However, if the shoulder strap is short enough, I may be able to hang the bike over the handles and the bike not touch the ground. So that may be an option
I think the counterweight with your little one might imbalance the pram. Even taking your hands off for a split second.. be very careful here please!
I have no idea on SC prams but those days are behind me...
As for commuting gear - decathlon is your friend but if you have full cleats on why not full kit w? Be that guy at the nursery pick up.
Continental Contact urban is the forum approved tyre (he says without authority); and yes available in tan-wall.

Thanks for this and other responses.
I do have a Zen, but the nursery buggy is different (Silver Cross - which is actually a lot better in most ways imo, but that’s for another thread). A key weakness of the SC, though, is that it can only be pushed two handed, unlike the Zen. So navigating the walk with the bike unfolded is out.

I do think I will probably just not do this under any circumstance and just go home first, for the sake of an extra ten minutes, but still thanks for the discussion to help my reasoning!
I’m decided on the C-Line with low bars, and am going to get the front bag and some tan walls and spare inners. Deliberating on whether to also get the Brooks all weather saddle, but think I’ll likely stick an Arione or Flite on there. Will be running Atac pedals.
Keen to get some ‘commuting’ gear, rather than be fully lycra’d. Is there go-to non-cycling specific stuff worth checking out? M&S, Uniqlo etc?
