    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,

    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!
