I’ve got the Cougar, and whilst I don’t have anything to compare it with, it’s brilliant. We’ve got the bike-trailer kit and the “stroller” kit, and I love the fact that you can store whichever you’re not using onboard. Means you can, for example, ride into town, park up and convert it into a pushchair to go and do the shopping. (Takes less than minute to convert).
Our lad had his first trip in it being towed behind the bike a few days before he turned 5 months.
I’m sure the top-of-the-range model is nice, but I wonder if it justifies the extra cost – the Cougar’s not exactly cheap anyway, and then you have to fork out for the Infant Sling, then the Baby supporter (which we’ve just moved up to at 9.5 months), bike kit, etc. I got ours from babyhuys.com – cost £530 last summer. I don’t know how the exchange rate will have changed.
Great bit of kit…
ETA: Think carefully before going for the 2-seater. I umm-ed and ahh-ed, but I’m glad I went for the single in the end – it’s quite wide and will only just fit through a couple of narrow spots on my regular routes.
