Britax B-Agile or Baby Jogger City Mini?

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with either of these. I looked at both yesterday and loved the foldability of them and the light weight. With the Britax, I would have to buy the extension for a different car seat because the Britax car seat it too big for my two door car. With the Baby Jogger City Mini, you have to buy the car seat adaptor but if you want to put a car seat on it, you have to remove the "sun canopy"? I would like to run with both?! Thoughts? TIA.Smile

    Between the B-Agile and the City Mini, I liked the B-Agile better when I test-drove it. That's what we got.

    I hear the City Mini GT is really nice, but I haven't actually seen one in-person. It's also more expensive than the B-Agile and regular City Mini.

    I'm not sure I would run with either one of these strollers, I think for running you may want to go with a real jogging stroller (with large rubber wheels). You can probably get one on Craigslist for a decent price to just use for running; and use the B-Agile or City Mini for your every-day stroller.

    We bought the B-Agile with the B-Safe car seat.   Super easy to fold up and glides really easily.  It doesn't have that bar across the bottom that I've heard people complain about with the City Mini.

    We test drove both and ended up with the B-Agile with the B-Safe carseat. The City Mini was pretty much the same, but it was more expensive and having to buy the carseat adapter on top of it, making it about $100 more made all the difference to us. Also the axle bar on the City Mini was annoying to keep kicking it. You can't run or jog with either though. For jogging you need a jogging stroller with larger, rubber tires, and better suspension. Baby Jogger does make a jogging stroller for running, I think it may be called the Chariot or something like that, and of course there's the BOB line now owned by Britax, and Baby Trend joggers.

    All of this.  Exactly why we went with the B-Agile and B-Safe.
