Our Review of the BOB Revolution Duallie
The BOB Revolution Duallie is a significant modification of the original BOB Duallie design, geared toward urban dwellers that need a maneuverable and durable stroller that is also good for jogging. The Duallie provides a fully rotating, 12-inch front swivel wheel that locks into a fixed position for better control while jogging or during off-road use.
The front swivel wheel of the Revolution Duallie has a unique mechanism to help maintain balance and a straight roll while locked into the fixed position. Most strollers with swivel wheels have the option of locking forward, but they usually have too much play ('wiggle room') to be of much use as a jogging stroller. The Revolution Duallie's tracking adjustment mechanism keeps the jogging stroller from veering, which saves you from having to constantly push back to balance out your course.
With inboard rear wheels and measuring just shy of 31" wide, the BOB Revolution Duallie maintains a low profile and fits easily through standard doorways, making it an excellent double stroller for urban use. The individually, near flat reclining seats are foam lined and very thickly padded for maximum comfort. There is a large underside basket for storing your stuff and integrated pockets and cupholders in the seating area to keep your kids hydrated and occupied.
In addition, the Revolution Duallie has individual sun canopies so both of your passengers get the shade they want. Both seats feature 5-point harnesses for rider security, and the fabrics are entirely removable and washable.
The BOB Revolution Duallie is narrow enough to fit easily through standard sized doorways, so have no fear about taking it to the market or mall. Last, but certainly not least, the Revolution Duallie is extremely easy to fold up, and compact enough when folded to fit easily into your trunk.
Bottom Line: Joggers, power walkers, and people who just need a more versatile double stroller need look no further than the BOB Revolution Duallie. Even though it doesn't come out of the box with many bells and whistles, there is a full line of BOB accessories available that expand your possibilities.
Another great all-around walking and jogging stroller is the Baby Jogger Summit 360 double stroller. The Summit 360 twin stroller features automatic tracking instead of the BOB's adjustable tracking. The Summit 360 also features two rear 12" wheels instead of 16" rear wheels. The Summit 360 is two inches wider in profile than the BOB Duallie (33" as compared with the BOB's 31").

Comments from The Staff:
I'm so sorry to hear about the issues you've experienced with your BOB Revolution Duallie double stroller. We contacted BOB on your behalf, and here is what they had to say:
We are sorry to hear about the issues you are having with your stroller and I will address them in the order they were noted.
On the Duallie strollers there is a red tension strap located on the underside of the seat which is designed to attach directly to the lower swing arm of the stroller. This strap acts as an additional frame component and will provide the proper tension to the center of the seat when in use. If the red tension strap is not disconnected from the swing arm prior to folding the stroller, an excessive amount of pressure will be placed on the grommets on the underside of the seat, which could cause these grommets or fabric to tear.
All BOB strollers are designed to accommodate children up to the 90 percentile of five year olds. The maximum weight capacity is 100 pounds (50 pounds per seat) for the Duallies. For all stroller models, the seat back height is 21", depth is 9", width is 13.5" and the knee to foot rest measurement is 11". Located at the top of the canopy next to the handle bar is a yellow pull cord with a cord lock. When the canopy is retracted simply pull back on this cord and lock into place, this will increase the head clearance for your child. There is also a head pad, which is located at the top of the seat. This head pad can also be adjusted to allow for additional head clearance. To increase the head pad clearance simply disconnect this Velcro strap located between the attention and warning label, pull back on the strap and reattach.
The foam block insert is designed to provide additional stability and support to the approved car seats found on BOB's website. It is important to make sure the seat of the stroller is in the most upright position. If the seat of the stroller is in a reclined position this will prevent the car seat from being supported properly and cause the car seat to sit at an angle or move while in use.
The harness systems on our strollers are designed to accommodate children as young as 8 weeks; once approved by the pediatrician. If you are standing at the front of the stroller and looking at the seat back, there is a slide buckle. This buckle will move vertically on the black strap and is designed to be adjusted as your child grows. To adjust this slide buckle simply grasp the buckle with your hand and position it to where it is level with the child's shoulders. This will help prevent the buckle from rubbing on your child's head and neck. Once the height has been adjusted you will want to readjust the straps for the proper snug fit.
To meet ASTM stroller safety standards, the BOB Infant Car Seat Adapter with Snack Tray is required to be at this height. This is to keep a child's head from becoming trapped between the seat and Snack Tray if they were to try and slide out.
The seats on our strollers are designed to sit at an upright angle of 25 degrees from vertical. This was done to allow for adequate air flow out of the seat, which is located just above the child's head. If the angle was to be increased it would cause poor air circulation, which in turn could cause the children to become to warm.
For additional information on the proper adjustment of the harness system or adjusting the canopy and head pad for taller children simply consult your owner's manual or you can find the owners manual found on our website at:
