Born in a machine shop in San Luis Obispo, California, BOB has grown from the humble beginnings into a world leader in freedom of getting around. Part of the BOB trailer’s genius was how it attached to the bike: the patented BOB QR attachment system, a revolutionary mechanism that even to this day takes advantage of one simple fact: all bikes have a rear axle. As a result, it has become the world standard for cycle tourists. The next revolutionary BOB innovation - the swiveling front wheel - was introduced in 2005 and became the trademark feature of the new Revolution stroller. No longer would mothers have to tip their strollers backwards to make a sharp turn - or a turn of any kind, for that matter. The Revolution’s rotating front wheel allowed them to maneuver their stroller around tight corners, crowded sidewalks, and narrow aisles with ease. With the wheel locked in place, it could also be used for off-road runs or walks.
