Amazon.com Product Description
Everyone knows that babies can tire you out, but it's not the kind of workout that keeps you sane or in tiptop shape. Enter the Schwinn Free Wheeler jogging stroller, which encourages you to get out and put in a few miles with your baby in tow. The Free Wheeler is made of lightweight aluminum, with a 12-inch swiveling front wheel and sturdy 16-inch rear wheels for easy maneuvering and stability on sidewalks and city streets. The stroller is also comfortable for your child thanks to the large protective sun canopy--which includes a visor and weather shield--and the padded seat. And you can carry a whole lot more than your child in the Free Wheeler thanks to the variety of compartments, which include a parent tray, a child tray, a bottom basket for groceries, and several pockets for drinks and snacks. Other features include a five-point child harness, a parking brake and a tether for safety, an adjustable-height handle, independent rear shocks for comfort, a foldable frame for storage, and a 50-pound capacity. The perfect jogger for training in the neighborhood or crossing the finish line at your next 10k, the Free Wheeler measures 24.5 by 39 by 43 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 29 pounds. About Schwinn

 Why pay more? August 23, 2008
A. Little (Miami)
This is an excellent stroller for the price. We've taken it everywhere and it cruises over all of it without any problems. There is good coverage from the sun. Easy to operate foot brake. Lots of room for a growing baby. It is easy to steer due to the revolving front wheel which can be locked if necessary. I always feel sorry for people I see with the fixed three wheel strollers. Those things cant turn...
 TERRIBLE STROLLER July 10, 2008

I read all the reviews and decided to buy this stroller as I didnt want to spend too much money on it. When I got it I was so disappointed.
pros:
the basket in the bottom is nice and large
cons:
-it is too big and bulky
-it doesnt close all the way down
-the swivel makes tons of noise and locks into a straight position on its own because its so cheaply made.
-the tray is useless as the child doesnt sit up enough to reach it.
-its super flimzy and it feels like it is going to fall apart any minute.
I returned this right away and bought a BOB revolution... WOW!!!!!!! what a difference. IT IS DEFINETELY WORTH THE EXTRA MONEY!!! I love my BOB :)
Save the time and some extra money and buy a BOB instead!
Easy to maneuvre, wife loves it May 20, 2008

This is great for streets and trails. We have not yet taken it to a mall, but it should work great there too. It is highly maneuverable and should get through the aisles with no problem. The back recline is adjustable so even an infant can be made to sit properly.
Love it!!! May 19, 2008

I love this jogger, it's lightweight and easy to maneuver. It folds down neatly and my baby loves it! I wish he could sit more upright in it, I have found the tray obstructs his view since he can't sit straight up, but there isn't much space to put items in the tray anyway, and we are ok without it, so I removed it. We clip small toys to the frame (so he can't throw them out the side) and that does just fine. I like the larger canopy, though I wish the bottom storage compartment were a little bit larger. But we use it to work out and go to the park, and not for really long day trips, so it fits our needs perfectly. Well worth the money! I get a lot of compliments on this stroller too, you don't need to spend $400 for a BOB!
Love it May 19, 2008
