Baby Trand Jogging Stroller…front wheel wobble…help??
i have the baby trend expedition jogger. The front wheel is the kind that moves or you can lock it to keep it straight.
When its unlocked it wobbles big time, even if im walking slow. I read the instructions many times and it is installed correctly. I even tried tightening the bolt under the foot rest like they say but it was already tight.
Anyone had this problem and how did you fix it?
I love the stroller and dont want to take it back
Thanks

As far as I know, this has the same mechanics as a bicycle. The front bearing come loose inside the hub. That would be a job for a larger wrench, turn clockwise beside the hub, possibly with the wheel removed. If too tight, the bearing grind and the wheel has resistance.
If you’re like me, you can just take it into a sports store where bicycles are sold, you sound like a potential customer anyhow, and be friendly, start a conversation about it, and the technician will fix it for free in 5 minutes. Good luck.
My son has had this same problem. There are two things wrong, first the bearings don’t fit into frame snuggly so we use plyable epoxy which we got in the plumbing dept. @ Home Depot and wrapped around the bearing journals and reinserted into frame. You can also use flat rubber bands but these compress and will need to be replaced. Also the shaft on the fork in too soft and bearings become loose so I used a prick punch to expand metal so the bearing have to be pressed on. This seems to have taken care of this problem for now.
