You need to flip the front wheel right out iirc. I don't know how to explain it better Confused Make sure that it isn't tucked under the chassis as it would be if you were pushing it iyswim, it needs to be at an 180 degree angle to where it usually would be

The safety catches from the bottom of the seat to the uprights from the wheels, they need to be undone first - think they are just straps that popper onto the frame.

right the wheel tip helped a lot.

don't know what the safety catches are, and it's still not quite letting me do up the catch that keeps it shut.

i'm nearly there tho!

Apologies for hijack, but is this one good for running too, or is it just the name?

CarGirl · 19/08/2010 18:41

no it's not good for running, baby jogger do lots of models if you google them they do produce running buggies too.

Thank you. I was hoping to get away with a cheap one! :)

Heathcliffscathy · 19/08/2010 18:54

still looking for the safety catches!

also does that mean every time you put the buggy up you need to do them up and every time down undo???

It's a while since I had one so I can't remember exactly, I just remember thinking "it's not one handed fold if you use them though is it!"

you need to unpopper the grey straps from the frame near the shopping basket, then pull up on the fold handle in the middle of the seat. Make sure the basket is empty and the front wheel is swiveled round the wrong way if you see what I mean.
The safety catch is an utter nail breaking bastard a bit fiddly but if you press the two sides of the frame together with one hand, and do up the catch with the other it works. Or you can ignore the safety catch like I do and just carry it by the folding handle and it stays folded quite helpfully that way.
