Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Ultra-Compact Travel Stroller - Pike

Our review of the Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Pike finds it best for parents who prioritize effortless travel and lightweight portability without giving up everyday comfort. Weighing just 14 lb and folding into a compact, auto-locking package with an included carry bag, this stroller is ideal for frequent flyers and urban families who need a stroller that tucks into overhead bins or small trunks. The single biggest reason to buy is its blend of true travel convenience with surprisingly full-size features like a multi-position padded seat and a large UV 50+ canopy.

Key Features

• Ultra-lightweight: At only 14 lb the stroller is easy to lift, carry and fit into tight storage spaces for travel.
• Compact fold: The easy-to-fold design with auto-lock keeps the stroller secure and small enough for overhead bins and compact trunks.
• Comfortable seating: The padded seat reclines to near-flat and includes adjustable calf support to adapt as a child grows.
• Premium materials: Leatherette-covered handlebar and belly bar plus upgraded soft, textured fabrics give a refined look and added comfort.
• Sun protection: The large UV 50+ canopy with extension panel and peekaboo window keeps baby shaded while allowing quick checks.
• Travel-ready extras: Includes a carry bag for protection in transit and can pair with a Baby Jogger infant car seat (sold separately).

Who It's For

The City Tour 2 Pike is aimed at parents who travel often or live in dense urban environments and need a stroller that is genuinely portable and simple to manage alone. It suits caregivers who appreciate a stroller that can be carried onto planes, folded with one hand and stored in small apartments or car trunks without fuss.

Families who want heavy-duty off-road performance or the highest possible load capacity should look elsewhere; the focus here is on travelability and convenience rather than maximum cargo or large-child comfort. Those needing an included infant car seat or extensive all-terrain suspension should consider other models.
