ok so I was pretty set on the b-agile double... I love my city mini and it's the closest I can get, seeing as we need to click a carseat in.
however..the b-ready at BRU, plus a lower carseat adapter and a second seat..come to the same cost as the b-agile double.
for those that have used the b-ready as a DOUBLE with the lower seat, and/or the britax b-agile double...
pros/cons on either?

I'm actually already talking myself out of the b-ready. I prefer the almost-flat recline of the b-agile!

I think you should test drive and decide whether you like the tandem style or the double across style. Personally, I have the b-ready and I can not imagine trying to navigate a wider stroller than that. I also prefer my b-ready to our b-agile because I can face DS towards us as long as he wants. We switched him out of the bucket seat early because he HATED it, so if we use the agile he has to face forward, which makes him feel like he's alone and he freaks out.

@sorrycharlie: Also, I don't know that you need both the lower car seat adapter AND the lower second seat. We just picked the lower seat.

I don't own either, so take this with a grain of salt. Between those two, I'd go with the b-agile double. O is still so young and the rumble seat on the b-ready doesn't look all that comfy and it'll be a long time before she's not riding in the stroller. And I know you can technically have the infant carrier in the bottom position on the b-ready but I'm not sure how comfortable I'd feel with that.

I LOVE our b agile double! It's built to fit through any exterior door (i.e., your front door or store doors) since they're a minimum width to follow code. It's very easy to push around and maneuver to me, especially after using the snap n go double stroller. That thing was like a bus.

@T.H.O.U.: I definitely want to be able to click the car seat in in January - I don't want to have to take a newborn out it's warm seat in the car in the winter 
@ShootingStar: I would love to test drive, but I am 45 min from BBB, where the closest b agile double is 
Does BRU have the b ready in store?

@lawbee11: I'm definitely leaning toward that one. She will happily cruise around in the city mini, she doesn't fight to walk at all!
@sunshineandsushi: yay so glad to hear! I don't mind the width - I test drove a contours optima and it was so long!!

@sorrycharlie: You can still click in a car seat on the top without the lower adapter and then use the lower second seat for the other child. Then when they are older, use both seats.

I got the B-Agile because I thought it was the one where you can add the second seat, and now I'm really pissy that I can't.
But, I do love my B-Agile. Just trying to figure out what to do with two kids now! 
ETA: Nevermind, you were asking about B-Agile double. Need more coffee... Don't get annoyed by my useless comment

@sorrycharlie: I originally went with the single b-agile over the b-ready because the b-ready was so heavy. I have not tried out the b-agile double in person, but the b-agile double is 28 lbs and the b-ready is 26 lbs (but that is without the second seat attached) on britax's website.

@swurlygurl: lol! can you sell your single on a local moms group, and buy the double?
@Radish: yea, I've never seen a b agile double in person (well maybe at the zoo or mall!) but I have used a city mini double and loved it! they are very similar.

@sorrycharlie: I have the B-Ready and I 
it, but I live in the city and have no place to put a side-by-side. The reason I bought the B-Ready (over a different tandem) is because you can put the baby on the bottom - the second seat is good from birth, but mostly I liked that you can put a car seat on the bottom. There is no way DD (toddler) would sit on the bottom with a baby on top, so this is key.
HOWEVER, if I lived in the burbs and had storage space, I would absolutely get a side by side.
