"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""The jump from 7 to 8 speeds and the switch to a trigger shifter makes a real difference here. Kids who didn't have the grip strength to twist-shift will find this one clicks through gears without a fight, and that means they actually use them.""woom builds every bike around what a child's body actually needs, and the EXPLORE 5 shows what that looks like at the 24"" level. The microSHIFT Acolyte trigger shifter lets riders click through 8 gears with a single finger, which keeps hands relaxed and attention where it belongs. Promax hydraulic disc brakes with a larger 160mm front rotor deliver confident stopping power on any surface without demanding serious hand strength. Schwalbe Billy Bonkers all-terrain tires in a wider 2in profile roll fast on pavement and grip well on gravel or dirt. The adjustable stem and ABC fit guide make it easy to dial in the right position now and grow into it later. Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearheads are always here to help."
