Looking for a replacement for my baby jogger city mini GT

Ah the place of my people. How I love to discuss prams!

Looking for a replacement for my baby jogger city mini GT

Love love LOVE this stroller but it’s on its last legs and I’m looking for something very similar but better - can anyone make any recommendations?

Things I liked about it :
Easy one handed steering
All terrain wheels
Big basket
Nice tall seat for older children (my four year old fits happily in it)
The huge hood

Things I didn’t like (and would hope for in the replacement):
Comfortable to use with a buggy board. I just feel if I got a buggy board I would have to really stretch out my arms to be able to push and walk without kicking the buggy board.
Also...the wheels seem to stick out and I always seem to get them stuck on corners and things. It just seems unnecessary for them to protrude so much!

Other strollers I like
I really love the mountain buggy duet, though I don’t need a double. The big wheels, easy to push, strong and good quality frame

Oh and the out n about nipper looks great too though it also looks to be of cheaper build? Don’t know if that’s true though, I only had a quick look at it in person

If you still about... ?
I loved the out n about nipper, fab buggy. Also v wide though.
Not sure much beats the gt for your spec! ! Heard good things about mutsy

I've had both the nipper and the citi mini GT, they are both excellent.

I would say that the nipper is more durable. Less trendy, but a quality pushchair.

Maybe a micralite? Don’t know about buggy board (though the twone comes with flip out buggy board!) but it’s designed to have wider front wheels so easy to manoeuvre through gaps.

Nipper is excellent build quality and I quite often see older siblings sitting on the front so you may not need a biggybboard!

Our nipper just gave up after 10 years, 4 kids (we got it 2nd hand) and a serious amount of overuse and overloading!! 2 and 5 year old in it for an occasional long walk home... am quite heartbroken for it

Another option could be an Oyster Zero. That's what I am using for my 2.5 year old. I chose it as it has a massive seat and takes up to 20kg (she weighs 17kg and is very tall!)

It's lightweight and the basket underneath isn't massive, but decent enough. I haven't used a buggy board on it so can't comment on how that would fit.
