entryway. It is a easy journey and straightforward to fold with one hand, although at 26 kilos it is too heavy to hold along with your child in your different arm safely.
There are a number of adjustments on the brand new Thule City Glide 3 from the sooner mannequin. One is the hand brake, which is now much less round and as an alternative designed for ergonomic maintain to make it simpler to make use of. I personally most well-liked the sooner model, however the brand new one is a bit more easy for the place to put your hand and pull from and works simply as effectively to assist management your downhill velocity. There’s additionally a brand new, prolonged cover to raised shade your baby in your runs, and it is available in a bunch of enjoyable colours just like the Thule Shine. Lastly, there is a new built-in footrest for youths to put their toes as an alternative of dangling. I did not actually discover the footrest enhancing my son’s consolation whereas on this jogger, however that was when he was beneath 2, so it’d make a much bigger distinction for greater youngsters.
Thule additionally sells stroller equipment that allow you to use this jogger with an toddler, both with Thule’s bassinet attachment or one of many numerous automotive seat adapters. There are additionally attachable cup holders ($25) and water bottle cages ($30) you should purchase individually so as to add onto the City Glide 3.
★ An alternate: The BOB Gear Wayfinder ($529) is fairly just like the Thule, however folds a bit greater, is a number of kilos heavier, and stands taller than the City Glide 3, so it’s match for taller of us. I discovered the peak a bit uncomfortable, however I am solely 5’4″. It’s additionally a bit cheaper than the Thule.
