bob revolution vs. bob sus
posted 12th May '06
so we're looking for a jogging stroller. we're joggers, but not serious runners. now, i love the idea of the revolution for the versatility, but we already have a umbrella stroller (inglesina zippy - love it). i'm wondering though, is the revolution a good enough of a jogging stroller? has anyone used it for this purpose? or do you just recommend getting the bob sus or the ironman?

It's really a question of how much you jog and what sort of terrains you hit. The Revolution is fine as a jogger as long as you're not going off-road. The tires are only 12'' so they're not really meant to handle much besides small gravel (when running-- obviously, they're fine for even more than that when walking). If you're not jogging too much or too long (e.g. over 1.5 hrs), the Revolution should hold out just fine if you've got the wheel in its fixed position. Over time, the tracking might get off a bit, but BOB's made it quite easy to adjust/straighten the tracking on the Revolution.
