Gesslein Indy Comfort (Classic)

The Gesslein Indy is a stylish, award-winning high-end stroller. The chassis features an all-wheel suspension and is easy to maneuver. The design of this stroller is focused on the central joint which has multiple uses. It is the point where the carrycot, the seat unit, and the car seat are attached, where the handlebar is reversed, as well as where the folding of the stroller is centered. Wheels are made of hardened rubber. Thanks to the inbuilt air chambers, the tire is lighter, easily maneuvrable and sticks to the surface better. At the same time, it is quite sturdy, offering the advantages of an air-filled tire.

The Indy can be fully customized. You can choose either white, black or anodized silver chassis. The black, titanium, cognac or tobacco colors of the leatherette handlebar covers and bumper bars are available. Most importantly, the choice of four types of the seat unit allows you to create your desired variation of the Indy. You can choose the Comfort seat which is typical for the Gesslein brand (originally named Classic) or the Active bucket seat. If you like the idea of the strap recline, the hammock-type Sport seat may be your choice. The modern Style seat is positioned slightly higher on the chassis. The Gesslein offers a choice of the carrycot too so you can create a system suitable from birth. There is the simplest, classical Smart carrycot featuring the breathable mattress which has replaced the stylish Relax carrycot. The Bubble carrycot is spacious and its mattress can be inclined. The carrycot can also be replaced by the soft carrycot Cozy which has a firm, ventilated base. The Cozy is only compatible with non-bucket seats Comfort, Sport or Style. You can also attach a Gesslein or a different brand car seat to create a travel system. There is a rather large amount of accessories that can be purchased to compliment the Indy: front all-terrain, fixed wheels, various types of footmuffs, the Indira changing bag, an apron, a parasol or even an electrically heated handmuff for the parent.

The Comfort seat unit is typical for the Gesslein brand - its shape is the same as in the F or M series. It is reversible, fully reclinable and quite spacious, with an extra large ventilated hood can. It is possible to increase the total length of the seat by extending the leg rest. The seat unit also features the Loop seat liner made of the Cell Pur foam and head support.
