update: Woom has a recall/fix for handlebars/stems for select models. Apparently the one-bolt stems weren't clamping strong enough. Neither of the bikes in this video are affected, but here's the info I found:
The affected bikes were sold between 2018 and 2021.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission said the stems on the affected bikes have one silver bolt to clamp onto the steerer tube. That bolt, if it becomes loose, can cause the handlebar assembly to come apart.
The bikes were sold in six versions, in various colors. All of the bikes have the word "woom" in white letters on the sides of the frame, and the word is also visible in metalic letters on the front of the bikes.
woom 1
woom 1 Plus
woom 2
woom 3
woom 4
woom 5
woom 6
The company urged buyers to stop allowing children to use the bikes and to contact them for a free repair kit
I loved this! My daughter is now 28 and lives in Melbourne Australia 8k miles from me and I watched this video with a huge smile on my face and tears falling from my eyes. Thank you for starting my Friday off awesome and enjoy every second with your beautiful daughter!!
Steve, this was awesome to watch. Little Dusty is awesome. "You silly Dady. You make good jokes." I love it, I wish they had Woom bikes when my kids were little.
Right, i literally only remember tricycle, then power wheels then 18in and 20in bmx bikes lol then was the 26 all terrain bikes
Thanks Rob, this was a great day to remember.
Absolutely adorable!!💯💯
our two kids love their Woom 3!
She was the perfect assistant. I went the Cleary route and she so much that getting a quality bike makes such a difference for the kids experience
I smiled the whole way through this
I recently bought a secondhand orbea mx24 dirt for $50 for my 6 year old. It was in a pretty worn state so I stripped it down to the bare frame, got about $300 in parts (wheels, tyres, ms acolyte, rim brakes and levers, cables) and build it back up. I would love to give it a new paint job but right now it's already a fantastic bike. For the money I could have just bought a brand new one but the bike tinkering was absolutely worth it!
"I do love bikes, silly!" Oh, my heart
The bike shop where I worked at sold wooms. Took me 15 minutes to set them up out of the box and I see them on every corner in the city. Awesome that they exist.
Looking forward to her review video of this bike
My son got the balance part figured out, but not the pedalling. I saw someone post on IG using some 2X4s to make a stand to support the bike from the bottom bracket. Then a parent holds the handlebars while the kid rode the bike like a stationary bike. It worked great for my 4 year old. He rode as a stationary bike for a few minutes and got comfortable with pedalling. A few minutes later, he started riding on his own!
Great idea!
Def good idea,
I was trying to get her to figure out brakes before i added pedals.. but def gonna do this
Loved this video. Just got my youngest grandson his first push bike. It’s the same color as my Mtb. Orange and black.
Thanks for sharing
That bike is super rad! It is about time kids bikes are receiving some thought and engineering .
So awesome 👍🏼 we just got our daughter a pink Norco Coaster, she loves it!
Can't believe how big she has gotten. I can still remember when your wife was still pregnant and shuttled a group of us up in AF Canyon. Cute when she names parts of the bike.
That is just the best video ever ! Watching little Dusty say she loved everything about the bike is a parents dream . Brought back so many memories of my sons first bike. Thanks for sharing!! ❤
What a great moment for you. I started Both my kids very little to ride. It is such a wonderful way to spend time with the family. My kids are 21 and 18 and we still ride together and most of our vacations are planned around bike routes.
You're daughter is so cute. I have 5 boys all are now past this stage. Enjoy, it's going so quick!
Adorable, made my day!
Nothing better than kid jokes. As a father myself I've heard some doozies. She is adorable!! My 8 year old son is on a Cannondale cujo 24 and my 5 year old daughter is on a Specialized rip rock 16. Both aluminum and extremely light. The Cujo 24+ is a bad a$$ little bike.
"why did the starfish go onto land?" ......"because he wanted to ride a bike" - hahahah
Great video, thank you for sharing your experience and family. Woom bikes are really impressive. My child was lucky to get awesome hand-me-downs but if I was to recommend a 16” pedal bike, it would be a Woom.
Sweet little bike!
Our oldest is autistic, and it took us a long time to teach him to ride -he still doesn't use brakes or gears.
One trick we used to teach him to pedal was to zip tie the cassette to the spokes so it was a fixie, then strapped his shoes to the pedals.
While supporting him (not free pedalling, that would have gone poorly!) we rolled him around a park so that he would figure out that forward motion made his feet go 'round.
We only had to do this a couple of times for 10 minutes or so before he got the hang of pedalling.
Now that he is 18 we still ride with him, and he loves to pedal hard!
Still not braking, so I attach a paddle board leach from his seat to my stem
Still not shifting, so I got him Axis GX derailleur and keep it on my bars. Range seems to be about 50ft!
We'll do a 14km singletrack loop in an hour, which is a pretty good pace!
sheeeeee's so cute!
Best video yet! (I am a bit biased because I have two daughters, but they're college age now.) I taught my girls by using a bent metal tube inserted above the seatstay bridge down to the BB, then zipped tied it to the backside of the seat tube. This kept me from having to bend over while walking along side, I just held onto the top of the tube and could let go or grab w/o them even noticing.
