Does this bike come with the front wheel to convert it into a jogger. Has anyone jogged with it?

No. You'll have to purchase the mini stroller conversion set separately for $70.98 from Amazon.

No, it does not come packaged with a front wheel but there may be a conversion kit available.

No, it does not come with it. It's sold separately. I purchased the wheel and the handle and made mg bike look like a jogger but ira actually not made for jogging. It's more like a stroller. I tried to run with it but the wheel wiggled and did not move smoothly.

It's not really designed for running. The wheels are hard plastic, not rubber. It's more a jogging style look as opposed to function

Make sure the front wheel was installed properly. Reinstall the front tire and make sure it "clicks". Take it off the jogging position. Make sure you have enough air in the tire. You should be fine. Happy strolling.

I haven't jogged with mine, but I think you could jog with it. I never had a problem with my dogs' weight shifting and the stroller being unbalanced and my dogs acted all crazy in it because we were at a pet fair where there were several other dogs getting them excited. I had 2 small dogs in it. One weighs 22 lbs and the other 11 lbs. Hope this helps. PS- if the stroller veers to the left or right it's because the person didn't have the front wheel locked in place to face forward.

Yes, the front wheel on this jogger does pivot or you have the capability to lock in it the straight position.

We really enjoy this product as a bike trailer for our dog. I'm not sure how well it would work as a jogger though. The front wheel, once installed, is lock in the forward direction. It does not turn or swivel like a stroller. Other than that it is a very well constructed product.

Yes, and I love this bike! It's a great piece of exercise equipment. I ride 12 miles per day on it, it's been great.

There is a small wheel in the front. When you unattach the burley from the bike it will convert to a stroller

I own both the Ironman Dualie and the Revolution Dualie (and coach cross country) and have found that the revolution is more run worthy than I thought it would be. I fun with the front wheel free, as the fixed wheel doesn't hold a line well, and the free wheel is so easy to steer, particularly with the heavier load. The only scenarios where I have minor issues are on routes with meaningful hills, as the revolution has no hand brake, and when running faster than 8 minute miles over bumps. If the front end comes off the ground at faster speeds the wheel drifts and when it comes down catches momentarily before straightening out, which causes a sudden deceleration. Not an issue at jogging speeds, but something to watch for. That said I trained for my first marathon with the Revolution. The Ironman is awesome for trails/off-road that's stroller worthy, hills, and for running on paved trails. I ran our neighborhood with it for two years and you adapt to steering with the front wheel up pretty quickly. In either case, keep track of your load weight and adjust the shock setting when you exceed 50 lbs.

I had the same issue. Call Baby Jogger; they'll replace the front wheel if you're still under warranty.

Convert your POD Chassis into a jogging stroller in a few seconds with a the POD Jogging Kit. This kit includes a 16" pneumatic front wheel that is fixed straight making it an ideal option for true runners. The Jogging Kit snaps on in seconds with no tools needed for assembly. (Sold Separately)

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 front wheel does shake quite a bit, so I would tilt the entire stroller when running. It's a great workout when you have to do that!!

It's just parts for the trailer. The "Baby Jogger Pod" comes with a front wheel for jogging. The "Trailer Kit" is an attachment that allows you to convert the Jogger into a bike trailer.

There is a large velcrow pocket in the back that is very large. There is also a separate compartment that has a access behind the seat, which is zippered. I was able to get the jogging wheel by contacting Pacific cycle directly, maybe they are not available anymore.

Has anyone found anywhere else that you can buy the jogging kit? Looked at peferctly safe and they are out and they aren't being manufactured anymore from schwinn. Thanks for any input!
