Bobtail Turns Strollers into Scooters

So you’re pushing your rugrat in a stroller and you wish you could make it more fun. Well, maybe you can. Bobtail converts strollers into a scooter in just a few seconds. You just attach it to the rear of the stroller and skate instead of walking while strolling.

This should make things a bit more entertaining when you are out pushing your kid around. It adds a tubular steel frame, a wooden deck and a solid rubber (rear) tire to your stroller. You just clip it to the horizontal rod at the rear of your stroller, and you’re all set. You can control the speed with a friction fender brake and it will carry up to 250 lbs of weight.

Right now it is only compatible with BOB strollers, but they could make it for other models if this one is a success on Kickstarter. Get one for a pledge starting at $179(USD). The retail price will be around $250-260(USD).
