AGE RECOMMENDATIONS
BOB recommends that your child
should be at least 8 weeks old before
riding in a BOB stroller without a
BOB Infant Car Seat Adapter and
compatible infant car seat. Please
note that babies incapable of holding
their head up must have additional
head and neck support to ride safely
and comfortably. For jogging or offroad stroller use, children should be
at least 8 months old.
With the addition of the BOB Infant
Car Seat Adapter and compatible
infant car seat, newborns may be
able to ride in the stroller. Children
develop at different rates. Prior
to first use, consult with your
pediatrician regarding suitability of
stroller use with your child.
Please refer to the below table for
age/use guidelines:

STROLLER ASSEMBLY
UNPACK STROLLER
Remove stroller and wheels from
box. Front wheel is stowed in folded
stroller.
Remove all
packaging materials and discard to
avoid choking and suffocation
hazards.
WHEELS
Before attempting to install wheels,
read and understand warnings and
instructions completely.
Using your stroller
with an improperly adjusted wheel
quick release can allow the wheel
to vibrate, wobble or become
detached from the stroller. This can
result in serious injury or death.
Accordingly, it is critical that you:
• Ask your dealer to instruct you
on the proper technique for
safely installing and removing
your wheels.
• Understand and use the proper
method for securely clamping
a wheel to the stroller using a
quick release.
• Check to make sure the wheels
are securely clamped before
each use of the stroller.
The wheel quick release is a cam
device that supplies the clamping
force required to hold the stroller
wheel securely in place. To safely
secure a wheel to the stroller, it is
critical that you understand how
the quick release works, how to
use and adjust it properly and the
amount of force necessary to safely
secure the wheel.
The quick release is
a cam device and must be used
correctly to supply the necessary
clamping force to safely hold the
wheel in place. It is not a wing nut
system and turning the lever while
holding the tension adjusting nut
does not supply the required force
to safely clamp the wheel in the
dropouts.
7
OMB15/B
ADJUST QUICK RELEASE
The rear wheels are correctly
clamped in place by the force
generated when the quick release
lever is closed and the cam action
pulls the axle against the dropout,
securing it in place.
The front wheel is correctly clamped
in place by the force generated when
the quick release lever is closed
and the cam action pulls the lever
housing against one dropout, and
pulls the adjusting nut against the
other dropout, clamping the hub
between the dropouts.
The tension adjusting nut sets
the amount of clamping force.
Turning the tension adjusting nut
in the clockwise direction while
preventing the quick release lever
from rotating, increases the amount
of clamping force. Alternatively,
turning the tension adjusting nut
counterclockwise, while preventing
the quick release lever from rotating,
reduces the amount of clamping
force. The tension adjusting nut only
needs minor adjustments to provide
the correct clamping force, less than
a half turn can mean the difference
between safe and unsafe clamping
force.
REAR WHEEL INSTALLATION
1. Unlock Parking Brake
Prior to installing the rear wheels,
position the parking brake in the
unlocked position.
2. Rotate Quick Release Lever
Rotate the quick release lever so it
curves away from the dropout.

3. Insert Rear Wheel Stub Axle
Insert the rear wheel’s stub axle into
the hole in the rear dropout. If the
axle does not slide in easily, loosen
the quick release tension adjusting
nut by hand. Re-insert the axle fully
into the rear dropout until the axle
shoulder or snap ring on the axle
comes in contact with the dropout.

OMB15/B
To TIGHTEN tension adjusting nut,
turn clockwise.
FULLY CLOSED
To properly close the quick release
and secure the rear wheel in the
dropouts, confirm the axle is fully
inserted in the dropout, while
maintaining the wheel in this
position, rotate the quick release
toward stroller and into the FULLY
CLOSED position.
When properly closed, the curve of
the quick release will be pointing
toward the dropout and angled
slightly toward the center of the
stroller. To generate enough
clamping force it is necessary to wrap
your fingers around the dropout
while closing the quick release lever.
The proper force required to close
the quick release lever should leave
a visible imprint in the palm of your
hand.
It takes
considerable force to securely
clamp the wheel. If you are able to
completely close the quick release
without wrapping your fingers
around the dropout and the quick
release lever does not leave a
visible imprint in the palm of your
hand, the tension is not adequate.
Rotate the lever to the FULLY
OPEN position and turn the
tension adjusting nut a quarter
turn clockwise and repeat the
closing process.
If the quick release lever cannot
be rotated to the FULLY CLOSED
position, rotate the lever to the
FULLY OPEN position and turn the
tension adjusting nut a quarter
turn counterclockwise. Repeat the
closing process.
To LOOSEN tension adjusting nut,
turn counterclockwise.
REMOVING REAR WHEEL
1. Unlock Parking Brake

