The UPPAbaby Ridge V2 stroller is built for active Canadian families who never stop moving.
The UPPAbaby Ridge V2 stroller delivers a patented two-stage suspension system, never-flat foam-filled EVA tires measuring 12" front and 16" rear, and a swivel-locking front wheel that transitions from everyday maneuvering to locked jogging mode. The disc hand brake, wrist strap, adjustable handlebar, one-hand fold, GREENGUARD Gold certification, and premium leather accents make it a complete all-terrain investment for active Canadian families.
Foam-filled EVA tires cannot deflate in sub-zero temperatures, unlike air-filled competitors that lose pressure in the cold. The two-stage suspension handles packed snow and ice ridges, while the locked front wheel and disc hand brake provide confident control on winter paths. Reflective trim on the frame and wheels improves low-light visibility during short Canadian winter days.
The Ridge V2 seat is designed for the long haul. It supports children from 3 months through 55 lbs, covering most children well into their preschool years. That weight capacity sits higher than many jogging strollers in the category, meaning the Ridge V2 is an investment that grows with your family rather than a stroller you outgrow in two years.
The deep padded seat includes lumbar support and an infinite recline that switches from a fully upright sightseeing position to a nearly flat napping angle. The 5-point no-rethread adjustable harness adjusts at the shoulder and chest as the child grows, without requiring any rethreading of the fabric.
One of the meaningful upgrades from the Ridge V1 is the enhanced side-panel ventilation. The V2 seat runs noticeably cooler on warm-weather outings, with adjustable ventilation panels that can be opened or closed depending on conditions.
The UPF 50+ extendable canopy includes a mesh peekaboo window, zip-out mesh ventilation panels, and a zippered pocket for small essentials. An adjustable leg rest with three positions accommodates different child sizes as they grow through the seat's weight range.
The Ridge V2 seat is suitable from 3 months for walking use, but many families want to use it as their primary stroller from the very beginning. The Ridge V2 supports from-birth use through two routes: an infant car seat via the Ridge Adapter, or the UPPAbaby Bassinet via the Ridge Bassinet adapter.
The UPPAbaby MESA, MESA Max, and Aria infant car seats attach to the Ridge V2 frame using the Ridge Adapter, which is sold separately. These adapters are specific to the Ridge V2. Cruz V3, Vista V3, and Minu V3 adapters are not interchangeable. Confirm the correct adapter SKU at time of purchase.
The UPPAbaby Bassinet attaches to the Ridge V2 using the Ridge Bassinet adapter, allowing lie-flat newborn use from birth for walks. Both the Bassinet and adapter are sold separately. Once the child has strong unsupported head control, typically around 3 months, the Ridge seat can be used directly.
With the Ridge Adapter, the infant car seat mounts directly onto the Ridge V2 frame for a streamlined travel system setup. Kido Bébé staff can confirm the correct adapter for your existing car seat brand at time of purchase.
This is the question every new parent asks before committing to a jogging stroller. The short version: you can walk with the Ridge V2 from 3 months using the stroller seat, and from birth using the infant car seat or Bassinet attachment. Jogging is a different conversation.
Jogging introduces additional vibration and impact force that requires strong, independent neck and head control. Most pediatric guidance recommends waiting until approximately 9 months, when the child can sit unsupported. This applies to every jogging stroller on the market. Always consult your pediatrician before beginning a jogging routine.
When you are ready to run, the swivel-locking front wheel must be locked in jogging mode at all times. The visual indicator on the wheel confirms the lock is engaged before you start moving. The disc hand brake is required for safe jogging on any incline. The wrist strap on the handlebar should be used during all jogging sessions.
The Ridge V2 comes with a storage system and accessory ecosystem designed around active use. The storage basket holds up to 20 lbs and features a full easy-access opening with integrated zippered side pockets. A direct-attach water bottle holder is included on the frame.
The included basket cover protects basket contents from rain, snow, and trail debris. The basket cover is a standout feature not typically bundled with competing jogging strollers. The Rain Shield is included with the Ridge V2 and is recommended for Canadian families year-round. A Bumper Bar, Cup Holder, and weather accessories are available separately through Kido Bébé.
The Cup Holder attaches near the handlebar and adds a second drink option beyond the built-in water bottle holder. The PiggyBack Ride-Along Board supports an older sibling or toddler up to 55 lbs and is sold separately.
Accessories included at purchase are the rain shield, basket cover, and water bottle holder. Confirm the current included accessory list with Kido Bébé at time of purchase, as this may vary by retailer and model year.
If you are deciding between a new Ridge V2 and a used or discounted Ridge V1, the comparison comes down to a small number of genuine improvements rather than a complete redesign. The core Ridge DNA is unchanged: the same patented two-stage suspension, the same never-flat foam-filled tires, the same disc hand brake, and the same 55 lb seat capacity. The V2 is a refinement.
The most practical V2 addition is the expanded handlebar, which now offers five positions compared to four on the V1, including a new lower setting that accommodates a wider range of adult heights during extended jogging. The enhanced side-panel ventilation makes warm-weather runs noticeably more comfortable for the child compared to the V1 seat.
The one-hand fold mechanism was refined on the V2 for smoother single-handed operation. Reflective accents were added to the V2 frame and wheels, a safety upgrade the V1 lacked. For parents who run in low-light conditions during Canadian winters, this is a genuine functional improvement.

Yes. The Ridge V2 is designed for both jogging and everyday walking use. In unlocked mode, the swivel front wheel provides easy maneuverability for grocery runs, city sidewalks, and daily errands. Its three-wheel design and larger tires handle uneven surfaces, curbs, and packed snow better than most standard four-wheel strollers. Many Canadian parents use the Ridge V2 as their sole stroller for active daily life, pairing it with the compact UPPAbaby Minu V3 for travel when a smaller fold is needed.
