Many buggy manufacturers have developed lightweight buggies and walkers that fold easily. This is particularly applicable to buggies with three wheels.

The buggy often has large wheels in both the front and back, which is crucial for bumpy or rough pavements or roads.

This is the case with the brand new 3-wheel buggy called Sport(tm), a travel system that looks stunning and is from the same company that is famous for their car seats (Maxi Cosi).
