General information

Short Summary
A German company is specialising in children's balance bikes for indoor and outdoor use. Available in two sizes and four themes and colours, the bikes offer role play activities to the children. They are very light, easy to control and weatherproof. The company is offering commercial agreements to distributors and trade intermediaries in Finland, Sweden and Norway.
Full Description
The German company has been specialising in children's balance bikes for more than 15 years. The bikes are very light since they are made of high-quality polyamide and reinforced with glass fibre. They are easy to control, therefore safe, even for very young children.

In order to support children in taking part in a role play activity, the company offers balance bikes with different motifs and colours:
- The policewoman rides the blue bike
- The fireman rides the red bike
- The dragon rider rides the green bike
- The construction worker rides the orange bike

The bikes come in two different sizes for kids from 2 to 5 years. The seat height is adjustable from 37 to 45 cm. The smaller size weighs only 2,3 kg.

The balance bikes can be used outdoor as well as indoor.
They are absolutely weatherproof and waterproof (no swelling as with wooden bikes, no rusting as with metal bikes) and can therefore be left outside. The airless tyres made of foamed EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) prevent the bikes from getting a flat tyre.
Due to the easy handling, the bikes are also very suitable for use indoor. The tyres do not leave streaks on the floor.
A much shorter braking distance and the lower risk of injury in case of a fall make the German balance bikes much safer than bikes with heavy metal wheels.

The German company is looking for sales representatives, sales agents and distributors in order to find purchasers, such as kindergartens, for the balance bikes in Finland, Sweden and Norway.
Advantages and Innovations
- The German company has known the market of children's play vehicles for more than 15 years and has extensive experience with the needs of the market.
- The products are very appreciated in Germany and abroad. A much shorter braking distance and the lower risk of injury in case of a fall make the German balance bikes much safer than bikes made of heavy metal. The bikes of this German company have a reduced steering angle, which helps to prevent the children from falling since it is not possible to pull the handlebars over.
- On the website of the company, one can see comments written by kindergarten employees praising the balance bikes and their use by the children as well as the staff who have to carry the featherweight bikes to put them away.
- The balance bikes are made in Germany and certified according to EN71 (Europe) + ASTM (USA, Canada).
- The German company offers a fast and reliable processing of the bikes’ orders. It also offers helmets and spare parts such as saddles and grips.
