The bicycles will be launched for children upto the age of six years.

According to sources close to the development, the company is adopting new marketing strategy ahead of the launch. “We are focussing on non-traditional outlets like toy shops, gift shops, shopping malls, apart from usual cycle stores,” sources added.
TI Cycles is also opening up new show rooms for cycles in Rajkot, Surat and Vadodara. With this, the company also plans to start 'Hercules Express', a small bicycle mall.
Sources, however, denied to give further details of investment plans on this project by the company.
