SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA (November 14, 2002) -- Comfort. Safety. Capacity.
Unlimited access to almost any type of terrain. The same reasons parents
love SUVs also pertain to kids.
Introducing the '03 Sport Utility Stroller by BOB Trailers, tough and rugged
but also safe and secure. And no where is off limits: wooded trails, grassy
parks, even narrow singletrack is a breeze to take on with this sturdy
running stroller.
Built like a mountain bike with a patented suspension system, the Sport
Utility Stroller tackles tough terrain while at the same time providing a
comfortable, smooth ride for junior and a lightweight, agile,
easy-to-maneuver rig for mom or dad.
"Parents have the best of both worlds with the Sport Utility Stroller,"
said Damon Noller of BOB Trailers, a well-known manufacturer of bicycle
cargo trailers and accessories. "This is a sturdy, rugged stroller that can
handle all types of terrain, yet because of its unique suspension system,
still offers a smooth ride for their child."
Sporty and stylish, the Sport Utility Stroller safely carries infants and
toddlers, from 6 months up to 70 lbs. Best of all, precious cargo is snug
as a bug since the suspension system utilizes shocks to minimize bouncing
and jarring of baby's fragile head. With a lightweight, compact design (the
stroller weighs about 23 lbs.), it's quick and easy to fold - fitting into
the trunk of even the smallest compact car.
Features of BOB's '03 Sport Utility Stroller include:
* A full suspension system with mountain-bike style shock absorbers
providing three inches of give.
* Quick, easy, compact folding. "The easiest folding stroller on the
market," said Noller.
* A large adjustable canopy for full sun protection, with a "sunroof" on top
to peak inside.
* Wide, reclining padded seat with plenty of arm and leg room to grow and
generous storage areas for snacks.
* Adjustable safety harness, with color coded straps for ease of use.
* Rugged, quick-release 16-inch wheels in either high impact polymer or
aluminum, with wide tires.
Three models are available for 2003: the Standard, D'Lux and Duallie. The
Standard Sport Utility Stroller features high impact polymer wheels, and
comes in black, pacific blue or hunter green for $295. The D'Lux is an
upgraded model with aluminum wheels and available in the same colors for
$335, while the Duallie has all the same features listed above but with two
seats that recline independently. The Duallie comes in pacific blue with
high impact polymer wheels, and retails for $419.
Stroller accessories by BOB include the "Warm Fuzzy" seat liner, the "Sun
Shield" for sun, insect and wind protection and the "Weather Shield" for
rain, wind and fog. BOB Sport Utility Strollers and accessories are
available in sporting goods stores, specialty bike retailers and baby
stores.
BOB Trailers Inc., based in San Luis Obispo, CA, formed in 1994 to

became fathers, they designed and developed the Sport Utility Stroller in
