The canopy can be adjusted 5 different positions, giving a 125-degree range of coverage.  The 85-square inch clear viewing window allows you to easily keep an eye on your little one.

Handles, Wheels and Brakes

Swiveling Front Wheels

Swiveling front wheel for great maneuverability

The handle height is 40 inches, but is not adjustable. The handlebar is padded for extra comfort, and comes with a wrist strap that helps you secure the stroller when you’re strolling.

The three wheels are made of high-impact polymer with pneumatic tires, with tubes that take on any surface or terrain. The front wheel swivels, allowing for superior maneuverability. When going over tough surfaces, the wheel locks forward giving you increased stability. The front wheel swivels a full 360 degrees.

The tracking adjustment knob on the front wheel just needs a simple twist in order to keep you rolling straight.

The parking brake will help keep your stopped position; this is especially useful on hilly or uneven ground.

The SE Single Stroller Foot Brakes

Easy-to-engage Foot Brakes

The suspension is state-of-the-art and adjustable, which ensures a smooth ride for your baby. Two-position shock absorbers provide reliability and comfort. The elastomer and coil spring shock absorbers provide for 3” of wheel travel. There are two shock release knobs that allow for various occupants and cargo. Position 1 can handle up to 40 pounds, and position 2 can handle from 41 to 70 pounds. You can easily adjust between the two positions with a simple switch.

The rear wheel brake system can be engaged quickly and easily with your foot, providing extra safety and security.

Pros

There is a 5-year limited warranty on the frame, and a one-year limited warranty on the fabric and small parts. A limited warranty generally means that it covers parts and labor defects, but does not protect against misuse, accidents or mishandling.

The fabric and seats are easy to clean, and can wipe clean in seconds with a damp cloth.

Cons

If you’re looking for something that’s made in North America, you’ll be disappointed. The BOB Revolution SE Single Stroller is made in China. This in no way affects the overall quality of the stroller.

At 25 pounds, it’s one of the heavier models on the market. It is not something that you want to be lifting in and out of your trunk on a regular basis.

Although the stroller is easy to put together, there are no tools provided (some models include an Allen key for convenience).

Accessories

There is an accessory adapter that can be purchased separately. This adapter will allow a snack tray or infant car seat to easily attach to the stroller. The snack tray and car seat are also sold separately. Other available accessories include weather shields, handlebar console and warm fuzzy.
