Looking for good jogging stroller for GRAVEL roads

[grumpybear]

Anyone?
So far I'm inclined to pick either the BOB Revolution or the Tike Tech ATX.
But sadly, I can't take a look at them and try them out before I buy because I have to buy online. Any thoughts?

I was in the exact same boat as you. I needed a jogger/all-terrain for the greenway trails in my area (gravel), but there were no stores in my area for me to actually see & try out any of my choices.:mad:
I got alot of help here & did alot of research on the strollerswap & strollersandbeyond forums and strollerqueens website. I also read all the opinions on epinions.com. (very helpful to hear what others had to say).
Another great resource was Michelle from Baby on the Go in St. Louis. I think her website is www.babyonthegostl.com (?). She answered all of my questions (I had a ton) & helped me pick the best for my needs. I ended up going with the Baby Jogger City Series Single (love it). The Bob was my other choice. Oh, her prices were better than anyone elses too.
I am still curios on how well the Bob handles, so if you go with that one please let me know how you like it.
Good Luck:D

Just an FYI, Michelle has closed her store and is moving out of the STL area. She is opening a new store. I LOVE her, she is a great source of information and has terrific prices. I got my orange and black Joovy Caboose from her, along with some diapers bags AND she is now starting to carry carseats, starting with the Recaro.
She has a new website, but I can't locate it right now. But I know that if you go to www.babyonthegostl.com you can still get in touch with her, I believe through the end of June.
Best of luck deciding. Bob strollers are GREAT!

get air-filled rubber tires, that will make a HUGE difference.

I played with a bob revoultion today at usa baby and LOVED it! Granted, I didn't have a kid with me to try it out with but it was still really nice:thumbsup:
The wheels are really big, so I think they would handle the gravel really well. It has amazing suspension, I don't think the kid would feel a bump! lol
oh, and the pink and brown one is to die for ;).
