Babystyle Hybrid

DISCONTINUED in 2019

The Babystyle Hybrid is a variable stroller in an original design. The chassis of the stroller has a unique capacity allowing the rear axles to interchange. Each axle is designed for a different type of use. The City is narrower with smaller wheels. You will use it when maneuvering on less demanding urban surfaces. The Edge has larger rear wheels and is slightly wider, so even rougher terrain will not compromise the stability of the stroller. With the arrival of a new baby, or if you are looking for a practical solution for twins, the extended Tandem axle will allow you to create a tandem from the Hybrid. You can simply attach the second full-featured seat, a carrycot or a car seat to the brackets near the rear wheels.

The bucket seat is spacious enough even for a larger child. Using the adapter, you can raise it and bring the baby closer to you. You can rotate it to face either direction. It can be tilted to a reclined position. The seat has a simplified harness adjustment system more typical for car seats.

The stroller is either sold separately with optional accessories, or available as a stroller system. The original changing bag fits exactly into the shopping basket. You can also leave it open, thus enlarge the storage space.

Your questions about the Babystyle Hybrid

1)

Hi,

I have the hybrid pram, I got it in 2018 and used it for my twins as a tandem pram.

I have recently bought the Hybrid 2 carrycot and was just checking if it is compatible with the hybrid chassis that I previously purchased in 2018.

Thanks,
Claire

Hi, Claire,

Well, yes, it should be compatible as the attachment system did not change. The manufacturer doesn't really state it, but it should be definitely possible to click on, but as it is larger than the first one, as I am pretty sure it is, it may be it will take a bit more space from the second seat's surrounding. It should, anyhow, fit, yes.
