The Pivot Troop offers versatile seating options for your child:

• Infant Car Seat Mode: The LiteMax™ Infant Car Seat can be installed facing the parent or facing forward. Ensure the car seat clicks securely into the stroller frame.

Pet Basket Usage

The oversized, dividable basket is designed for pet transport and additional storage:

• Pet Entry/Exit: Lower the integrated ramp to allow pets up to 35 lb to easily enter or exit the basket.
• Dividable Storage: The basket features a divider. Use it to create a separate space for a pet (up to 35 lb) and an additional 10 lb of essentials.
• Maximized Storage: For maximum storage capacity (up to 45 lb total), roll down the basket divider to create one large compartment for items like diaper bags or shopping bags.
• Pet Safety: An internal D-ring is provided for attaching your own pet tether (maximum 24 inches in length) to secure your pet and prevent them from falling or sliding out. The zippered mesh top helps contain eager pets.
