Despite being extremely robust, the wheels of the YOYO stroller are not indestructible.
As they are always in contact with other rigid elements, they can wear out over time and, in the case of a significant impact, fracture.
Personally, I have never had to change any of the wheels on my two YOYOs despite numerous travels, daily strolls, and a few bumps 😉 #thankyouvenicebridges
When Should You Replace the Wheels of a YOYO Babyzen Stroller ?
It’s recommended to replace your YOYO stroller wheel immediately if it’s broken, stuck, squeaky, or even warped.
A defective wheel can lead to the stroller becoming immobile and pose a risk to its maneuverability and stability, which could potentially endanger your baby.
Roll stress-free and spare yourself any unnecessary worry.
Moreover, changing a wheel on your YOYO is simple and quick, as always with the YOYO brand.
You might come across negative reviews regarding changing YOYO stroller wheels, but they are often due to improper maintenance of the stroller.
How to Change a YOYO Babyzen Stroller Wheel ?
If your YOYO stroller is in good condition, you can change a defective wheel in just 2 minutes.
Here are the steps:
- Remove the white cap from the wheel using a screwdriver (similar to removing a hubcap on a car).
- Use the Allen key to unscrew the wheel.
- Remove the screw and the entire worn-out wheel.
- Install the new wheel by following the reverse steps of the above three.
Here’s a helpful video demonstrating how to change a YOYO wheel.
How Many Wheels Come in the YOYO Wheel Pack ?
The YOYO wheel pack contains 4 wheels, allowing you to replace all the wheels on the YOYO stroller at once, including those on the YOYO Connect double stroller.
It also includes all the necessary components for replacing any of the wheels:
- Screws
- Plastic bearings
- Axles for the front wheels
However, the biggest drawback of this pack is the absence of axles for the rear wheels if they need replacement.
These can be found separately on external sites for 7€ each.
Can You Replace Both Front and Rear Wheels with a Single YOYO Wheel Pack ?
Yes, all the wheels on the YOYO stroller are the same, whether at the front or rear. That’s why the Babyzen brand provides 4 wheels in its pack, enabling you to replace both the front and rear wheels.
🚨Be careful with the wheel models following the switch to the YOYO 3. The wheels on the YOYO 3 stroller are not compatible with YOYO 2 models, and conversely the wheels on the YOYO 2 are not compatible with the YOYO 3.🚨
If you buy new YOYO wheels from August 2024, they are only compatible models for the YOYO 3 from Stokke.
Can You Replace the YOYO Connect Wheels with the YOYO Wheel Pack ?
Yes, with a YOYO wheel pack, you can replace the wheels of both your YOYO Connect and your standard YOYO with 4 wheels.
