Gesslein S3 Air+

The Gesslein S3 Air+ is a light three-wheeler with the chassis of the F3. The non-reversible, spacious seat is softly padded and identical with the model S4. Thanks to the higher weight capacity, it can handle even bigger children. The backrest can be reclined one-handed thanks to the simplified strap mechanism. A height-adjustable bumper bar comes with the seat. The optional reversible F3 seat compatible with the chassis of this stroller is also available.

The aluminum chassis is light yet sturdy. Three wheels with individual suspension can handle even a rougher terrain. The wheels are made of roughened rubber Air+. Thanks to the inbuilt air chambers, the tire is lighter, easily maneuvrable and sticks to the surface better. At the same time, it is quite sturdy, offering the advantages of an air-filled tire.

You can create a travel system suitable from birth by purchasing either one of two carrycots inserted in the seat (soft C1 transformable into a footmuff, or hard C2) or the classic hard carrycot C3. C3 can be added to the chassis in two different heights. There is also an option to attach the car seat to the chassis using adapters. Other accessories like a footmuff, a parasol or a summer kit are also available. If you choose your S3 Air+ with the handbrake or with a handlebar covered in leatherette, you will have to pay extra.
