About 700kids Balance Bike Draisienne
La draisienne 700kids est un vélo d'équilibre conçu pour les jeunes enfants qui apprennent à rouler. Le cadre, formé d'une seule pièce par moulage par injection assisté par gaz, est réalisé en nylon renforcé de fibre de verre, ce qui rend la structure légère, robuste et lisse en surface. Un repose-pieds annulaire permet aux enfants de poser les pieds pendant qu'ils glissent. Le corps est noir, tandis que les poignées, les repose-pieds et l'assise sont jaunes afin de guider la conduite et l'équilibre. L'assemblage ne nécessite que le raccordement de la tête de guidon au corps.

Behind the Design

- Unique Properties
- The body frame of 700kids Balance Bike is shaped by GAIM technology (Gas-Assisted Injection Molding). It makes the body not only stable and sturdy with light weight, but also delicate, precisely and well-stacked on surface. We focus on designing the part of footrest. As children prefer to rest their feet while they’re sliding. We could see that PI character 'O' matches the function and outside looking well. And it conveys safety, comfort and each charm to children.

- Design Challenge
- To achieve integrated molding,the main problem are materials and techniques. We study the carbon fiber, plastic, and metal. Considering the user experiences, vision effects, prices, and producing difficulty, we finally choose nylon glass fiber. With GAIM technology (Gas-Assisted Injection Molding), we have developed a high-strength plastic frame that can be mass produced.
- Research
- Before that, all the scooters were made of metal, with too many manual operations and different quality. Metal processing products are cold, lack of affinity, extremely single shape, leaving many processing traces such as welding and spraying. Our products use the GAIM technology (Gas-Assisted Injection Molding) process, so that the products have more affinity, no longer cold. The GAIM technology (Gas-Assisted Injection Molding) process brings stable product quality and reduces the artificial burden in the process.
- Inspiration
- We are inspirited by chair design, throwing the over industrialized and bulky chair products into the past, creating unique and lightweight products through unique craftsmanship, bringing the affinity and better user experience.
- Project Duration
- 11/2018: Coming with idea of a flawless balance bike.
05/2019: Finished the design of integrated form
11/2019: Sale online - Operation Flow
- The product is designed for children. The body is black; the pedals, handles, and cushions are yellow. We use yellow to guide children through riding, gliding, and maintaining balance, which lowers the learning bar. After unpacking the product, users only need to connect the handle head and the vehicle body, then it can be used.
