The children's bike WOOM EXPLORE 5 is the 24-inch all-rounder for children aged 7 to 11, measuring between 125 and 145 cm. At 9 kg it stays genuinely light for its size, which is what lets a young rider handle it confidently on a climb, a kerb or a loose gravel corner.

Eight gears with a microSHIFT trigger shifter, hydraulic disc brakes and Schwalbe all-terrain tyres cover everything from the ride to school to a full weekend on the trails. Matte paint, black components and black rims keep the look sporty and uncluttered.

Ready to ride

Like every woom bike, the EXPLORE 5 is delivered without accessories - no kickstand, no mudguards, no bell. We have put together two packs so you can equip it in a single step.

For the EXPLORE 5, choose size Woom 5 for the mudguards and the rack, and size M for the kickstand.

Not sure about the size?

The EXPLORE comes in three sizes. The EXPLORE 4 has 20-inch wheels for riders of 115 to 130 cm, this EXPLORE 5 has 24-inch wheels for 125 to 145 cm, and the EXPLORE 6 has 26-inch wheels for 140 to 165 cm. Where two sizes overlap, we generally recommend the smaller one for a first geared bike and the larger one for a confident rider who is still growing.

Main advantages

  • Distinctive style: black components, black rims and a matte finish for a sporty, uncluttered look.
  • Powerful disc brakes: Promax hydraulic discs with adjustable, child-specific levers for confident stopping in all conditions.
  • microSHIFT trigger shifter: rubber-coated and child-friendly, operated with index finger and thumb for precise shifts without strain.
  • Schwalbe all-terrain tyres: Billy Bonkers folding tyres with a fine micro-block tread for low rolling resistance on tarmac and reliable grip off it.
  • Customisable frame: premium sticker sets, sold separately, let children make the bike their own.
  • Child-specific geometry: a slightly stretched, comfortable riding position that holds up over long distances.
  • Selle Royal saddle: water-resistant and sized specifically for the frame.
  • Ergonomic grips: slim, lock-on grips shaped for smaller hands.
  • ABC fitting guide: markings on the stem and seatpost make it easy to adjust the bike as the child grows.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if the EXPLORE 5 is the right size?

The EXPLORE 5 suits children between 125 and 145 cm, generally aged 7 to 11. Saddle height adjusts from 664 to 817 mm and the stem is adjustable in both height and reach, so the bike grows with the rider. If your child falls between two sizes, we are happy to advise you at L'Hirondelle Bike Shop in Meppel.

Is the kickstand included?

No. woom delivers its bikes without accessories. The LEGGIE kickstand in size M fits the EXPLORE 5 and is available on its own or in either of our two accessory packs.

Which accessories fit the EXPLORE 5?

The frame has dedicated threaded mounts: two under the chainstays for the LEGGIE kickstand, four on the seatstays for the PICKUP rack, and mounts on the fork crown, seatstays and axle nuts for the SNAP Click-On mudguards. Choose size Woom 5 for the mudguards and the rack, and size M for the kickstand.

What is the difference between the EXPLORE 5 and the EXPLORE 6?

Wheel size and fit. The EXPLORE 5 runs 24-inch wheels for riders of 125 to 145 cm, the EXPLORE 6 runs 26-inch wheels for 140 to 165 cm and uses a wider 11-34 cassette for steeper climbs. Both share the same frame concept, brakes and 8-speed microSHIFT drivetrain.

What is the maximum load?

80 kg, rider and luggage combined.
