Our Review of the Schwinn Free Runner ST 2 double stroller
The Schwinn Free Runner ST 2 double jogger is a mid-range model in Schwinn's growing line of affordable strollers for walking and jogging. The Free Runner ST 2 is built on the same durably designed frame as the Schwinn Free Runner Double, but with one major exception: the frame of the Free Runner ST 2 is made of steel, rather than aluminum. Though equipped with aluminum wheel hubs, the steel frame increases the stroller's weight and may show signs of rust after extended use.

Is It for you?
Best for: Exercise fanatics and other active parents of 2 who are on a budget, and in need of a reliable stroller for running, jogging, and everyday use.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
The Schwinn Free Runner ST double rides on three 16" wheels - the ideal configuration for a jogging stroller. This double jogger is a good option for fitness minded moms and dads looking for a durable yet affordable double jogging stroller with a total weight capacity of 100 lbs. For you, there is a large parent tray included to hold your drinks, valuables, and personal items while you take-in a mile or five.
Convenience
Equipped with a parent tray and a convenient one-handed fold, the Free Runner ST 2 is a pleasure to push and extra easy to fold up and store. The storage basket beneath the seat is extra large, providing enough room for diaper bags, a picnic lunch, even some groceries. The ST 2 is a solid choice for anyone in need of a double jogging stroller that won't empty their pocketbook.
Pushability
The adjustable height handle allows caretakers of different heights to push this double jogger comfortably. The 16" fixed wheels and suspension of the Free Runner ST Double create one easy pushing jogger. If you'd like an all terrain stroller with a swivel wheel, check out the Schwinn Free Wheeler AL.
WHY THE KIDS WILL LOVE IT
The Free Runner ST Double jogger has two well-padded seats with individually adjustable recline settings, so each rider can kick back their own way. It also has an adjustable handlebar for parents or caretakers of different heights and a handbrake for added control, as well as a suspension system built into the rear wheels to smooth out the ride.
Comfort
Riding on 16" wheels, a secure padded seat and rear shocks, the Free Runner ST Double provides a very nice ride for both riders. Schwinn made a number of changes to its strollers recently, adding seats that are more comfortable, larger sun canopies with a drop down tinted visor, and making the storage basket even bigger.
Safety
- Adjustable 5-point harnesses for each seat
- Hand brake
- Parking brake
- Wrist tether
COMPARISON
In the world of jogging strollers, Schwinn is in the mid-range as far as price and quality. There are noticeable differences in the features, construction, and performance offered by more elite brands like BOB or Baby Jogger, but Schwinn has taken steps in recent years to make their offerings a bit more competitive.

Comments from The Staff:
We appreciate your feedback. Here's what the manufactuer had to say: As a parent, I truly understand your concern for child?s comfort. However, we feel confident that this product, though designed slightly different than others, is very competitive in the space and roominess offered, among all brands of jogging strollers, even those at much higher retail prices. We do however value your feedback and will take your comments to heart. I hope you return to the Schwinn brand in the future.
