Is the zapp xtra taller than the old zapp? Any alternatives?

I have an ancient zapp which I love (tiny, fits carseat etc) BUT I am 5'11" and my husband is 6'4" I find I hunch over to push it and he finds it almost impossible.

Are the new Zapp xtra handles any higher? I saw someone with one the other day and it looked taller... Is that just wishful thinking though?

Have any other tall parents found a tiny-but-tall stroller? We have a MB which we love but I would be so useful to have a small pram for holidays / travel etc which we could both push.

Quinny Zapp xtra: "The separate handlebars are not adjustable but they are taller measuring about 39-40" from the ground to handlebar depending on where you place your hands."

The Xtra chassis is exactly the same one as the normal Zapp chassis, the seats are interchangeable.
The BabyStyle Quicksmart aka Quicksmart Easy Fold apparently has a 115cm high handle compared to the Zapp's 102cm. I wouldn't get the three wheeled version as it'll be tippy, but the four wheeled one looks quite good to me.

Or if you've got £300 burning a hole in your pocket, then a BabyZen YoYo. Wink

The Petite Zia plus has adjustable handles but I don't know the maximum handle height. I liked the Leebruss Takeoff :)
