Bugaboo bee plus rattle

Maybe daft question but have new bugaboo bee. Is it normal it makes a rattling sound (Sousa like coming from break axis) on rougher ground or when buggy board attached.
It steers and works ok (so isn't the front wheel fault) but is just very jangly when moving sometimes.

Mine is like that too i think it is because it is meant to be used on relatively smooth surfaces. I find that if I go off of the pavement and on the actual road or a dirt path it is quite rattley (if that's a word!).
I still love my Bee plus though!
HTH :)

It does ! Experimenting today and it's fine on flat surfaces but rattles on uneven cobbles .

Yes mine rattles too on uneven ground. I like my Bee but it is really just a "posing round the shopping centre" type of pushchair!

Mine's going back tomorrow. It's 8 days old. Mine rattles like a trolley even on smooth tarmac. Am gutted cos it's beautiful and I spent ages thinking about it before taking the plunge but it's no good. I can't live with it.

Update - they are going to swap chassis on mine as turns out break pedal /bar too loose hence the rattle. Will report back when have new one.
