Now that it is finally warm out, I'm interested in getting a Bob Revolution stroller for running with my ten-month old. However, I am concerned the handlebar is too high. I know the new Revolution Flex stroller offers an adjustable handlebar, but I can't find any used ones (probably because it is so new).
Have any other shorties like me (5'2") run with the Bob Revolution? Does the handlebar seem too high? TIA!

Im 5' 1" pushing 5' 2" and I have a bob and before I got pregnant was jogging with it. Didnt bother me on the height. I love my bob

I have the revolution and I'm 5'1. It's a little high and my shoulders do ache after longer runs, but not enough to deter me - I just switch arms a lot. I think if you will be doing longer, more frequent training runs it may be worth it to have the adjustable handlebar so you maintain good form.

I'm 5'2 and we have the Bob Ironman one. The weight of child + stroller bothers me significantly more than the handle height (which doesn't at all...).

Thanks for the feedback! It sounds like I should find one to try out before I buy my own.

I have a BOB and am 5'3" and the handle is, I guess, a little high. I never really thought about it, and it definitely didn't bother me though!
