Donation of bicycles to children is notably driving the market growth. Through initiatives such as Bicycle for Every Child and Scale-up Cycling, numerous NGOs and educational institutions encourage children to ride bicycles. These initiatives aim to foster children's cycling behaviors in order to create a more active lifestyle. These initiatives, including Scale-up cycling, are more widespread in European nations because the continent has experienced the largest increase in bicycle use over the previous 20 years. In order to combat childhood obesity, promote outdoor activities, and aid in resolving societal concerns, many organizations throughout the world are giving bicycles to kids as part of their efforts.
Moreover, many children drop out of school because of the long distance to school and lack of availability of transport; this is one of the social issues. This is more prevalent in countries where the per capita income is low compared to developed nations. Thus, the donation of bicycles to children will drive the growth of the global children's bicycle market during the forecast period.
Advanced safety features in children's bicycle is an emerging trend shaping the market growth. The rising number of pedal cyclist fatalities has become a concern for parents. This has led manufacturers to add more safety features to children's bicycles, such as knuckle guards and night vision handlebars, which would improve visibility in low-light conditions. Also, companies are developing a more powerful braking system that will increase the safety of users.
For instance, the Indian brand Hercules launched its Black Hunter ZX range of bicycles in 2020, which is the first in the segment to include a knuckle guard. In addition, the company introduced its new range of handlebars that have an inbuilt flashlight and rear brake light, along with several other features. Thus, the advanced safety features will fuel the growth of the global children's bicycle market during the forecast period.
Safety concerns in the children's bicycle market are a significant challenge hindering the market growth. According to the European Commission, 14% of cyclist fatalities are among children between 6 and 14 years of age. This fatality rate is twice as much as the average percentage for all age groups. Children between the ages of 10 and 14 years also recorded the highest percentage (30%) of cyclist casualties.
Consequently, the rise in the cyclist fatality rate could restrict the growth of the kid bicycle market. Thus, the safety concerns will hinder the growth of the global children's bicycle market during the forecast period.
