The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest models as only one hand is required to lift the lower and back sections. They're also a bit smaller than side-byside buggies, which makes them an ideal choice for fitting through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is among the lighter models available.
