    Hi all,

    Has anyone purchased a 16” woom 3? Would love some feedback on it. Need to purchase a bike for soon to be 5 year old but hoping to pass it along to 2 more babógs coming up the line!

    She is using a Cruzee balance bike at the moment so obviously looking for something nice and light. Thought the Woom 3 looked great although not sure I’ll be able to get my hands on one any time soon...

    after reviewing the bikes available, and with help from this thread i purchased the woom 4 for my soon to be 6 yr old. Components wise, quality wise, weight wise, it looks to be up there, and the feedback from a forum user and reviews online were very positive. I ordered it last week, and expect it in August....

    Yeah saw that with the woom, I’m going to look at a frog in cork in the morning but they are very limited re colours. They look lovely so hoping it works out.
    Thanks again,
    G

    Picked up the frog 48 today, really happy with it, gorgeous little bike. My daughter was cycling it on her own in about 2 minutes, having been used to a balance bike was obviously a great help! I thought it was a little heavier than I was expecting when I picked it up but it didn’t seem to be a bother for her. Hope your little one enjoys theirs as much!
    Thanks!
