What it does well

  • 24.9 lb, light for a jogger with a fixed front wheel
  • Fixed 16 in front wheel tracks straight at running pace
  • Thule names adapters for Maxi-Cosi and Chicco seats
  • 18 in rear wheels, larger than the 16 in rears on the Chicco Tre, Veer Switch & Jog and Joovy Zoom 360

What it gives up

  • $849.95, $50 more than the 4-wheel Urban Glide
  • 15 lb basket rating, against 22 lb on the 4-wheel
  • The fold is 35 in long, and Thule does not say whether it stands folded

What you lift

24.9 lb as Thule weighs it. Sold as lightweight, but heavier than the 22.38 lb median single here.

The first months: Newborns ride in an infant car seat. Thule lists car seat adapters for Maxi-Cosi and universal/Chicco seats and a Thule bassinet as accessories; no age minimum is printed in the spec table.
