Gearing-up: The safe way for your child to enjoy spring cycling

14/03/2022

Klosterneuburg, 14 March 2022: International bike manufacturer woom not only offers super-safe and superlight bikes for children and teens, but also super cool protective gear, including the popular woom KIDS' Helmet and TENS Bike Gloves. There's a new addition to the woom product portfolio in 2022: the NEEBOWS knee and elbow protectors for young cyclists.

For maximum wild outdoor adventure with maximum protection, the international children's and teens' bike manufacturer woom has just the right protective gear in its product range: the snug-fitting, award-winning woom KIDS' Helmet with its innovative features is one such item. It offers children reliable protection from head injuries. Helmets are even a legal requirement in many states, like California, where children are required to wear one up to the age of 18.

Bike gloves are also an important part of protective gear. After all, it's the hands that usually hit the ground first. The TENS Bike Gloves by woom not only protect a child's sensitive skin from more serious injury in a fall, but they also ensure a good grip on the bars and brakes.


NEW addition to the portfolio: The NEEBOWS Knee and Elbow Pad Sets by woom

Kids love two-wheeled adventures. But scratches and scrapes can't always be avoided, which is why it's important to keep exposed skin well protected. The new protectors by woom, the NEEBOWS Knee Pad Set and the NEEBOWS Elbow Pad Set, protect knees and elbows so that young riders return home from their voyages of discovery in one piece.

These knee and elbow pads, which are as comfortable as they are robust, come in pairs in three sizes and offer young bikers an optimal fit and the full range of mobility while cycling: the super light, stretchable and flexible upper material (70% polyester, 10% spandex, 20% nylon) perfectly fits the individual contours of the joints and are child's play to get on and off. No more mix-ups: their universal design means that kids can wear the pads on either the left or right knee or elbow, eliminating any possible mix-ups. What's more, the breathable fabric provides good air circulation and comfort, even on long rides.

The silicone strips on the top and bottom cuffs, along with the silicone print on the inside, ensure that the pads stay put even when your child is riding over bumpy terrain. The pads (made from 100% PU) have a lovely, soft feel during the ride but they harden immediately on impact, cushioning the blow and protecting your child's precious knees and elbows from scrapes and bruises.

The woom mission: to inspire a love of bike riding in children and with the right gear enable experiences in nature they'll cherish for a lifetime. With the woom protective gear, nothing stands in the way of safe and boundless riding adventure. The perfect alternative to a gaming console or phone!
All of the woom accessories are available in the woom online shop and at selected dealers.
