woom ORIGINAL 3 AUTOMAGIC
The superlight, innovative, do-it-all 16″ children's bike with automatic two-speed hub gearing and a wide gear range for kids aged four and up.
Shift as if by magic
Bike-loving children aged between four and six will adore the woom ORIGINAL 3 AUTOMAGIC. As a speed-sensitive two-gear bike, the first gear allows them to ride easier uphill, while the second gear lets them go faster and pedal more comfortably on the flat without spinning out. And the best part of all? It changes up and down automatically – the gear selected is based on the rider’s speed, without requiring any manual shifting. It's magic. AUTOMAGIC!
Please note: This product does not include a bike bell, front light, rear light or wide-angle Z reflectors. If your child plans on cycling on public roads and streets, their bike may need to meet certain standard requirements before it can be considered legal in your country of residence. In many countries, bikes must be equipped with a bike bell, front and rear lights, and reflectors. We strongly suggest checking the legal obligations and guidance for cyclists in your country to make sure that your child's woom bike complies with the relevant road traffic regulations.

Instructions for use
Find more information in our Service & Info area.
Our woom bikes don't come with any additional accessories. You need to add optional extras like kickstands and mudguards on our equipment page.
If your child plans on cycling on public roads and streets, their bike may need to meet certain standard requirements before it can be considered legal in your country of residence. In many countries, bikes must be equipped with a bike bell, front and rear lights, and wide-angle Z reflectors. As rules for cyclists and their equipment vary from country to country, find out about the regulations applicable to riding a woom bike in road traffic in your country or region, particularly regarding the use of lights, reflectors and other obligatory safety equipment.
Automatic two-speed hub gearing
When the rider reaches a speed of around 11 km/h, the hub gearing shifts automatically into the higher gear. This means your child gets the benefit of gears without having to negotiate the complexities of shifting – and you don’t have to worry about extra servicing. The gearing is tucked away inside the hub, making it among the most low-maintenance and hard-wearing out there. Win-win!
Optimized gear ratio
Put simply, gearing refers to how hard your child has to pedal. As this is a two-speed bike, we've been able to set the spread of the gear ratios on the woom ORIGINAL 3 AUTOMAGIC so that the resistance in the first gear is perfect for climbing. With pulling away and riding up hills made easier, it’s time for your child to experience even more fun on their bike!
Innovative frame
The superlight aluminum frame is the heart of the bike, ensuring a fun and safe riding experience. Thanks to its cleverly designed age-specific geometry, this superlight bike makes learning to ride super fun!
Child-specific hand brakes
Your child will immediately be able to spot the all-important rear brake – it's bright green! This color code system prevents them from mixing up the brakes, making for a safer ride. Our specially designed brake lever is easy to pull with small hands and requires little strength to bring the bike to a safe halt. You can also adjust the reach for your child. This, along with the ergonomic grips, makes braking child's play.
Knee-friendly stem
Our stem ensures a safe and lightweight connection between the handlebars and the headset. The sleek, rounded design, integrated handlebar clamp and recessed clamp bolts make it truly knee-friendly.
Flexible steering limiter
Our specially developed steering limiter is a vital safety feature. It prevents the handlebars from overturning, which reduces the risk of accidents.
Cranks with a narrow Q-factor
The crank length and distance between the pedals have been ergonomically adapted to fit children's bodies. This results in an optimum stance and natural movements. Pedaling? A piece of cake!
Maintenance-friendly chainguard
The one-winged chainguard teams a sophisticated and stylish design with a compact and hard-wearing construction. The design keeps your child free from chain oil and chain-related injuries as well as giving you easy access to service the chain thanks to its upper-only form.
Ergonomically formed saddle
The saddle is one of the most important points of contact between the child and the bike. It significantly affects the feeling when riding. That's why our saddle is designed to be a perfect fit for the pelvis of children in this age group and optimized for an upright riding position. Perfect for getting the most out of their ride!
Please note that as we work with various suppliers, the actual saddle on your woom bike may vary slightly from the images shown.
Practical quick-release seatpost clamp
The quick-release seatpost clamp offers a simple, quick and tool-free way to adjust the saddle height. It's even easy enough to be operated by children. On your pedals, get set, go!
All-round capable tires
Tires have a major influence on how a bike handles. That's why we've chosen tires that can be used for a broad variety of terrain for our bikes. Whether your child is riding on tarmac, gravel or dirt, our lightweight tires will ensure maximum grip in any weather and on any surface, whether in a straight line or cornering.
Smartly engineered wheels
A bike needs really good wheels to get rolling. So that's exactly what we've given our bikes. What makes a woom wheel so unique is the sum of its parts: from the smooth-rolling hubs to the high-quality stainless steel spokes and our exclusive SOOPA DOOPA HOOPS rims.
The woom 10-year warranty*
Inspiring children to love riding their bikes is our mission at woom. That's why we guarantee the premium quality of every bike down to the last detail with innovative technology and long-lasting materials. In fact, we're so confident in our quality promise that we're offering to extend our warranty on frames, rigid forks, handlebars, stems and cranks from the usual two years to a full ten years – for free.
We have full confidence in our bikes, which is why we offer a 10-year warranty on the aluminium frames, rigid forks, bars and stem once you've registered online.
