Editor's BOB Sport Utility Stroller D'Lux Review:

 

Also know as the SUS D'Lux, this stroller is a true jogging class stroller. Unlike the Standard SUS, the SUS D'Lux is intended for smooth surfaces. Semi-slick tires make on-road performance top notch and afford less vibration than the knobby tires found on the Standard BOB SUS. The main difference between the BOB Sport utility stroller and Revolution series is the SUS's permanantly locked front wheel, no swivel option. Even though this makes it ideal for jogging and running, it handles like a freight truck in tight spaces. If you're looking for a mall stroller, be sure check out the Maclaren stroller line up.

 

Narrow, 16-inch, low-profile, high-pressure tires roll easily and are intended for roads or smooth packed dirt surfaces. If you're looking for an on/off road Bob Jogging Stroller, be sure to check out the BOB SUS. The Sport Utility Stroller D'LUX also features BOB's famous suspension, with 3 inch travel. You can see a lot of similarities between the BOB SUS and mountain bikes and be insured a top designed ride.

 

The folding system is the same as other BOB strollers reviewed and allows for easy collapse with its two-step fold up. Because the SUS's front wheel doesn't pivot, the profile is larger than the BOB Revolution when folded. Keep in mind you can remove the front wheel, via quick release if storage space is an issue. The seat is constructed from very rugged nylon which along with a tough frame can handle up to a 70lb capacity, held in place by a rugged five point harness.

 

The Frame is fabricated out of high strength aluminum alloy, which helps keep the Sport Utility Stroller down to 22lbs or 2lbs lighter than the BOB Sport Utility Stroller (All terrain Jogging Stroller). The ultra padded seat reclines up to 70 degrees, close to lying completely flat. With ability to keep pace with your jogging speeds, you'll be happy to have a safety wrist strap, parking and hand slowing break as well as padded 5 point harness adjusted by quick/easy to use pull tabs. You'll also appreciate the oversized sun canopy for ample coverage against the elements.

 

The wheels are constructed from Aluminum rims and Steel spokes and are a gracious 16-inch by 2-inch size. Ultra smooth wheel bearings ensure minimal resistance. Keep in mind that just like bicycle wheels the SUS D'LUX's metal spoke wheels may need professional adjustment over time, no big deal really. The front wheel remains locked in the straight position however can be removed via a quick release tab and requires no tools for removal. A front wheel fender makes sure no water or debris kick up to your passengers face.

 

Key Features:

  • Adjustable tracking
  • Fast & Compact folding
  • 3 inches of travel in suspension
  • Padded 5 point harness
  • Pull rings for quick harness adjustment
  • Front fender to prevent passenger debris splash

 

Buy it if you want a fully functional, true jogging stroller, meant for the road or hard pack surfaces. Don't buy if you plan to use in tight spaces such as shopping malls or running errands. If you're looking to run on mixed surfaces, we encourage you to take a look at the BOB Sport Utility Stroller (Off Road).
