I have a two year old who loves her Woom 1 but I'm really struggling to help her understand how to use the brake when riding. She is proficient in ASL but still developing speach. Highly active, any tips that could help her move to the brake from the feet would be deeply appreciated.
Looks good on video to trash stabilizers but children are different when it comes to leg coordination and balance. Turns out that the decision to make woom bikes totally incompatible with stabilizers made the bike useless for my kids for more than one year. Please give the costumer the choice next time. When we are passionate about something its really easy to become blinded trying to evangelize what you feel is best and disregard diversity

@thiagobartolo, I think you are missing the purpose of the balance bike. If you give your kid training wheels/stabilizers then you are making it a lot harder for them to learn to ride without them. The entire point of this is so they go from balancing with no pedals to balancing on a regular bike with pedals quickly and at a younger age than they would otherwise. The kid I bought it for couldn't figure out how to use it so we waited a year and are trying again. I'd rather wait than make it harder for them to learn a 2 wheeler with pedals.
@@Chackagoola well lets just subtract years of fun from kids using trainer wheels because they are bad. And the church of no training wheels gets stronger everyday. All the bike enthusiast geared media has bought this idea, but for some kids the optimum is the enemy of good. Shure one can try but insist in it if it doesn’t work in a reasonable timeframe is bonkers. The bike rear triangle being completely incompatible with training wheels is stubborn and stupid. Let people be free to choose, and let kids enjoy their bikes as they can as early as they can, doesn’t seem much to ask.
@@thiagobartoloThe point is that it shouldn't be years because it enables kids to learn to ride a two wheeler faster. It's supposed to replace the time that training wheels would be used. If you don't like the idea of a balance bike then there are a ton of other models out there that allow training wheels.

Hi @PaulaSkinner! Find here our bikes woom.com/en_INT/
Our hang up is with the mount and dismount. Kiddo has dropped the bike on her shins one too many times. Is now afraid of it.
