Review written December 2005 by Trey

This may not be a usual review to have on trail running site, but we are all other things besides trail runners and I am first of all a parent.  It is my love for my boys that often forces me to run the roads or park trails as opposed to the off-road trails we all love and for this I now have a BOB. Kind of an odd name for a stroller, BOB, but the name is the only odd thing about my BOB. 

I will admit to you, this is one impressive stroller.  My BOB came with 16” spoke wheels (not the mag wheels you usually see) and double drink holders for each boy.  A drink holder does not seem like a necessity for a stroller, but if a cup of goldfish keeps everyone happy for 15 extra minutes then my 4 just turned into 6.  In addition to the cup holders the BOB features shocks and extended handle for you long striders and the easiest fold up mechanism I have yet to see on a stroller. 

Pros – The folding process and weight make it easy to use
Cons – Even the shocks still don’t allow you to take it off road.  And the price, it was not cheap.
