ABC Design Mamba

DISCONTINUED in 2015

The ABC Design Mamba is a four-wheeled brother of the three-wheeler Cobra. The chassis is equipped with large foam wheels and a suspension system making the Cobra easily maneuverable even on the more challenging urban surfaces. Another advantage of this stroller is its large shopping basket.

The bucket-type seat features bold, contrasting fabrics and is suitable from six months up. It can be reclined fully, including the leg rest. The chassis is also compatible with the spacious Cobra/Mamba carrycot. This carrycot features a ventilated hood that can be used as a sun shield. Using adapters, you can add either the ABC Design car seat or one of the other well-known car seat brands. The Mamba is also available as a stroller system. You can recognize the older models by the plastic clasps on the hood and the reclining mechanism using a lever instead of the newer side buttons. The hood of the 2015 model featured an additional, extended sun visor. The same year, the newer Mamba Plus replaced the Mamba.

Your questions about the ABC Design Mamba

1)

Hello,

We have a whole ABC Design Mamba system, and we will be switching from the carry cot to the seat unit soon.
There is another family who could use the carry cot and the car seat, but we have only one chassis.

I would like to know, if I have to find a Mamba chassis to use the different parts of the set paralelly with the other family, or is there any other (better?) ABC Design chassis, which would also be compatible with the Mamba seat unit?

(And if you have advice on where to start looking for these, that would also be welcome!) :)

Thank you for your help,
Maria

Hey, Maria,

The Mamba and the Cobra from ABC Designshould have interchangeable parts. However, both are older models, so the only thing to do there is to browse classifieds and/or eBay for those parts, but it can be you won't find much.

Hello,

Can you please advise me which car seats are compatible with ABC design MAMBA stroller (2015) and are available for purchase.

Sincerely,
Sandra

Hey, Sandra,

You need adapters to attach a car seat to this (and it may be hard to get those). There are either adapters for ABC Dessign car seats (the end is kind of straight, with a little wedge), OR there are Max-Cosi adapters (with U-shaped ends) that will fit any Maxi-Cosi/Cybex/Joie/Nuna/Kiddy/Recaro 0+ car seat. You have to check whether you can get adapters (and which), the car seats compatible will be derived from that.
