Does anyone find themselves kicking the wheels while jogging/walking? I'm 6'1 & my Britax always has me knocking the wheels, even while just walking.

This is very nice and excellent imam just call it stroller cause you can do either walking or jogging with it. the wheels are just working great. I don't have any issues at all. Even I could stroll on large spot of rocky areas. a relative from the outer islands even ask for it! she really knew it would suit her place for cruising around with the big wheels

We do it ALL the time!!! You might also want to look into the Joovy Bumprider Universal Stroller Board. :)

The only running I have done with the City Mini is across car-parks to make my kids burst out laughing. You can swerve about a little doing this and stay on all three wheels, but as Midori has suggested, you wouldn't find this stable enough for decent runs for exercise purposes. One little bump and you would likely topple.For that, you should look up the Baby Jogger Summit XC or another larger stroller. Unfortunately, you have to then also put up with the bigger size factor and the extra cost.I would still recommend a Baby Jogger product based purely on the fantastic folding mechanism.

The front wheels are rotating the back are not. For walking...I am 5'2" tall and it seems the perfect height for me. However, I am not sure if a taller person would be uncomfortable as far as the space for walking feet. You know, when walking and whether your feet would hit the wheel axle in front.

Handles much better jogging than my bumble ride! I have never had to lock the wheels, although I know that's recommended;-). I confess I even jog with the Joey seat on the front... Def not recommended by the manufacturer. Oops. Handles really well and is the only way to get out of the house with three babies.

We push our city select all over, hills included. It handles really well and feels like a smooth ride. I have not tried jogging with it as I have heard it is not ideal for jogging from a couple of girlfriends with the same stroller. We do walk fast with it with no trouble.

Yes :( Unfortunately that was our problem with it. I'm 5'7" 125 lbs. and fairly athletic and I had a VERY difficult time pushing it. PLus, it got stuck all the time on bumps/rocks/sticks and I had trouble getting it to keep moving. I live with 2 other girls and they had trouble too. We actually ended up getting a gas mower and are now going to try to sell this one. It seemed like a great idea, but we just didn't have the necessary upper body strength.

Yes I have the same problem. Make sure the front brake is released each time. I am considering returning stroller and requesting a new one. I actually wish I would have bought a stroller with the rubber tire like wheels.

Hi Hazel -- I wonder if you ever resolved this problem. I have been using this treadmill for a few months now and loving it but today it started making a clunking sound when belt running. I found the user manual online but there is no mention of the problem. You call it 'clicking' I call it 'clunking' but I think we could both be having the same problem, so am wondering if you ever resolved this. Any advice you might have would be much appreciated.

My husband is 6' and he has to hunch just a little to push. It's sort of a problem indicative of most strollers. It's not as short as some of the other strollers we own, but the handle doesn't adjust as our single graco one does. However, there's been no issue of kicking the bar, and my husband wears a size 13 shoe.

We have really loved using this stroller for running and it does really well. Haven't tried the BOB so can't say. But overall we have definitely enoyed it for walking, running, everything. One of the best things is that you can lock the front wheel for running or you can unlock it for walking. Lots of other joggers that we saw only have a locked front wheel. The only problem we've had with it is that it would pull to one side when locked. We figured out that the front wheel was not totally straight and contacted Joovy for a replacement. They were SUPER easy to work with and we got the new one in two days. Great customer service is always a big plus for products.

The backs of the Bob strollers are not completely upright but I have never found that to be a problem. I wouldn't trade my single or double for any other jogging stroller.

Mines run smooth,easy turns,no skids..if you had it for awhile im sure its just regular wear and tear as would anyother stroller but if its new .than did you try checking if your front wheel unlocked?that maybe the problem?or maybe its backwards? If not id definately return and get a new if possible and contact where you bought it from..hope that helps (:

I am 4 '10 and it worked good for me. Not sure for you. It may be. However, the all terrain is pretty big.. like a trike, so the regular size might be taller but not as bulky as wheels may be not as wide. It is not as easy to use as it looks... I struggled a bit... it was hard on my knee. Still useful.. let me get some activity during the rough period.

M, Hi there, when I am out running I usually push the stroller ahead of me (like give a shove and let it roll) and run behind it, so the height of the stroller is not an issue. I stand by my review: greatest invention ever. I recommend the rain cover as well, enables you to run in the rain and in cold temperatures.

Is it possible that they used to have this awesome and obvious amazing feature, and discontinued it in the newer model? When I walk at an adult's pace now, my toddlers little legs have to work like crazy to stay on the pedals. But we used to have one almost identical (the handle bars didn't join in the middle) that would click but let the kid rest her feet on the pedals without moving...

Hi, I am 5'2 and I dont think you would kick the stroller. I don't want to give you wrong information. I can't say you wouldn't kick it. I am sorry that I couldn't give yourself a better answer.
