Before you buy a bike for your teenager answer these questions
Teenagers are a species unto themselves, and finding a bike that fits and they’re prepared to ride can be a challenge!
Cycle Sprog round up of 2021
As 2021 draws to a close I thought it would be good to look back on the past 12 months and remember all the important things that happened in the wonderful world of family cycling. Join me on the Cycle Sprog review of 2021!
woom Original 5
The woom 5 has a slightly more of an upright riding style than some other kids bikes and can be fitted with a kickstand and mudguards (available to buy seperately) making it good for regular commuting all year round.
However, it also has Kenda small block tyres and 8 Speed 29 T by 11-32T gearing (operated by a SRAM X4 Twist Grip) which makes it fun to ride off road too and has the gearing to get up some quite steep hills.
We’ve reviewed a couple of the smaller Woom Bikes and were incredibly impressed with the quality and attention to detail. If you think of an Austrian bike built with the same quality and attention to detail as Islabikes, then you can understand why this bike isn’t cheap, but is well worth the price tag.
