Hauck Freerider
The Hauck Freerider is a three-wheel stroller with the option of creating a tandem by attaching a second seat for an older sibling. The stroller is either sold separately or available as a stroller system with a car seat Hauck Freerider Shop’n Drive.
The main seat is fully reclinable, thus suitable from birth. It can also be complemented with an optional soft carrycot. The second seat can be reclined only partially, with zippers. Its hood is unconventional - it is zippered on like a rain cover, protecting the passenger from the elements. It can be detached completely.
The Freerider, due to the different seats and the possibility to attach only one car seat, is suitable for a younger and an older sibling. You can use it for twins, but only when at least one of them is able to sit independently.
