Mountain Buggy Single Urban Specifications
Certifications
Manufactured in New Zealand by an ISO 9002 company to an number of international safety standards and complies with British Safety Standard BS7409:1996.
Design Use
Mountain Buggy pushchairs are suitable from birth to four years and are designed primarily for use around town the swivel front wheel gives superb manoeuvrability on smooth surfaces - 'turn on a sixpence', as they used to say.
It is possible to 'lock' the front wheel to limit the swivel and this can be useful on very rough ground but it cannot be fixed like the
Mountain Buggy Terrain
model and the off road performance is not ideal.
Frame
Mountain Buggy pushchairs are constructed of lightweight heavy duty aluminium tubing and nylon fittings. High stress items like axles and the swivel wheel mechanism are of coated steel. The modular design means that individual components can be replaced if necessary.
The delightfully simple
folding system
makes everyday life simple.
Wheels
The 300mm (12") pneumatic wheels with double steel bearings are free running and more importantly give a smooth ride.
The
Quick Release Rear Wheels
come in handy when you need extra space in the boot for going on holiday.
We fit
Sureride Anti-Puncture Tape
to all wheels for added puncture protection.
Adjustable Handle
The
Adjustable Handle
has 16 positions up to a maximum height of 110cm (43") ! and when in average height position provides additional clearance for the more comfortable use of a Kiddy Board
Seat
The Mountain Buggy Urban seat angle is adjustable, it will recline to 15 deg off horizontal (almost flat) and is suitable for use from birth or you can add a Carrycot. The seat base and back are padded providing both cushioning and insulation from underseat cooling. The 2005 seat and sun canopy fabrics are a new all weather easy maintence fabric - very durable and washable (hand wash). Whilst the new fabric is not as soft to the touch as the earlier canvas seats it attracts less lint, hairs etc. and will be easier to keep looking smart.
Basket
The new basket is spacious with six pockets including one bottle holder and one 'zippable' pouch.
They've obviously put a lot of thought into the design of their pushchairs and how parents will be using them.
The specifications listed below are subject to minor variations.
Please exercise caution when comparing pushchair specifications between manufacturers - especially weight as they weigh them with different accessories fitted - they all like to show their product in the best light !. We have tried as far as possible to give the worst case maximum dimensions even when they are greater than listed by the manufacturer, the weight includes the basket and sun canopy.

Please note that the specifications listed above are as accurate as is practical to give, they are rounded for ease of presentation and are subject to manufacturers change without notice. The weight given is what we weighed it at and is slightly greater than that listed by the manufacturer. On the other hand because they detail the maximum point on the pushchair they may also give the impression that the pushchair is larger than it actually is when folded. If a particular dimension is crucial to you then contact us for an exact figure.
Maximum Tyre Pressure should not be exceeded and should be reduced if transported in the unpressurised cargo hold of an aircraft on a long haul flight.
We recommend that the tyre pressure is maintained at 10psi rather than the 20psi maximum because soft tyres give a smoother ride for the child and are less prone to punctures.
