Guardian Bikes Innovates Child Bicycle Safety with Unique Braking System and Push for U.S. Manufacturing

Posted by: Schuylkill Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday, February 11, 2025

n 2022, Guardian Bikes transitioned its production from China to Seymour, Indiana, to better oversee quality control and support domestic manufacturing. Despite this move, the company continues to rely heavily on Chinese-made components, which currently constitute about 90% of their parts. Riley aims to reduce this dependency to 20% by sourcing more components domestically and plans to start manufacturing bike frames using American steel. This shift is part of a broader strategy to enhance product quality and support U.S. manufacturing.
