I have a Phil and Ted Sport and have found that my tyres are ALWAYS flat..
Has anyone else experienced this..?? It's so difficult to manouver.. It's more so when there are the two kids in there. DD who is 2.5yrs weighs about 12-13 kgs and DS who is 1.5yrs weighs about 12 kgs.. Am wondering if they are too heavy for it but surely these prams can handle that weight - we're not talking 60kg here.. Am I better to look at replacing these wheels..?? Would appreciate any advice and if this is the norm.. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

How old's the buggy? I'd try to contact the store you got it from or P&T directly though the website. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

We had a problem with our Phil and ted sports double buggy front wheel. It got a dent in it so we went online and bought a new wheel online ($100) ... It took two weeks to arrive and then didn't fit despite it saying it was for our particular buggy. I wrote to them and complained and a week later got a reply, asking me to measure it and 5 days later am still waiting... I am not impressed with them at all.
However, they do sell new inner tubes (I think about $19) on their website and have free delivery. I hope you have more luck than us. I am wishing we had never bought a Phil and Ted's -------------

you can get stuff to put into to the tyres to make them solid tyres. I have thought about doing this myself but haven't done it yet so can't say how well it works. ------------- http://lilypie.com">
