[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want one, but I think we need training wheels. My kid was great at the balance bike but she likes to ride soooo sloooowly. I don’t know how to do pedals without training wheels for her. [/quote]

Woom doesn’t come with training wheels and I don’t think its design accommodates training wheels (nowhere to install). I’d actually recommend using Woom, if you truly get one, as a balance bike first by not putting in the pedals and only install the pedals after she seems ready. My DC used balance bike very briefly. When we first got DC Woom as first bike, I didn’t think DC could do it and kept trying to help DC to ride by holding the bike for DC. After one round of unsuccessful attempt, I told DC that my attempted help didn’t work and only seemed to cause imbalance to the bike, so DC had to be on their own either try to pedal or just use it as balance bike. But just then, DC immediately took off riding on their own albeit not very smoothly.

As such, we think Woom is totally worth it for our DC because of how easy it was for DC to pick up biking. But now, DC outgrew the Woom 3, and we are looking into a bigger one. We are also debating whether to get a cheaper one for DC. [/quote]
