I'll work from top to bottom and add photos after. -There is a new click system in the handle bar. This means when you adjust the handlebar it stays where you put it. There are little grooves in the handlebar to stop it slipping. -The canopy, this worried me when i saw the photos. It looks small and not as nice as the bee but in real life it's not small at all. It covers the pram well and i love how it moves up and down with the seat unit. -The seat unit, this has been made wider and a new addition is the height can be adjusted by pul...
