[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 4 year old literally learned to pedal bike in one minute on Christmas morning with the Woom3.  We showed him how to squeeze the hand brakes, adjusted the seat height, and he pushed off...and stayed up.  He had a couple of wobbles in the first minute but was solidly balanced after that (that’s after a couple of years with a Strider bike).  [b]I consider the WOOM a magic bike, seriousl[/b]y.

I don't think it's the WOOM that's magic.....  It would be magic if a kid could learn in one minute after no prior bike experience.  The key is getting your kid really comfortable on a balance bike then transitioning to a bike that fits right and is easy to handle.  Both our kids learned how to ride a pedal bike in less than five minutes after mastering a balance bike.  And we did not get them a WOOM.  Their first pedal bike was from a company called ByK.  Check them out.  They still aren't cheap, but I think a lower price point than WOOM.  [/quote]
