Xiaomi has launched a new product under its
crowdfunding platform and just as was teased, the product is one for the kids.
It is a children bicycle manufactured by Riding (Xiamen) Technology Co., Ltd
who also manufactured the Xiaomi Qicycle foldable electric bicycle launched
last year.
This version is specifically developed for the kids,
with a design that is child-friendly and safe. The Xiaomi Qicycle children bike
uses an ergonometric design and is without sharp edges that could easily injure
the children. The seat is also very soft and the body covered with a protective
cover made from foam. The hand bar is designed with an anti-slip property to
make braking easy.
The Qicycle Children bike comes in two forms, one is
without pedals and then the other with pedals. The one without pedals is to aid
the child during development to learn to walk independently on his or her own.
When the child has come of age, the pedals can then be installed. Thus, the
pedals are detachable. Also, the chain is well protected that it doesn’t come
in contact with the child’s body part.
The Xiaomi Qicycle chidren bike is presently
available on the Mi home crowdfunding platform for 599 Yuan (US$ 87). The
product would ship from June 9.
