BOB Revolution

Anyone planning on using a BOB Revolution as their primary stroller?  I was pretty much sold on the Bumbleride Indie because we could use it with the infant seat, as a regular stroller and as a jogger.  I'm a little concerned about how good it will be as a jogger so I started looking at BOBs.  They sell an infant seat attachment, and then it can be used from 8 wks on as a regular stroller, and as a jogger.  They seem to be more popular with joggers, and DH jogs 100+ miles a month so I want something that will be a good jogger (not that he will jog all those miles with the baby, but we will use it more than just the occasional mile around the block). 

Any thoughts?  The BOB website seems to be promoting these as though they could do the job as a full time primary stroller, but I rarely see them around town other than at DH's races.

    I've used a BOB before and they're fabulous.

    We are getting the Bob and the infant car seat adapter. We went into a store and got the demonstration of how it folds up and moves around, etc and I really liked it. My neighbor has it and honestly when we walk it's so easy to steer!

    We are runners, and I think this is the one we'll get. From the reviews I've read, this is a great primary stroller that is also a good jogger. There are better strollers just for jogging, but I didn't think we'd get enough use to justify the cost of 2 $$$ strollers. You probably don't see as many around town b/c most people get a travel system.

    I haven't done any testdrives yet, but I'm more sold on the Bumbleride for now. I think the Bumbleride is a little bit lighter. Also, I've read some reviews that the baby never liked the Bob because the sides were so deep and they couldn't see out.

    As far as seeing it used as an everyday stroller I see it alot here in some of the beach communities. My hairdresser was just telling me she uses her Bob all the tiem.
