Valco Baby Tri Mode X
The Valco Baby Tri Mode X is a three-wheeled stroller suitable to handle any terrain. Although this all-terrain stroller features air-filled wheels, it is still sufficiently lightweight and relatively compact when folded. The front wheels can be used in three different modes: locked, swiveling or swiveling in 45°, which is the setting intended when using the second, elevated Joey seat that is similar to a bike seat. This elevated seat is suitable for an older sibling and can be added above the reclined main seat in place of the bumper bar. The Joey seat can only be added when the main seat is in a fully or semi-reclined position.
The front-facing, softly padded seat is spacious enough even for an older child. Thanks to the full recline of the seat, the Tri Mode X can be used for smaller babies too. To provide maximum comfort, the seat comes with a seat liner, soft head support and adjustable, padded safety belts. The stroller also features the double-extending EXPanda hood that features two extra panels - a full and a mesh one. Using adapters, a carrycot or a car seat can be added to the chassis. The Tri Mode X was also released in a premium version Tailormade that features melange fabrics.
