New Mountain Buggy Models

From Dec 09, new models of Mountain Buggy will be available. The changes are quite subtle, so don't think that the buggy you have grown to love is going to be lost forever.

The Single Urban is now called the Urban Jungle and the double is called the Duo. The Elite models have all been discontinued, along with the terrain & triple buggies.

The main changes are -
  • The wheelbase has been made narrower
  • The sunhoods have been made bigger and smarter
  • The harnesses have been enhanced
  • Bumper bars are included
  • The Swift now has a carrycot option
  • The Duo has individual sunhoods (rather than 1 large one)
  • The Urban Jungle suncover zips directly onto the hood
  • New colours for the Urban Jungle and Duo

We don't know if there will be price changes yet but we will have our website updated with the latest info as soon as the buggies release.

Hi Deb
I see you have loaded the 2010 Mtn Buggy models onto your wensite - well done :o)

But I am disappointed to see no 2010 Swift!
Is it still coming? Please let me know...

thanks so much
Ruth

Deb said...

I have just put it up for you. I still have about 4 new products to add. The Swift carrycot is one of them but should get them up tonight.

Ruth said...

thanks for doing that Deb!
I have just made my purchase of a 2010 Swift, a chilli sleeping bag and swift 2010 sun cover :o)

can't wait for them to arrive!
my 6th baby is 13 mths, and this buggy is for him.

We've been borrowing a MB Urban, as the Bertini Steerable Stroller I had for the 2 previous babies died a well used death ;o)

I'm glad the excitement in buying a new buggy is still the same even for the 6th child :o)

With thanks
Ruth

Wow 6 kids! I brought a Swift in Sept for my 3rd. Its a great buggy. I have owned an urban single, and a double in the past. All great buggies.

Hi i was just wondering if the new carrycot for the swift will fit on the older swift models. I'm thinking about buying a swift (without the bumper bar) and wondered if the seat of this will come off to connect the carrycot?
Thanks,
Christie

Deb said...

Hi Christie

Yes the new Swift carrycot will work with the older Swift buggies.

Thanks

Deb
