GoKawiilResale used to be seen as a threat. Now companies like Woom, Lovevery, and Hanna Andersson have discovered it’s one of their cheapest customer acquisition channels. Your four-year-old needs a bike. The cheap ones from a big box store will work, sure—but they’ll be heavy, clunky, and harder for them to learn on.
