Wheels

The wheels of a pushchair are what allow it to move and give your child the experience they require. There are three common wheel types: rubber, foam, and EVA (harder plastic type). Each wheel type has its pros and cons depending on how you plan to use your stroller.

Rubber wheels are the most commonly used and provide great grip on all surfaces. They can be punctured by using a car tyre compressor to over inflate them. This is not a frequent issue and is usually caused by who has inflated the wheels too much. This type of wheel is typically used on buggies that run all-terrain.

PU or Polyurethane Wheels are stuffed with foam, making them lighter than rubber tires. They don't have the same shock absorbing ability and can sometimes feel more harsh on concrete surfaces that are rough. They are often seen on strollers than prams and are typically the lowest cost option.

EVA, or Ethylene vinyl acetate, is a plastic material that has some characteristics of rubber, and is lighter. It can be used in place of PU or rubber to keep it in good condition and also to reduce the overall weight of your pram.

It is essential to have reliable brakes in your pram. This will protect you, your child and other pedestrians. The majority of pushchairs have brake pedals that are located on the rear of the chassis and can be activated by pressing a lever or button on the handlebars or pushing down with your foot. The brakes should be simple to use and should be locked immediately when you press them. Some pushchairs have an in-wheel brake to provide stability and control.
