III. Core Technological Advantages

• In-house R&D capability for Italian-style pneumatic frames

Developed in collaboration with Italy’s Albert Design Studio, the frame has undergone rigorous wind-tunnel testing, and its streamlined aerodynamic design reduces riding drag. Welding tolerances are maintained within 0.2 mm, and the aluminum frames achieve a 94% pass rate across production batches—outperforming the industry average.

• Fully self-produced across all materials

Mass‑produced 6061 aluminum alloy and T700 carbon fiber frames, balancing lightweight design with exceptional stiffness; in‑house‑developed single‑chainring crankset with belt drive (compatible with your company’s two‑wheel‑drive system), offering customizable gear ratios and bottom bracket specifications.

• In-house development of the complete drivetrain

We have independently developed 46T/48T hollow cranksets and belt pulley kits, featuring a hollow‑out weight‑reduction design that balances strength with lightweight construction, suitable for folding bikes, road bikes, and e‑bikes.

• Continuous R&D investment

With annual R&D investment approaching ten million, the company holds numerous utility‑model patents covering frame structures, folding mechanisms, and transmission components. Its Victoria and RIVALE models have consecutively won innovation awards at the Shanghai and Taipei exhibitions.

• A complete supply chain in the Pearl River Delta

Rooted in South China, we seamlessly integrate frame, drivetrain, and tire components locally, ensuring high production and delivery efficiency while supporting batch customization and OEM manufacturing.
