I never felt like I needed the GT. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2491350 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 21:49:36 +0000 Truth Bombs 2491350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HazelEyes: I went through this exact dilemma. Even though I wasn't sure I would run with a double, we do a lot of outdoor activities with the kids where I need a stroller than can handle off road, so I thought I needed a BOB, but I knew I wouldn't want to deal with the massive double BOB at places like the mall or a children's museum. I almost bought two doubles. But then I found the City Mini GT and it is seriously the best of both worlds. Off roads easily, but still small enough to fit through a standard door way. I love it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2491280 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 21:15:59 +0000 matador84 2491280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a gt double and love love love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2491128 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 19:55:53 +0000 Periwinkle 2491128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a GT (single) and we love it!

We have the single GT, and I love the adjustable handle bar (I'm short) and the hand brake, features that the regular city mini doesn't have. I tried to find a double GT on Craigslist without any luck, so we ended up buying a brand new one. The good news is that they are coming out with a new model this year, so many retailers have them on sale right now. According to my local baby store, the only difference in the new version is new colors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2490765 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 16:12:41 +0000 Ree723 2490765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>GT! We have the single version and the double and I love them both! I've tried the regular City Mini and was not a fan of the double wheel at the front - it just doesn't handle as nicely as the GT. It's not that much more to have the GT so unless finances were really tight, I'd definitely go with the GT! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2490739 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 15:56:36 +0000 QBbride 2490739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd definitely get there GT over the regular city mini! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2490684 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 15:28:49 +0000 chopsuey 2490684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the GT double and loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2490677 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 15:26:06 +0000 catlady 2490677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the single version of the city mini before getting the GT. I loved the city mini but upgraded because the wheels were not good enough in the snow, and we live in Boston with a walking commute. The GT has worked out much better in that regard. If you don't need the better wheels, I'd just get the regular one. It is lighter weight and most of the rest of the features are the same. My favorite things about the GT are the wheels and the hand brake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2490673 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 15:23:20 +0000 HazelEyes 2490673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@danda: I have a single bob but am looking for a double stroller--sorry, failed to include that! I LOVE the BOB, but don't see myself paying for a double BOB, nor do I see myself running with the double. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2490667 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 15:20:59 +0000 danda 2490667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You already have a single bob and are adding a single City Mini or GT? We were in that situation and got the City Mini since it is lighter weight than the GT. We figure if we need "rugged" we can use the BOB and if we don't the City Mini is nice and lightweight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-citi-mini-or-citi-mini-gt#post-2490653 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 15:14:19 +0000 HazelEyes 2490653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I"ve asked a few friends with twins and second kids and they seem to all like the Citi Mini for ease and the ability to go through doorways.</p> <p>For J our favorite stroller is the BOB, and honestly we rarely use our UB G-Luxe (though I love it!) mainly because of the smooth ride of the bike tires. I don't know anyone with the GT, but I"m wondering if that makes more sense for us? Although I"m about to go meet someone for a used CM for $180--so do I suck it up, or try and figure out finding a GT? AH! </p>
