We "ran" around the store with them and made our decision that way. I think it would be best if you know someone with one or a have a store you can go to and push them, as well as practice breaking them down and setting them up. <br /><br />Welcome to Mommy-hood!Lauren Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14753886779040284785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32536118.post-3965845675945073612010-02-24T16:34:48.990-08:002010-02-24T16:34:48.990-08:00I have a jog stroller that has the option of swive...I have a jog stroller that has the option of swivel or fixed, and I much prefer the swivel, it's just so much easier during races to manuver around them. And like someone else said, you end up using it on walks around town too (because they're soooo much easier to push then umbrella strollers), so the swivel option is far more practical in that regard.Jolenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16916813405545394628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32536118.post-4024325867273674832010-02-24T09:18:55.779-08:002010-02-24T09:18:55.779-08:00I have a single BOB sport utility stroller (fixed ...I have a single BOB sport utility stroller (fixed wheel) and it works great on & off road. I wish it had the swivel wheel though because it's much easier to maneuver in the city on sidewalks with people and in stores. I have a double BOB ironman which I love as well. However, I knew I would not be taking it on trails and I wanted the lightest weight one :D. Most of the new moms that I go to Baby Boot Camp with have the Revolution and LOVE it!

I will be eager to hear how it goes for you in time. <br /><br />I read about the revolution and it seems to get a lot of praise on line.

The ironman is tough to turn and I use it everywhere and it is not easy with the lack of the swivel. I can't believe you are so close.

I'm a very, very novice runner (more like fast walker) and actually found that I preferred to run with the wheel in swivel mode while on paved surfaces rather than fixed; I felt I had better control. Also, I thought the Revolution had a smaller footprint which makes it a perfect all-purpose stroller.<br /><br />Congrats on your new arrival!vedjenhttp://vedjen.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32536118.post-27437706993865006662010-02-22T19:01:30.588-08:002010-02-22T19:01:30.588-08:00What a great surprise!

I have a Mountain Buggy urban for walking in the neighborhood and a KoolStride with 20" wheels on the back and a fixed 16" front wheel for running. The few times I had to use the KS for something other than running sucked. The option of the swivel wheel is awesome for manueverability. I know there are a couple of discussion groups/forums (baby bargains comes to mind) that discuss the different stroller options. Maybe you could find a discussion or ask 'cause there are women out there that own MANY strollers and may have owned both.
