Do you have a BOB Revolution? I need a picture!

ShumNum · May 23, 2010

Do you have a BOB Revolution stroller? And if so, would you be willing to take a couple 'close-up' shots of the front wheel? I got a used BOB and something is funky/broken with the "fixed wheel" mode and I can't figure out what it is. If it's easier I can send you my email address. Thank you so, so SOOOO much!

I was all set to do this for you, then realized that my BOB is at my friend's house! I am going over there tomorrow, so if you don't get any replies by then, I will take some pictures. Is there a problem with getting it to change from the swivel wheel to fixed?

I am almost postitive the wheel is locked in these pics. In case you didn't know, the front wheel locks out, not in, like other strollers.

Jennifer, Thanks so much for posting. I actually need a really "close-up" shot of that front wheel...specifically the swivel/lock mechanism. I think the previous owner "jerry-rigged" something on mine...but I'm not entirely sure what.
I will try to take a picture of mine, too.

Thanks for your help!!

okay, I figured as much, but went from my account, hoping

I can get pics tomorrow, and you posting pics will help me figure out what you mean. IT sounds really off, if you can't lock it, kwim?

Tomorrow is supposed to be hot here, and my oldest is home to help me, so I can take whatever pics you may need.

If you let me know tonight, I can check tomorrow before I go out, kwim? Meaning, I will check my "stuff" before I get moving for the day

I'll make you a deal. I'll post the pic of BOB up close if you can tell me how to post pics.

I got as far as Community > pictures and albums, but didn't see anything useful from there. Am I close? The FAQ said to go UserCP > pictures and albums, but I saw no such link.

Sorry, I'm new.

npauli,
in order to post pictures you have to have a photo hosting service such as photobucket.com. If it's easier, you could email me the photos as an attachment? Let me know and I will give you my email address.

Jennifer, thank you so much! It's dark here now and I tried to take a picture but it came out all fuzzy.

Hopefully I can get a picture before I go to work tomorrow.

Thank you everyone for your help!

how's this:

ShumNum · May 24, 2010

AWESOME! Thank you! As I suspected, it's missing that whole silver screw/bolt thing!!!!! Hopefully BOB still sells them as a part.
Thank you so so much!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jennifer mom to my 7 · May 25, 2010

Ooh, and I think that bolt is the tracking bolt, so you can keep the stroller straight, kwim?

Ah, yes, it is the tracking adjustment knob. It is on the chart of the anatomy of the stroller in the manual I linked to.

ShumNum · May 25, 2010

"Tracking Adjustment Knob"...that makes perfect sense. Here's a not-so-great picture of mine. It's missing the whole "spring" piece. Thank you guys for helping me trouble shoot!

Do you have a BOB Revolution? I need a picture!