FRONT WHEEL SECONDARY
RETENTION DEVICES
Your stroller fork utilizes secondary
wheel retention devices designed to
help keep the wheel from
disengaging from the fork if the quick
release is incorrectly adjusted and
tightened. The wheel can still remain
loose and wobbly even with the
secondary retention device working if
the quick release has not been
properly tightened and adjusted. The
secondary retention devices are
backup systems and are not intended
as a substitute for a properly
adjusted quick release. The
secondary retention devices on your
stroller are the integral type that are
formed into the outer faces of the
fork dropouts.
The secondary
retention devices serve as a backup
for a critical adjustment. The
secondary retention devices can
reduce the risk of the wheel
disengaging from the fork if the
quick release is not adjusted and
tightened correctly.
Secondary retention devices are
not a substitute for correct quick
release adjustment and tightening.
Using your stroller with an
improperly adjusted and tightened
wheel quick release can allow
the wheel to vibrate, wobble or
become detached from the stroller.
This can result in serious injury or
death.

it is necessary to wrap your fingers
around the fork blade while closing
the quick release lever. The proper
force required to close the quick
release lever should leave a visible
imprint in the palm of your hand.
It takes
considerable force to securely
clamp the wheel. If you are able to
completely close the quick release
without wrapping your fingers
around the fork blade and the
quick release lever does not leave

ESTABLISH CORRECT FUNCTION
For the hand brake system to work
correctly, it is critical that it be
adjusted properly. With the braking
system properly adjusted, the wheels
should freely rotate when the brake
lever is not engaged. To establish
if the braking system is functioning
correctly:
• Check to see if proper brake
force is applied when the brake
lever is pulled to within 1/2” or
more from the handlebar.
• Check to see if the brake force
is balanced (evenly applied),
between both the right and left
rear wheels.
1. Adjust Brake Force
If correct brake force is not applied
when the brake lever is pulled to
within 1/2” of the handle bar, then
the brake cable will need to be tightened. To tighten the cable, loosen
the lock ring on the brake lever and
turn the barrel adjuster in a counter
clockwise direction. Secure the barrel
adjuster in the new position by tightening the lock ring against the brake
lever body.
Lock Ring
Barrel Adjuster
If the rear wheels do not spin freely
when the brake lever is in the released position, then there is too
much brake force and the brake
cable will need to be loosened. To
loosen the cable, loosen lock ring
and turn the barrel adjuster in a
clockwise direction. Secure the barrel
adjuster by tightening the lock ring
against the brake.
Lock Ring
Barrel Adjuster
Continue these adjustments until
proper braking force is established
on at least one of the rear wheels.
2. Balance Brake Force
Identify the wheel that does not have
enough brake force. Locate the drum
brake barrel adjuster on that side.
Tighten the brake cable (as in step
one), until the brake force is equal to
that of the opposite wheel.
NOTE: Adjustment of the drum
brake barrel adjusters requires a
wrench.
Lock Ring
Barrel Adjuster
NOTE: There are lock rings on all
barrel adjusters to stop them from
changing their position. Always make
sure the lock rings are tightly fastened after making adjustments.
20
OMB15/B
NOTE: Ensure that all brake cable
ends are properly located in the relevant hole of the barrel adjusters.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the gap
between the barrel adjuster and the
lock ring does not exceed 5 mm. If
the gap exceeds 5 mm, there is a risk
that the screw will shear with potential loss of braking function.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Check tire pressure
before every use.
CLEANING
The fabric has a stain resistant
treatment that makes most cleanups
easy. Use a sponge with a solution of
mild soap and cold water (maximum
temperature of 38 deg. C). Rinse
thoroughly with clean water to
remove soap then air dry. Do not use
detergent.
REGULAR INSPECTIONS
We recommend inspecting your
stroller before every use. Verify
tire pressure. Verify all screws,
attachment points and fasteners are
tight. Check all wheels to be sure
they are securely clamped. Check for
tears or excessive wear in the fabric.
STORAGE
It is best to store your stroller indoors
when it is not in use. This will prolong
its attractive appearance. Extended
exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays
can fade and degrade the fabric,
tires, and plastic parts.
CARGO
The stroller is equipped with two
small seat pockets for your child, a
seat back pocket and a low boy cargo
basket under the stroller.
Adding weight to
the seat back changes the center
of gravity of the stroller, and
increases the possibility that it
might tip over backwards, resulting
in injury. For this reason, loads in
the seat back pocket should never
exceed 1 kg and maximum weight
capacity for low boy cargo basket
is 4.5 kgs.
Although the seat back is padded, it
is important to remember that this is
what your child leans against.
Do not place sharp
objects in the seat back pocket.
Leaning against sharp objects in
the seat back pocket can result in
injury to occupant.
