Since we have 2 kids we never made use of it (kid brother got a hand me down Woom). I'm not sure the upcycling program makes sense since as someone else said, selling the bike used locally nets you north of 50% usually. We had someone drive down from San Francisco just to pick up our used Woom 4 off. Kids bikes that are actually used for real mountain biking actually don't wear very much. While I've had to replace chains on the smaller woom 2 and 3, I discovered that the 4 and 5 just don't seem to wear stuff out as quickly. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
