The Mutsy Urban Rider is a variation of the 4Rider with a specific type of all-terrain chassis with four large, fixed, air-filled wheels. To compromise for the lack of the swivel wheels, the Urban Rider features a swivel axle instead. After unlocking it, the axle will enable you to handle the turns easily, in a ‘wavy’ manner.

The seat unit can be fully reclined using a specific system - after pushing the mechanism on the side of the seat, using the other hand, you need to adjust the depth of the seat. Depending on the version, the modern carrycot has one or even two pockets, where you can safely store small items. Thanks to the memory buttons, the carrycot as well as the seat unit can be taken off the chassis using just one hand. The Duoseat, suitable for siblings featuring a shorter- 41cm backrest - is also available for the Urban Rider. The double version offers only a partial recline of the bucket-type rear seat.

The stroller is available in a bundle. Alternatively, you can create the desired system by combining the chassis with either the seat or the carrycot, and chosen accessories. You can choose from two types of chassis - the Standard with a foam handlebar or the superior Next with a leatherette handlebar. Depending on the type of material, stylish collections such as The Cargo, the Team and the Active are offering 16 colors of the seat unit and the carrycot altogether. Apart from the seat and the carrycot, other accessories are available such as the second rear shopping basket; the Funseat imitating the tricycle and containing a large Beach Bag; the smart board for an older sibling or the Babysitter Chassis that enables you to transform the seat into a rocker. There are also other, more basic optional accessories available - footmuffs, seat liners, a luxurious raincoat, a parasol, a changing bag, and a rucksack.

Parent reviews of the Mutsy Urban Rider

if you own(ed) it, own it ;-)
parents say thx^^
  • Big but not too heavy
  • You can use the pushchair from 6 months of age
  • Great wheel design
  • You can wash everything
  • Goes almost everywhere, no matter if snow or forest path
  • The bassinet is a bit small - we were 5 months old in February and there was not much space with the footmuff
  • When the baby sits to face the mum, there is nowhere to attach the apron

Really great stroller for the first baby! I bought it used, but I would be happy to buy a new one. I am happy with it!

  • Sporty frame
  • Not combinable with other brand's products

Inherited from my sister after two children and still working well. Just unfortunately she sold the car seat and the adapter doesn't fit on other capsules.

  • good maneuverability even in worse terrain
  • spacious seat unit
  • easy adjusting of the handlebar
  • bulky and heavy
  • the storage space is not well-thought-of
  • the backrest adjustment is impractical

An excellent all-terrain stroller. Thanks to the swiveling chassis (not the individual wheels) is the manipulation quite easy even in the forest or through the snow. Not that suitable for the city, however.
