| Nice to run with. Strong hand brake. Folds fairly small for a jogger. | Nonetheless fairly massive, particularly in comparison with different strollers. Heavy, too. |
Joggers are massive, however the Thule does an excellent job of not being too massive—or no less than not as massive because the competitors. The Thule City Glide 3, like its predecessor the City Glide 2, has a slim sufficient kind to move via the walkway dividers meant to discourage my native skate boarders, and folds a little bit flatter than different joggers, so it is simpler to stroll previous in my entryway. It is a clean trip and straightforward to fold with one hand, although at 26 kilos it is too heavy to hold together 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 popular 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 higher shade your baby in your runs, and it is available in a bunch of enjoyable colours much 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 underneath 2, so it’d make a much bigger distinction for larger 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 buy individually so as to add onto the City Glide 3.
★ An alternate: The BOB Gear Wayfinder ($529) is fairly much like the Thule, however folds a little bit larger, is a number of kilos heavier, and stands taller than the City Glide 3, so it’s an excellent match for taller of us. I discovered the peak a little bit uncomfortable, however I am solely 5’4″. It’s additionally a little bit cheaper than the Thule.
