ETFnerd Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 When my older daughter was in a stroller, i was too out of shape to run... my younger daughter is young enough and i've decided to purchase a jogging stroller... this one seems to be popular and i don't mind the price [although it seems high] unless there's something better i can buy cheaper... any thoughts on these...?http://www.rei.com/product/798579/bob-revolution-se-stroller i don't care what u think of me. unless u think i'm awesome. in which case u're right.

LizOh Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 My sister-in-law is a marathon runner. She was training for her first half when she was pregnant, and her parents gave her a Bob at her baby shower. The baby is one now, and that thing still seems like it was worth every penny. She took him training with her, and he just sleeps and giggles!

Sloth the Enduring Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Ergos are great for walking about, even hiking (I use one almost everyday), but you couldn't run with a baby in one.If you are actually going to run make sure the front wheel pivots and that it has a hand brake. We bought one that, although nice, doesn't and it is hard to run with it.Everything BOB makes is high quality and the price doesn't seem too steep for a good jogging stroller.Edit: too late.

msuroo Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Looks like I'm slow to the thread, but we have a Revolution SE. I can never keep it tracking straight with the front wheel fixed for any significant period of time, but I prefer the wheel pivoting anyway, so it doesn't bother me. Otherwise, I love it. Have fun!

Good Row G Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 BOBs seem to have a devoted following. We had a Mountain Buggy, which we loved. Even took that sucker on the metro!Only problem to consider is finding a spot for it to live. Too big to be folding up and down much if you can avoid it. Those things are tough and glide so easily. Have some good trips out and about! Once and future ranger. Link to comment
