Another MB question!!

I'm looking at both the fixed wheel and swivel wheel MB but not sure if there's any major difference between the two (apart from the obvious!!).

I currently have a cheap single three wheeler that has a fixed front wheel and manage just fine with it. I only use it for walking to school and to the park etc. I wouldn't be putting it in and out of a car or walking around shops or anything like that

i have the fixed wheel (the terrain) and relly love it. it's SO light to push that you really don't miss having a swivel wheel at all

Fixed wheel for me as well (terrain) live in London, X country quite a lot...it's great!

I noticed, when looking on ebay for second hand ones, that on the urban (swivel wheel model) nearly all of them had really saggy seats.
whereas the seats on the terrains weren't at all.

must just be a difference in the way they're made/put together. but the saggy seats would have annoyed me lol

Thanks for the replies! I'm glad to hear the terrain is a good option as it seems to be considerably cheaper than the urban.

I noticed the saggy seats on the 2nd hand ones on ebay and I think they might annoy me too!!
