Niko Powerstride Series DoubleDutch Twin Jogger - TLL212S
When a jogging stroller seems to catch on every pebble on the sidewalk, it is usually a sign of a cheap, poorly-built product. That is one reason the Niko Powerstride Series DoubleDutch Twin Jogger – TLL 212S is made with four, 12-inch pneumatic tires.
Many jogging strollers are made with three wheels—with a single wheel in front to carry the load. Many of those wheels do not swivel, making the rig less maneuverable and more difficult to control. The Niko Powerstride Series DoubleDutch Twin Jogger – TLL212S supplies added stability with two front wheels that swivel 25 degrees for easier turning and change of direction.
Because of the large alloy rims and air-filled tires, the Kiko Powerstride Series DoubleDutch Twin Jogger – TLL 212S passes easily over rough terrain. The seat backs are adjustable 150 degrees. The padded seats and 5 point harnesses give the riders a comfortable and safe ride.
The DoubleDutch Jogger has a sturdy aluminum alloy frame to withstand a lot of punishment, but it weighs only 34 pounds so it is easy to fold, carry and store. Other great standard features are the retractable canopy with window the kids can see through, and a rain cover for stormy days.
One potential frustrating aspect of the stroller lies in the fact that the front wheels only swivel 25 degrees. If you have to avoid an object by making a turn greater than 25 degrees, you will likely have to raise the front wheels off the ground to steer around the object. It is not that difficult to do, and eventually it will become second nature, but it may slow down your jogging pace.
