Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

woom bikes Launched a Lightweight Urban Commuter and Cargo-Bike Hybrid

— April 8, 2022 — Autos
woom bikes, North America's fastest-growing makers of kids' bikes, recently launched the woom NOW, a lightweight urban commuter and cargo-bike hybrid made specifically for kids. In addition to its highly versatile design, the woom NOW is equipped with a cutting-edge approach to bike architecture, called the "cycle truck," that's packed with unique features. Thus far, the bicycle has won three design awards for 2022: the Red Dot Design Award, the Taipei Bicycle Award, and the Design & Innovation Award.

Some notable features from the woom NOW bike include having a foldable front rack with a removable inlay that's ideal for transporting school bags, recreational equipment, and more. In addition, there is an integrated frame bag with magnetic closure and dual accessory mounts on the front rack.

Currently, the woo NOW is available in three sizes for children 6 - 14 years old.
