BOB Single Pro Stroller Review
When you're on a path or going to the aisles of your grocery store the stroller is easy to maneuver. The locking swivel wheel on the front lets you choose between a smoother or more bump-resistant ride.
It comes with many accessories to keep your baby comfy, such as a bassinet and a travel bag. It can also be used with a car seat for infants.
Safety
The BOB Alterrain Pro stroller is an extremely durable stroller that was designed for runners. The aluminum frame is durable and comes with several fasteners. It also has little flexibility. The fabric's design and the way it is attached to the frame, canopy, and basket is sleek and well-finished with no sagging or errant stitching, a common problem on other strollers. The round bar brake pedal is a system we've never seen before. It is a single action that pushes "pins" into holes to activate the brakes, making them simple and practical to use when running. The front wheel adjuster knob for tracking is easy to use and can help to get the stroller back on course if you lose track of where you're headed.
The big, tough tires on this stroller are able to handle bumps and debris easily and provide a comfortable ride for your child. The seat comes with a wide recline that can be locked into it's position. It also has the ability to use a magnetic peekaboo, as well as the five-point harness that does not rethread to ensure that straps are secure. Parents will appreciate the mesh pockets for water bottles, a movable sun visor and large, easily accessible storage bin. It can be used with an infant car seat via adapters, or as an accessory for travel.
One of the biggest drawbacks is that the stroller is large, which makes it more difficult to maneuver in tight spaces, and isn't as easy to maneuver on rough terrain. It's also costly. However, it comes with some characteristics that other full-size strollers do not have including a set of 12 inch rear wheels which can be changed to 16 inches in case you want to travel faster or over rocky terrain and a parking brake that locks both wheels in a single motion. It's a good choice for parents who are interested in jogging with their baby and want the ease of a larger stroller when they aren't running. It's not ideal for everyday strolling, so we suggest an option with a smaller size if you plan to use it for this reason.
Comfort
The stroller is small enough to fit through the majority of doors. This makes it easy to get in and out of the vehicle after your run. It collapses with just one hand and weighs only 33 pounds. This makes it heavier than most of the single strollers we looked at, however it is still able to lift and fit in trunks for the majority of people. It's compatible with car seats by using an separately sold adapter and can accommodate most major brand seats including Britax. Britax infant car seat our tester tested.
The handlebar can be adjusted to the perfect height for you or anyone else pushing. The frame is sturdy and has a few fasteners. This means that the fabric or frame is very flexible. The seat also has an enormous, cushioned canopy and five-point safety harness. The only downside is its weight. However, our testers did not notice any difference in their perception of exertion when they tried it.
Our guides and their children ran 3 to 5 miles over various of surfaces (paved roads and grass, gravel, and broken, bumpy pavement) and noted the ease they felt on each trip. They also took their strollers for longer walks and observed how well their children settled into the seat.
The stroller is a bit costly but some runners prefer it due to its amazing features. The swiveling front wheels and suspension are great for dealing with rough terrain, and its wide footprint gives plenty of stability. It also has a huge storage space in the rear, and can be equipped with a sunshade, snack tray, and a rear-facing baby carrier (not included).
The stroller is more compact than other double strollers we have in our list, but it's still fairly lightweight and easy to maneuver. It folds in a slide-and twist motion, and comes with bags that fit well on the seat's bottom. The shocks can be manually adjusted however they will reset to their original settings when you fold the stroller, so it's recommended to adjust them before every use.
Style

The aluminum frame is rigid and does not have any flexibility. It is a durable, sturdy stroller that is ideal for rough terrain and off-road. The design is seamless in connecting the fabric to the canopy and frame which gives it a chic design. The wheels are also larger that allow them to glide across tougher surfaces and reduce the impact of the rider and on the environment. This stroller's SmoothShoxa.C suspension is its main feature, as it minimizes bumps during runs.
It's important to be able to maneuver, whether you're running on a rough path or walking through the aisles of a grocery store. The Alterrain Pro is an excellent choice for both and the swivel wheels on the front can be delocked to allow for quick maneuverability even in tight spaces. The suspension and the locked front wheel provide stability to runners. The pneumatic tires and the large wheels minimize the impact on the ground and we found it easily handled asphalt, gravel, grass, carpet, wood bridges, roots, rocks, curbs, and more.
