woom Bikes vs. The Competition
woom Bikes | Other Kids’ Bikes |
| ✅ Ultra-lightweight (¼ - ⅓ of the child’s body weight) | ❌ Clunky and heavy: often weighing ~½ or more of the child’s weight |
| ✅ Child-specific components and kid-friendly design increase comfort | ❌ “Shrunken down” adult bike components are uncomfortable; make learning to ride harder |
| ✅ Brake levers adapted to accommodate a child’s hand reach and grip strength | ❌ Brake levers are difficult for kids to actuate |
| ✅ Smallest models (woom 1-3) equipped with Steering Limiter to prevent overturning | ❌ Kids riding bikes with no steering assistance are far more accident-prone |
| ✅ 10-year warranty on bike frames, rigid forks, handlebars, and stem | ❌ 1-year warranty on component defects |
| ✅ High resale value after years of use | ❌ Non-existent secondary market |
| ✅ Ergonomic contact points (handlebars, grips, saddle) ensure stability | ❌ Contact points not optimized for children |
| ✅ Single-speed bikes (woom 2, woom 3) come with dual, color-coded brake levers to help kids learn front/rear brakes | ❌ Other 14” and 16” kids bikes have a single brake lever, which doesn’t teach kids best braking practices |
It’s All In the Details
Sure, we make the lightest kids’ bikes in the world. But leading the kids’ bike industry is about more than just making the lightest bikes. It’s about meticulously researching and optimizing every component for children – and eliminating everything that made clunky traditional kids’ bikes annoying. Ultimately, it’s giving your child the opportunity to truly fall in love with cycling. And that’s something we believe is priceless.
Ultra-Lightweight Frames
The lighter the bike, the easier to ride. The easier to ride, the more they’ll love it! On average, our bikes weigh only a quarter of your child, making them effortless to handle and easy to learn. You’ll thank us later when you end up carrying it home.
Child-Specific Ergonomics
We focus strictly on making high-quality bikes for kids. Our components have been meticulously developed exclusively for children, and our frame geometry is optimized for stability. You’ve been warned: an increased sense of confidence will come along for the ride!
Safety-Focused Design
With safety features like the Steering Limiter, color-coded brakes, and reach-adjustable brake levers, our smallest models make bike education intuitive and fun. Rest assured, your child is in good handlebars.
Engineered for Joy
It’s all in the details. A narrow bottom bracket means more comfortable pedaling for kids. Ergonomic grips and saddle provide relief on long rides. Adjustable features like our Vario stem help to accommodate growth spurts. With no bothersome distractions, there’s more time for fun!
High Resale Value
Let’s face it; kids’ bikes have a shelf life. Your child will only be able to ride any particular model for a few years before they’re ready to size up. When you’re ready to part ways with your woom bike, you’ll be pleased to find out they typically resell for 75% or more of what you initially paid, given their incredible durability and lasting quality. Or alternatively, they make great hand-me-downs!
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. We have full confidence in our bikes, which is why we offer a 10-year warranty on the aluminum frame, rigid fork, handlebars, and stem once you've registered online. Learn more here.
