Britax b safe with BOB Stride stroller (I want but they don't sell near me)

Okay so I decided on not getting a travel system but instead get the britax b safe, adapter, and the bob strides stroller. The only problem I have is that they don't sell any BOB strollers near me so I can't test it! Has anyone looked at this stroller for a travel system and have an opinion? Baby is due in December so I feel we will get more bang for our buck with a jogger.

which BOB? Friend has one (didn't get it until her LO was 2) but she loves it. Hers is purple but is a beast (for size & weight). Handles great! The shade cover does not cover as much as the Baby Joggers that I looked at (I have 2 City Mini's - one regular & one GT).

Even if you decide against the BOB for another stroller, the Bsafe will work with many other strollers & you might be able to get a snap n go type stroller for in the beginning if you are not loving the BOB for shopping type outtings.

We are going to use our bob stroller as our everyday stroller because we live in the mountains. Gravel roads, no pavement. We are in the country. So we need the bob since it would fit well with where we live. We also have an suv so space isn't a factor.
Using it in stores won't be an issue (as I recall using it before when I was a nanny and it's so easy and lightweight to push around)
Especially when the baby is older! I have also seen some people use it in the cities as well shopping etc.
We are in canada but ordered it on amazon.com (picked it up in the states and saved over 100 dollars on the stroller alone as well as free shipping in the states). So might be a factor to consider if you are Canadian.
I'm not sure about the model you are referring to. I have the bob revolution and love it. All I have to do now is wait for the LO to arrive so I can use it!
Good luck with making your decision!

I have this combo and it's been a great system for us!

Space is a valuable commodity at our house, so storing two strollers was not an option for us. Our BOB Revolution is, and always has been, our every day stroller. Yes, it's big. However, it's not crazy huge and it maneuvers extremely easily. The only store I've ever had a problem with is in Gymboree, but they pack that place super full. Everywhere else has been fine. I use it every day (hauling it in and out of my 4Runner at least once) and have no regrets on purchasing it. I love that I can load it down with bags and gear and not every worry that it will tip - even if I take LO out. In fact, when LO was about 8 months old I was talked into buying a Maclaren, but I used it a few times and hated it, so I sold it in favor of just using the BOB.

My only suggestion would be to skip the BOB handlebar console and get the Skip Hop one instead, the BOB one is kind of junky.
