The BOB Revolution and the Ironman are both great jogging options, but how do you pick the right one for you?
Both have 16 inch rear tires offering less resistance than smaller tires, making for an easier push. The larger wheel diameter also makes both joggers a comfortable option for taller users, allowing greater distance between the stroller and your stride, to limit kicking the axle. Both offer an easy, two-step folding, lightweight frame for convenient transport and storage. The car seat adapter allows you to click and go with your Chicco, Graco, or Peg Perego car seats.
So what is the difference between the two? Let us break down the Revolution vs Ironman for you. The first thing you need to ask yourself is what are you looking to do?

If you intend to use the jogger in a high traffic area, or like to venture off the beaten path, check out the BOB Revolution SE (Sport Edition). The Revolution SE uses a 12.5-inch lockable front swivel wheel and two 16-inch rear wheels, all high-impact polymer composite.
The unique mounting system for the lockable front wheel allows you to fix the front wheel, allowing for greater tracking while jogging, but also allows for the wheel to “revolve” making the SE a great stroller for downtown and light terrain as well.
The Revolution SE is perfect for any sport experience. From the zoo to the beach, zip through congested areas and around tight corners with ease. The state-of-the-art suspension ensures baby will have a smooth ride on the journey no matter how rough the terrain. Also available in a
Duallie two-seat model.

The BOB Ironman
Whether you’re a track trainer, regular jogger or somewhere in between, the Ironman is built to go as fast and far as your running experience moves you. The fixed front wheel, 16” high pressure, low profile tires roll effortlessly on hard surfaces whether jogging leisurely or at training pace speeds.
The high pressure tires, contribute to keep the rolling resistance down and the speed and efficiency up. On top of that, the seat reclines up to 70° (a 25° increase over previous BOB models) which makes for an almost completely flat “bed” should the little one get really sleepy.
At 21 pounds, the Ironman’s easy-fold, lightweight frame packs up quick so you’ll never be late for the race. Also available in a
Duallie two-seat model.
