I've had this stroller for about a year and like it, but today we blew a tire. Anyone have any advice about replacing them?

I would contact Guardian and see if they sell replacements. I would think they have a parts department.

I went to my local bicycle store and they were able to replace it. Expect to pay between 20-40$ but it can easily be replaced.

Our tires in the back wore out within months. I replaced them with Schwalbe kid plus tires. They are more durable.

I would not recommend this stroller outside in winter, since the tires are made of hard plastic...

Definitely! We went everywhere with the stroller, I originally bought it because I felt the tires were more sturdy than most strollers. I never had any problems .

Hi Blake, the machine itself is very heavy. If it is not throw ing the snow completely then I would replace them. Make sure they are not misaligned and dragging on the ground resulting from a broken auger bracket. Also, oil the wheel hubs. That might help. Good luck.

We had this problem about a month after owning the stroller. It became like a bad shopping cart that you had to fight to push along! I called Britax and they sent a replacement wheel free of charge and that seemed to solve our problem.

I had this problem too. I contacted Britax to get a new wheel and it works much better now!

Make sure all the tires are filled to the correct pressure as written on the tire. If this doesn't fix the prob I would contact baby jogger.

I had the same problem and was able to get a replacement. I called the vendor who sold the product (it's on the Amazon invoice), told them what happened, and they ordered a replacement which was sent directly to me.. Great customer service! The wheels shaft break because they don't fit snugly into the slot at the bottom of the leg. The wheel then slips out and breaks when you move the file. After you replace the wheel, try to crimp the slot with a pliers where the wheel is inserted. That may be tough to do. Try inserting flat sided toothpicks into the slot next to the wheel shaft and snap off the ends. This will create a tight fit for the wheel shaft.

I can say that the tires will not hold up over a year. It is disapointing that as we discuss going green you will need to buy new tires if you use this very often.

If you want to keep the stroller, a bicycle shop would probably be able to fix it. But since this happened the first time you used it, I would return it as defective, and exchange for another stroller. I am curious, if the reason the wheel feels wobbly , are you trying to jog or run without the front pin locked in place ?

You are very welcome :) I use it on my second baby and still love it. I hope you find a stroller you are happy with! good luck!

I am trying also to replace them and I got a e-mail back from a local bike shop that they might have the replacement. I am taking one of the wheels in to see if they have a match. I have lots of miles on the wheels.

Our Bob has worked like a dream. I'm sorry your tire popped off. I don't know if it has a warranty or not.

We purchased the same item about 1 year ago and have had no issues with it. The baby even bangs on it and messes around with it. It sounds like you have a defective unit and should request a replacement at no charge.

Call Barker ASAP. Have your receipt with the order number handy. They were really helpful when I had some questions. Both of ours came from barker with the wheels locked on. Best of luck getting this resolved.
