Small folding, smooth pushing, buggy boarding wonder for big occupant?

[AlanMoore]

Title says it all really :) don't have a big budget so may go 2nd hand, but will need something that folds small for getting on the bus and can take a buggy board. Baby is well above 75th centile so generous seat if possible! Currently using b dual which is lovely but soooo big.

Contenders so far;

BJCM
Cosatto Yo
Nuna Pepp

Would appreciate your thoughts :)

Can the Pepp take a buggy board? I can't imagine how it would connect. I'm guessing your budget is at least £170 if you're including a Pepp, so you could look at a Bugaboo Bee (not Plus so may be a bit small seat wise). Also Quicksmart, Maxi-Cosi Noa or just a normal stroller like a Chicco LiteWay.

I have heard that the BJCM is trouble with a buggyboard on but haven't actually experienced it. I would be looking for something where the board rider can get their head and self inside the handlebar, so 2 handles or a bar one with space between it and the seat. I have a b agile which I really like but am getting rid of due to there being no sensible way to attach a standing buggyboard (I did use a sit down one on it for quite a long time). The original bee sounds good though, I've always thought it looks really neat with the board on.

I forgot to mention the Mutsy Evo which is worth a look and would probably work really wel with a buggyboard as the handle is far from the seat when put horizontally.

Do you need to fold it to get on the bus? If so how do you do it with the baby? I would normally say get a BJCM for the one handed fold but I don't know how easy it is with a buggy board on the back because the BJCM folds with the rear inside IYKWIM? A friend pushed a BJCM around yesterday with a Lascal Maxi board on but I hate pushing with a board on.
The Mutsy Evo would give you g

Lol DD pressed send!

I was trying up say the Mutsy Evo would give the toddler space to stand without getting in your way but I wouldn't like to fold it with a buggy board to get on a bus although there is a handy carrying handle. The handle can be dropped right out of the way though making it compact to park on a bus.

I think the Oyster folds neatly with the buggy board on.

I think you need to wait for a Micralite Twofold ;) but I know that's not helpful right now!

Don't think the budget would stretch to a twofold. What about a joovy, that sounds like it might work depending on age of baby?

If I was getting the bus the toddler would either be at nursery or we wouldn't be walking far so could manage sans board.

When folding I co opt a bystander but once was the only passenger so the driver held her :) the one handed fold is a myth as far as I can tell, certainly never managed it with either of mine (silver x pop & Maclaren triumph). Had a look at the cosatto in mothercare, I like it - I think the rain cover in a bag is swaying me! Such a good idea, I hate rain covers. The seat looked nice and big and they are less than £150. If they take a board I think I have decided...

I was looking longingly at a brio go on ebay, let me find a link for those of you fans of the raincover in a bag... check out the picture at the bottom there are three!

I can't see on my phone but the idea! Lovely! Why pram manufacturers think we want the shopping basket taken up by flapping rain covers I do not know [cross]

Bjcm is a nightmare with a buggy board. Not enough room Under the handles for kid to stand and unless you have even longer arms than me (unlikely, I'm half orangutan I think) you will be constantly standing to one side or kicking the board whilst walking.
Cosatto yo is big enough for a large toddler, but heavy to steer as they get bigger and again, not much room for a board.
Never had nuna pepp but can't see anywhere you could attach a buggy board to tbh.
