Micralite SmartFold

DISCONTINUED

The Micralite SmartFold is a newer version of the Micralite Toro stroller - a full-featured, unique-design pushchair with the possibility of using it as a pram or a travel system. This stroller features an iconic aluminum chassis with large air-filled wheels in the back and smaller - agile rubber wheels in the front (as well as an unusual, adjustable handlebar that rotates). On the stroller frame, you'll find a bucket-type seat unit featuring three recline positions, including a fully reclined one. As a bucket - L-shaped seat, it is not the best for newborns even with the full recline, and it also is not reversible. You can use a carrycot or a car seat with adapters that are offered to be purchased separately (or get the stroller system in a bundle).

The surprisingly lightweight, sturdy chassis focuses on driveability and great maneuverability thanks to a good center of gravity. Its weight of under 10 kg, even with its large, air-filled wheels in the back, is also rare for this (full-featured) type of stroller. Many optional accessories are optional to buy, complementing your SmartFold, ranging from other colors of seat liners, UV protective sun shade, or a footmuff. Only a rain cover, seat liner, and a pump for the inflatable wheels are included from the start.
