I want my tricycle! When I was a kid, I had a big wheels trike made of thick hard plastic. I took that thing everywhere, complete with handle bar tassels thank you very much. Nowadays living with a delicate footprint is important and thats trickled its way down to kid’s toys. Take for example the Bam Bam Baby trike. Designed out of the mindset of clean lights and small environmentally footprints, Bam Bam Baby is an alternative from injection molded plastic tricycles currently in the market. Made entirely of sustainably harvested bamboo, it’s strong, flexible, abrasion resistant, hypoallergenic, and quite aesthetically pleasing if I do say so myself.
The main body and wheels are designed to be cut out of a flat sheet. This not only makes it economical but also enables flat packing to reduce any excessive packaging. The wheel tread is made from off the shelf rubber o-rings which can be replaced easily when worn down. The pedals are made of recycled aluminum.

“哄哄小孩”---【奇客】
我要三轮车！小时候我有一个粗笨的塑料制造的大车轮的三轮车。我骑着车到处逛，车把上挂着流苏摇摇摆摆，心中充满感激。现在娇小细腻的生活节奏是很重要的，而且这种趋势蔓延到了小孩的玩具，比如“哄哄小孩”的三轮车。清洁的电源和娇小且环保的车轮，这样的一个灵感设计，“哄哄小孩”对应的是市场上畅销的塑料三轮车注模，很受欢迎。我个人感觉，因为整车都是用天然收获的毛竹，结实，柔韧，抗腐蚀，低变应原，高审美内涵。
车子主体和轮子由平板切割而来，这样不仅经济而且扁平的外壳可以减少过度的包装。车轮踏面是用现货供应的橡胶做成，这样磨损后可以替代使用。而三轮车的踏板是由回收的铝制成的。
