Schwinn Double Jogging Stroller – Exercise While Keeping Your Babies Safe
From the world-renowned bike manufacturer comes the Schwinn double jogging stroller, which is an excellent way to get your exercise through jogging (or even just brisk walking) while bringing your child along for the ride, literally. Of course, you should contact your pediatrician and coach if you are training over long distances.
Product Description
The Schwinn jogging strollers are known for their high-end features designed to combine the benefits of safety, comfort and ease of use for both the children and their parents. Aside from jogging purposes, these double strollers are also good for leisurely walking and general use.
Maximum weight capacity is set at 100 pounds for the two children although the stroller weighs in at just 27 pounds. The frame is made from lightweight, rust-free and durable aluminum supported on rear suspension, which makes for smooth rides even on rough terrain.
Depending on the model, the Schwinn double jogging stroller comes in fixed and flexible wheel types. Your choice will depend on whether you use the stroller more for general use or for everyday jogging although there are models that allow for locking the wheel mechanism for added versatility.
The seats are usually padded with five-point harnesses for maximum comfort and safety. Your children are protected from the sun and rain by an adjustable canopy. There is also an under basket to store diaper bags, toys and some items of your own while side pockets provide convenient compartments for small odds and ends.
Pros
There are many benefits to the Schwinn strollers, most of which can be deduced from the product description previously discussed. Just to recap these benefits:
* The frame may be lightweight, allowing for easy storage and handling but it is sufficiently durable to withstand rough terrain and faster joggings speed.
* The plush, padded and spacious seats offer comfort while the five-point harness ensures safety for your kids. You will want both features because your kids’ welfare comes first and foremost.
* The adjustable sun canopy shields your children from light rain and full sunshine, thus, adding to their safety and comfort.
* The handlebars can be adjusted to suit your height and comfort level.
With these benefits, you will think that the Schwinn stroller is the best there is in the market. But wait! You have to know the cons before making your final decision.
Cons
Unfortunately, you will find that the Schwinn stroller has no hand break, which makes it difficult to control at certain times, say, when you are already running and a dog suddenly appears from out of nowhere and into your path.
You may also think that the seats are somewhat on the short side. Soon enough, your children will be sufficiently grown up, relatively speaking, before they hit their heads on the seat’s frame. In short, you will probably not get too much mileage before you have to change strollers.
All in all, however, the Schwinn double jogging stroller is a good buy because of its durability, comfort and safety in addition to the convenient storage space. Now, if only the manufacturers can lower prices to make up for the disadvantages or, better yet, remedy them.