A kids first pedal bike is a fun time. Now you can shred together
Your family is so precious!! ❤
Ooof...my heart! As a dad, this just hits differently. Congrats on graduating to a pedal bike!
Little dusty is a star!
That hub sounds so much louder then my adult bike thats insane and your kid is super cute
Woom bikes are awesome. And, yes, the bell is very important.
Brilliant! I just recently purchased a 16" woom in red for my 4 year old son. Great little bike. Prior to this he was riding a red Hornit Hero - ultralight machine!
She'll be able to ride his bike in a few months. Kids grow so quick man.
I loved this. I took my fur child out into the garage , so we could build a bike.(dont have a kid). She just licked her paws. Congrats. love your channel.
Love it Steve! You are a rad dad!
I LOVE being a dad. I have the best daughter ever.
Ooooh, Steve, my man, this one had me smiling the whole time from start to finish. Kids really are the meaning of life. She's such an adorable little honey 😄 I don't have a daughter but I have a son that turns 18 in mid November. Man, those years since he was your daughters age just flew by. He was 3 1/2 when one day he saw a bunch of 10-year-olds ride by our house and he pointed at them saying to my wife (unfortunately I was working my afternoon shift that week) "I wanna ride like them"! So my wife undid the support wheels (I don't know the English term) and what do you know - he kracked the code in no-time and in less than half an hour later he was riding just like those 10-year-olds 🥰 Kids - masters of learning new skills 😍
Awesome bike little dusty ! ❤
LOL I loved seeing this! My first two wheeler was a yellow '74 Schwinn Pixie...33 lbs! It's cool to see how far things have come even with kid's bikes. I really wish more people would buy their kids quality bikes and a high volume second handmarket established. It sucks to see like an 8 y.o with a dropped chain pushing their bike home.
She is gonna get rowdy on that thing! Adorable.
She's going mini bike packing with Dad!! I love this!
This is so raw and timeless
Lil Dusty is cute. She reminds me of my daughter who’s 4 y/o. Gotta love this age. They’re so fun and lovable.
Fantastic stuff,Steve!
My son will be 4yo in October,and he is going the same path as your daughter,stepping up from a 12" Vitus Smoothie balance bike to a Specialized Jett 16".
He loves bikes, it's the best thing ever, can't wait to ride singletrack with him!
All the best!
Great job dad. And dad jokes are the best.
Great video. My twin boys have been riding Woom's ever since they were 18 months old. Such a great company, outstanding products.
She just upstaged yah! My daughter is about the same age, so much fun.
So genuine great interaction between you two!!! Informative and fun video to watch!!!
Awesome man! I'll always remember when my 1st son finally got it. That moment was surreal!! He's 5 and faster than me now :D
Sold! Going to buy this for my 3, going on 4 year old.
Too cute!
What a Star! Little Dusty the scene stealer!
Adorable 🎉 🚲 🚴♀️ 🚵♀️
My daughter isnt quite there yet.
Still uses the 12in strider for single track and her 14in littlebig bike (still in small mode) for street/rail trails. Though trying to phase out the strider. I see a used woom 3 on market place, msy pick up for her for next year
She is so precious! My 7YO son is now rocking a 24" 10-speed mountain bike and riding blue and black trails in the CO Front Range! He likes to session obstacles until he makes it thanks to one of your videos! They grow up and learn so fast!
Saw your fundraiser for Operation Underground Railroad. Thanks for helping to bring attention to this issue! We've got to bring this to an end!!! I just saw the trailer for "The Sound of Freedom". Super scary and heartbreaking stuff... Hard to believe that this could be happening. Jordan Peterson had a good interview with the former border patrol agent the movie is based on and the actor that plays him.
What an excellent video!
Love this!
The best video ever! Loved the part about the fork! Pretty soon Dusty will start asking how suspension internals work :)
Great video!
absolutely adorable!
awesome...nice work
Your an amazing Dad
Thank you, I'm always working to get better. Being a dad is my favorite part about life. My daughter is incredible.
Best video ever. Let's see some Dusty shredding!!
green brake/black brake is actually a brilliant idea
Hey hey!! Two days ago, I just picked up my boy's woom 1 replacement, a secondhand WOOM 2! What timing! He just turned for 4, and is probably better sized for a woom 3, but he's timid, and figured the 2 would be easier for him to transition to pedals.
Love these Woom kids bike
Is your daughter a natural on two wheels, or do you have any training strategies for pedals?
Nice Shaka flannel
Whats the head angle and can I put 3.0 tyres on it?
:)
No coaster brake is amazing. Our kids had a little trouble with coaster brakes and pedaling.
She is already in the directors chair Steve! Do you still like the Spot Mayhem for trails like Slim Shady? Or, what is your go to full suss these days? Thanks for all you knowledge and help.
short wheelbase, small tire diamter this thing screams strength without being to heavy.
This thing really needs a Fox 40
😍😍😍

Which bike would you recommend for 20' / 24' bike with front suspension? Is it possible to come out a video with your thoughts on kid bikes
Put it on the GeoMeter.
Frame looks like a little chromag 😂 She'll be a ripper for sure.
Pro's: yellow, has bell
Con's: isn't pink, no barspins
