In the kids’ mobility market, safety is the only metric that matters. We help global B2B importers and toy brands source Balance Bikes, Tricycles, and Kids’ Pedal Bikes from China’s specialized manufacturing clusters. We bridge the gap between mass production and strict international safety standards (EN71, ASTM, CPC).
Navigating China’s Kids’ Bike Clusters
Not all bike factories are the same. We source based on your brand’s positioning:
- Xingtai & Pingxiang (Hebei): The “World’s Kids’ Bike Capital.” This is the go-to region for high-volume, cost-effective steel frame bikes. If you are looking for aggressive pricing for supermarket chains, this is the hub.
- Pinghu & Ningbo (Zhejiang): Specialized in Electric Ride-ons and High-end Tricycles. These factories often have better internal R&D and focus on multi-functional stroller-bike combinations.
- Guangdong (Shunde/Shenzhen): The center for Magnesium Alloy and Aluminum Kids’ Bikes. Ideal for brands focusing on lightweight, premium designs and innovative frame geometries.
Protecting Your Brand from Compliance Risks
Sourcing baby bikes involves navigating strict regulations. We help you avoid these common pitfalls:
- Chemical Safety: Cheap plastics and paints often contain high levels of Lead, Phthalates, or BPA. We verify raw material reports and coordinate third-party chemical testing.
- Physical Hazards: Small parts that can be swallowed, sharp metal edges, or gaps that can pinch small fingers. We perform Physical & Mechanical testing based on EN71 or ASTM F963.
- Structural Weakness: Poor welding on frames or low-quality bearings in wheels. We monitor the welding quality and perform load-bearing stress tests.
- Packaging Failure: Kids’ bikes are bulky. Improper packing leads to scratched paint or broken plastic parts during transit. We supervise the Drop Test to ensure your retail boxes are “e-commerce ready.”
Kids’ Mobility Solutions We Manage
Baby Balance Bikes: Lightweight, no-pedal designs for toddlers (10-24 months) to develop coordination.
Multi-functional Tricycles: Stroller-style trikes with parent push-handles and sunshades.

Custom OEM/ODM: From custom colorways and decals to fully proprietary frame molds.
Our Comprehensive Kids’ Bike Inspection Protocol
We don’t just look at the design; we test the durability:
- Small Parts & Sharp Edge Check: Using professional gauges to ensure no choking hazards or laceration risks.
- Static & Dynamic Load Test: Applying weights exceeding the rated capacity to ensure the frame and fork don’t deform.
- Braking Performance: Testing the hand-brakes and coaster-brakes for stopping distance and ease of use for small hands.
- Material Verification: Checking the “Virgin Plastic” ratio vs. recycled content to ensure long-term durability and colorfastness.
- Assembly Verification: We randomly pick boxes and assemble the bike to ensure the instructions are clear and all hardware fits perfectly.

FAQ
Q: Do your suppliers have CPC (Children’s Product Certificate) for the US market?
A: We specifically screen for manufacturers who have experience with US or EU compliance and can provide valid test reports from accredited labs (SGS/ITS/BV).
Q: Can we customize the tire material (EVA vs. Air-filled)?
A: Yes. Depending on your target price and terrain requirements, we can coordinate with the factory to swap components like tires, seats, and grips.
Q: How do you handle the high shipping volume of bikes?
A: We work on SKD (Semi-Knocked Down) or CKD (Completely Knocked Down) packing strategies to maximize container utilization and reduce your landed cost per unit.
