BOB Gear Wayfinder Jogging Stroller

If you're a runner who doesn't want to give up training after having a baby, the BOB Wayfinder is what you want. We've run hundreds of miles behind this stroller and it handles like a dream. The suspension system absorbs bumps and roots on trails that would rattle a regular stroller apart. The fixed front wheel (which can also swivel for walking mode) keeps you tracking straight at speed. And the hand brake is genuinely important for downhill sections, because using the parking brake at speed is terrifying and ineffective. The tire inflation is standard Schrader valve, so you can use any bike pump. The wrist strap is a must-use safety feature. The recline is nearly flat for newborns (pair with an infant car seat for the first six months). The storage is decent with a medium underseat basket and a pocket in the canopy. It's not a great everyday stroller because the three-wheel design and larger footprint make it awkward in stores. But for running and trails, nothing we've tested comes close. The fold requires two hands and isn't the most compact, so plan your trunk space accordingly.
