The first one we had the locked wheel pulled to the left bad. So we took it back and tried another. Same thing. We've read about how to fix this and thus far, have not had success. It has been so frustrating! Also, sometimes it will randomly shake and rattle really bad while I'm running. Not cool! I'm looking for a BOB.... Review: Solid, Well Built but needs to pay attention to detail... - I just bought this stroller for my 10 month old son. I liked that it had a load weight of 65 pounds where most jogging strollers only go to 50 lbs unless you are paying way more. This should allow him to a much longer term of use since this will be his primary stroller as well as recreational stroller. It gets 3 stars instead of 5 because of 3 main things: 1) There is no padding to the sides of the stroller where a child's head can bump the hard plastic structure/joining points while going over bumps or rough terrain. 2) The cup holder is Useless. It is badly mounted and tips over because it is not deep enough and has a bad balance point. Not a good size for a large water bottle or a baby bottle. They seemed to have found the absolute worst design that allows for neither. 3) No Cup holder for the precious passenger. Other Thoughts: Car Seat Compatibility: My son's car seat is a rear facing Maxi Cosi and is not compatible with the stroller. It would be nice if it was but not critical. He can sit up and the straps are secure enough to keep him in. Would be nice if they had a little shoulder padding around the straps. Assembly: was easy except for the front wheel. You will need to find a older style Shrader hand pump that can fit between the spokes to pump up the tire. The spokes do not allow for the more advance duel head pumps use for Presta and Shrader valves. This was a minor thing since once inflated there should be little need for it again. Urbini Website: I went there to try and see if they had accessories or new add-ons to address my concerns. I did leave a comment but their sight is difficult to navigate and they do not seem to have anything to add to the stroller. Otherwise this is a solid and well built stroller that with a few tweaks could be awesome. The front wheel locking system works very well and stabilizes the stroller well when at the speeds of jogging. The ability to change the handle bar position helps avoid hand and arm fatigue while keeping positive control over your child. The shock system does help with the bumps for a smother ride. Just remember that there is no padding at the hard plastic joints and your child's head could bump into them. The single peddle break works very well. Worth the money over all just be aware of the issues. I will be working on finding solutions for the padding and cup holder. I hope this helps.
